Information For Job Board Owners - Introduction

Conkers.net supplies a time saving service to both recruitment agencies and companies to easily distribute their vacancy details to a number of Job Boards in a quick and efficient manner. This is extended by having the benefit of receiving the job board responses and generating statistics for the clients as to the performance of various Job Boards.

The primary benefit to a Job Board is increased exposure and the ability to affectively compete against other incumbents for traffic. Experience shows us that the success of any job board is the quality and number of jobs, and similarly the quality and number of candidates on the job board. Including the increase in the number of jobs on your web-site the following benefits are also inherently available with Conkers.net.

  • Links to your web-site to assist in your Google PageRank™, etc
  • Support for job board specific fields and new fields
  • Support for fixed locations and industries
  • Support for any form of authentication required at the poster and client levels
  • Advanced searching capabilities for companies to find job boards
  • Reciprocal marketing and exposure to clients
  • Support for any format and transport mechanism, including bespoke integration
Job Board Login

It is possible to allow job boards a login to Conkers.net. This will provide the job board with full access to the Conkers.net system, with the ability to view the job board feed and details. This is however allowed under the following restrictions:

  • You are only allowed access to perform testing of your own job board feed
  • You are not allowed to reverse-engineer or in any way copy the intellectual property invested in Conkers.net
  • You cannot add arbitrary job board account details
  • You can only post to your own job board web-sites
  • Apply for a job board login
The Process

The integration starts with the job board defining their needs in terms of the data they require, and the format they would like to receive the information. If the job board does not have any bulk facilities available Conkers.net can supply advice from their knowledge of feeds built before (often XML over HTTP is advised). The Conkers.net posting system remains flexible to support full bespoke integration where other methods are not available which can include interacting with the Job Board's web-site as if it is a web-browser.

Although HTTP/S is the preferred delivery method due to the fact that the posting sucess/failure result is known immediately, there is support for FTP and E-Mail (attachment or in the body). In terms of the format XML, CSV, ATDG and any other conceviable format is supported across all feeds. We also have the ability to mould the data to suit your needs.

If you are interested in integrating your job board with Conkers.net, please fill in the application form and we will do our best to assist you. Alternatively, please E-Mail support@conkers.net.
