Publishing a vacancy with a hidden link means the job advertisement is not visible to the public through regular channels (e.g., job boards or your career site), but can still be accessed by anyone who has the direct link.
This is useful in situations such as:
- You want to share the ad with a specific candidate without making it publicly available.
- A candidate needs to update their application after the deadline due to incorrect contact details or other issues.
- You’re conducting a targeted recruitment and don’t want the vacancy to be broadly advertised.
How to publish with a hidden link:
- Remove all publication channels (e.g., external job boards, internal listings).
- Set the publication date to the current date or a future date, depending on when you want the link to be active.
- Copy and share the direct link with the intended recipient(s).
Only those with the link will be able to view and apply for the position. This ensures privacy while still allowing flexibility in the recruitment process.
