Create a Job Post
Post new roles, reuse existing templates, or set up quick assessment-based job posts in Discovered.
Overview
The Job Post feature is your starting point for attracting and evaluating candidates. Discovered gives you three ways to create a job post:
- Start from scratch with a brand-new posting
- Copy an existing job post to save time
- Create a Quick Job Post to assign assessments without a full campaign
Each option ensures you can launch postings efficiently while keeping details accurate.
How to Create a Job Post
1. Create from Scratch
- From your dashboard, click the big green Create Job Post button.
- Fill in the required details, including:
- Job Title
- Job Type
- Additional job information (description, requirements, etc.)
- Save your changes to create the job post.
2. Copy from an Existing Job
- Hover over the arrow next to the Create Job Post button.
- Select Copy from Existing.
- Choose an active or archived job post to copy.
- Click Select, then Submit.
- A new draft job post will be generated with the same information as the original.
- Edit the copied details (e.g., change “Salesperson” to “Sales Manager”) before publishing.
Tip: This option saves time when hiring for similar roles, ensuring consistency while allowing edits.
3. Create a Quick Job Post (for Assessments)
- Navigate to Assessments in the top navigation bar.
- Select the assessments you want to send to candidates.
- Click Send assessment.
- Click Create an assessment pipeline and send a link.
- Enter:
- Job Title (can be assessment-based, e.g., Behavioral + Cognitive Test Candidates)
- Job Type (choose the category so benchmarks are applied correctly)
- Click Create Job Post and Get Link.
- A candidate link will be generated for sharing.
Note: If you lose the link, click Assessment Links within the job post to retrieve it.
Why This Matters
- Consistency: Copying existing job posts maintains format and details across roles.
- Speed: Quick Job Posts let you send assessments without building a full campaign.
- Customization: Edit details as needed to match each role’s requirements.
Use Cases
- You’re hiring for a new role and want a fresh job post.
- You’re hiring for a role similar to an existing one and want to copy details.

Best Practices
- Always review and edit copied posts to avoid outdated details.
- Use descriptive job titles to help candidates quickly identify the role.
- For Quick Job Posts, keep track of assessment links for smooth candidate communication.
What Happens Next
- Once published, your job post will appear in your Discovered careers page and connected job boards.
- Candidates can apply, take assessments, and enter your hiring pipeline immediately.
- You can return anytime to edit or duplicate the post as your hiring needs change.
