In recruiting, every small advantage matters. Whether you’re an independent recruiter or running a growing agency, your ability to attract qualified candidates quickly can make the difference between landing a placement fee and missing out. One of the most overlooked tools in your arsenal is your Careers Page.

And if you’re using TE Recruit®, the top-rated all-in-one ATS and CRM for recruiting agencies, you already have everything you need to turn it into a high-performing candidate magnet.

Too many recruiting agencies treat their careers page as an afterthought: a generic job list buried at the bottom of their website. But what if your careers page could work for you, not just sit there? What if it could automatically attract the right candidates, showcase your clients’ open positions, and give job seekers an application experience that feels modern, mobile-friendly, and intuitive?

That’s exactly what TE Recruit’s Careers Page feature delivers . . . and it comes standard with your ATS subscription at no additional cost.

Let’s walk through how it works, what sets it apart, and how you can maximize its potential to grow your recruiting business.

The Hidden Cost of an Outdated Careers Page

Most recruiters already know they need a place on their website where candidates can browse open jobs. But too many are stuck with outdated “job board” technology that requires technical setup, looks clunky on mobile, and forces candidates to fill out endless forms.

Here’s the problem:

• Complex setup: Legacy job boards often require code snippets or CSS knowledge.

• Poor customization: Branding options are limited, leaving your page looking mismatched with your agency’s site.

• Minimal features: Candidates often can’t filter jobs effectively or easily share openings.

• Weak candidate experience: Long or broken application forms cause drop-offs.

In today’s job market, where candidates have dozens of opportunities at their fingertips, that poor experience can cost you placements.

The Solution: TE Recruit’s Careers Page

TE Recruit flips the script. Instead of requiring technical work, the Careers Page is plug-and-play. Instead of nickel-and-diming you with hidden fees, it’s included free in your subscription. And instead of frustrating job seekers, it makes applying simple and intuitive.

Here’s what you get:

• Instant setup: Just point the “Search Jobs” link on your website to your TE Recruit Careers Page. No coding required.

• Full customization: Use a point-and-click theme editor to match your branding, colors, and style.

• Mobile-first design: Your page looks great on phones and tablets right out of the box.

• Enhanced candidate experience: Features like resume parsing (so applicants don’t need to retype their information) make applying quick and painless.

• GDPR & CCPA compliance: Built-in privacy controls ensure that you stay compliant.

Best of all, you control the entire experience directly from inside TE Recruit’s applicant tracking system.

Setting Up Your Careers Page in Minutes

Here’s how to get started:

1. Access Careers Page Settings
   From TE Recruit’s sidebar or settings dashboard, click on Manage Careers Page. (Note: only agency owners or users with permissions can manage it.)

2. Customize Your Theme
   Use the theme editor to select your brand colors, update button styles, and adjust featured job highlights. You can even add custom header and footer text to share important details with candidates.

3. Control Filters
   Remove irrelevant filters (e.g., contract vs. direct hire if you only do one type). Add country filters if you work internationally. Choose whether or not to display compensation ranges based on local laws.

4. Post Jobs
   From your Job Order Data Sheet (JDS), select “Advertise” and click Post. Jobs require only three fields: title, description, and location (or remote). You can also mark jobs as Featured to keep them at the top of the list.

5. Share Jobs on Social Media
   With one click, generate status updates for LinkedIn, Facebook, or Twitter to promote jobs and drive traffic back to your Careers Page.

That’s it—you’re live!

Power Tip #1: Custom Forms for Better Screening

Recruiters know that not every job requires the same information from applicants. For a Healthcare role, you might need license details. For Engineering, you might need software proficiencies. That’s where Custom Forms come in.

Available on TE Recruit’s Professional Tier, forms let you:

• Decide which fields appear on an application.

• Require mandatory questions.

• Customize forms by job type (e.g., Healthcare vs. Engineering).

• Add both standard ATS fields (like salary requirements) and custom fields you create yourself.

• Collect free-form responses with custom questions (“Why are you changing jobs?”).

The result? More qualified candidates, better client submissions, and less time wasted chasing missing information.

Power Tip #2: Quick Links That Drive Candidates Back

Imagine being able to send a candidate a link that always shows your latest open jobs in their specialty—automatically updated in real time. That’s exactly what Quick Links provide.

Examples:

• A link for “Remote Engineering Roles” that updates whenever you add or close jobs.

• A link for “Healthcare Contract Positions” you can send quarterly to your database.

• A link in your email signature that says “View Our Current Structural Engineering Jobs.”

These links can be shared via email, LinkedIn, or even in text messages. They’re dynamic, meaning the results update automatically as your jobs change.

Supercharged Tip: The Power of TE Recruit’s Split Network

Want to take it even further? With TE Recruit’s split network (TE Network), you can share jobs across a nationwide network of vetted recruiters. That means:

• Your website can display not only your own jobs, but also relevant openings from Network partners.

• Candidates who apply through your site are still added to your database.

• If a placement results from a network job, you earn a 50/50 split of the fee.

In other words, even if your clients slow down hiring, you can still present candidates with a rich set of opportunities and keep them engaged with your agency.

Why This Matters: Turning Visitors Into Candidates

Think of your Careers Page as your digital storefront. Just like a retail shop wants clean windows, clear signage, and easy checkout, you want:

• A professional first impression: Candidates trust recruiters who look established and modern.

• An easy way to apply: Resume parsing, mobile design, and short forms reduce drop-offs.

• Ongoing engagement: Quick Links and featured jobs keep candidates coming back.

• Scalability: Custom forms and the split network help you adapt as your business grows.

Recruiters who ignore their careers page are leaving placements on the table. Recruiters who optimize it with TE Recruit can turn it into a candidate-generating machine.

SEO Benefits of a Strong Careers Page

Beyond candidate experience, there’s another huge benefit: search engine optimization (SEO). Each job you post becomes a keyword-rich, indexed page that helps your agency rank higher on Google. This means:

• More organic traffic: Candidates searching for “[Job Title] in [Location]” can land directly on your site.

• Better local visibility: Recruiters serving niche industries or geographies can stand out.

• Stronger authority: A consistent flow of job postings signals to search engines that your site is active and relevant.

By regularly posting jobs and linking them through Quick Links, you’re not just filling positions. You’re building long-term visibility.
