Up-to-date open positions with the JOIN job widget
As you may have noticed, the above career pages all use the handy JOIN job widget! And, if we do say so ourselves, this is another factor that helps to make them great.
The JOIN job widget ensures that the open roles within the company are always up-to-date and easily filterable.
Candidates can use the widget on these career pages to sort the open roles by department or location, meaning they don’t have to waste time sorting through roles not relevant to them. The widget also automatically updates whenever a job role is edited, removed, or added within JOIN itself, meaning the career page is never out of date.
The best part? It’s free, meaning you can easily integrate it into your own career page
