Why should you customize your job data?

  1. The fields you put on the job data in TRAFFIT will be available for all your users.

  2. Every field you put there will become a filter, allowing you to filter and sort jobs based on this attribute.

  3. All the fields you put in your job data can be available via API and can be put on your career page.


How to do that?

Go to Settings -> Custom fields configuration -> Job -> Job data:

The right menu allows you to choose new fields to be put in job data:

  1. Defined fields - system fields, collecting data used in other parts of the system (described below).

  2. Empty fields - that can be customized however you want.

  3. Sections - allowing you to add sections to organize your jobs' data.

You can place the fields and sections in the job data using drag'n'drop:

If you want to add a new section to your job data, drag'n'drop it first to be able to add fields to it. After putting a new section to your job data you can change its name or assign a color to it:

If you add a new field to the job data, your TRAFFIT will allow you to choose:

  • the field size

  • if a value in this field is required

  • if this field will be available in the API (for empty fields):


Defined fields

These are the fields used by other parts of the system and on which their logic is based.

Only "Job title" defined field is required in the job data.

Optional defined fields (examples):

a) Reference number - a uniquie job's ID, allowing you to differentiate jobs with the same title on the list.

If you put this field in job data and the user creating a new job doesn't fill it in, it will be filled in automatically with a unique number.

b) Remote job - checkbox type of field. Required for job posting on Linkedin Jobs.

c) Client - it will be available only when CRM module is turned on. It will allow you to assign a client from your CRM to this job.

d) Job type - a field with a dictionairy assigned, allowing you to choose a value from a predefined list:


Empty fields
