What job boards does Trakstar Hire integrate with?
Hire has integrations with job boards to simplify job posting. These connections can be enabled or disabled for the entire account. When enabled, all job openings will be shared with the job boards, and applications will go to your Trakstar Hire account.
We have built-in integrations with the following:
- Free
- Indeed+Glassdoor
- LinkedIn (free)
- Recruit.net
- Adzuna
- Zoek
- Paid
- Snagajob
- Ziprecruiter

How do the free job boards work?
A Super Admin can enable the connection to the free job boards via Settings > Job boards & Publishing > Job Posts Settings.
For your openings to syndicate to the free job boards, you must have your hosted site enabled:
Scroll down and select the job boards you would like your current and future published openings to post to.
Before enabling the job board, ensure that your company email address is set up under your 'Company Profile.'
From within an opening, you can then confirm that it is being sent to the enabled job boards via the Job Board tab.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the job boards suppress job openings? If so, why?
Job boards may suppress your job postings if you request excessive personal information such as Social Security number, driver's license number, bank account numbers, etc. This can make your job look like a scam and drive away applicants. If this information is required, consider asking it later in the process or after the candidate is hired with a follow-up questionnaire!
I want to post a paid/sponsored job for Indeed or LinkedIn - how do I do that?
While our integration with Indeed and LinkedIn allows you to share free postings, there is a way to link your sponsored ads on Indeed and LinkedIn to Hire. Below are the instructions for each:
How long does it take for a job to appear on the job boards once published?
It can take 24-48 hours from the time you publish an opening until the job boards pick up the opening.
Do the jobs expire? If so, how can I refresh a job?
Once an opening has been posted for more than 30 days, it can lose visibility on job boards like Indeed, LinkedIn, etc. We have an option for you to refresh these openings! You can follow these steps to refresh your jobs.
I refreshed a job after 30 days but the original publish date is showing - why?
Refreshing the job opening pulls it to the top of the job board's feed, but it will maintain the original post date. So if you published the job in Hire in December 2023 and then refreshed it in Trakstar Hire today, you'll see the job on the top of Indeed's feed, but the original post date of December will be visible. If you archive the job, and then create a new job in Hire, it will have a new "posted" date.
What is the difference between paid and free job board pushes?
Some of our job board pushes allow both paid sponsorship and a free push. The paid sponsorship allows your job to receive more hits as it is bid out to searchers. The free push gets your job traffic without the cost!
