Reopening a Job

Reopen a previously closed or archived job and make it live on your job portal

Written by Bill Rogers

You can reopen previously closed or archived jobs at any time. You can't reopen a deleted job, as this action is permanent.

Closing or archiving a job preserves all candidate and job data, which will remain intact when the job is reopened.

When you reopen a job:

  • Job boards treat it as a new post with an updated opening date.

  • Confidential jobs stay confidential, so only candidates with the direct application link can apply.

  • Candidates with accepted offers aren't affected.


Reopening a Job

To reopen a job:

  1. Expand Jobs in the left-hand menu.

  2. Select Manage Jobs.

  3. Open the three-dot menu (⋯) to the right of the job you want to reopen.

  4. Select Open.

Your job will be made available again on your Careers Site.

ℹ️ Note

Reopening a job doesn't send notifications to employees.


Reopening a Filled Job

If a job is filled, you need to increase the headcount before you can reopen it. This doesn't affect candidates who have already accepted an offer.

To reopen a filled job:

  1. Open the job you want to reopen.

  2. Click Edit.

  3. Increase the Headcount.

  4. Click Save.

If needed, you edit the job again and set the Headcount back to the original number.
