# Managing Job Postings

> Create, configure, and manage job postings in the TalentUnveiled HR portal

The [HR portal](https://hr.talentunveiled.com) is where you create and manage all your job postings. This guide walks through creating a posting, configuring screening questions and interview settings, and managing your jobs day-to-day.

## Creating a Job Posting

Navigate to **Job Postings** in the sidebar and click **+ Create Job Posting**. You'll see two options:

* **Create with AI** — Paste a job description or upload a PDF, and TalentUnveiled will pre-populate the posting fields for you
* **Create Manually** — Start from a blank form

Both options take you through the same multi-step wizard.

### Step 1: Job Details

Fill in the core information about the role:

| Field                  | Required | Description                                                           |
| ---------------------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Job Title              | Yes      | The role you're hiring for                                            |
| Location               | Yes      | Where the role is based                                               |
| Employment Type        | Yes      | Full Time, Part Time, Contract, Internship, or Freelance              |
| Language               | Yes      | The language the AI interviewer will use                              |
| Minimum Salary         | No       | Lower end of salary range                                             |
| Maximum Salary         | No       | Upper end of salary range                                             |
| Currency               | No       | Salary currency (defaults to USD)                                     |
| Require CV             | No       | Whether candidates must upload a CV — Required, Optional, or Disabled |
| Job Description        | Yes      | Full description of the role (supports Markdown)                      |
| Additional Information | No       | Internal context for the AI interviewer (not shown to candidates)     |

Click **Next** to save and continue.

<Info>If you chose **Create with AI**, most of these fields will already be filled in from your imported job description. Review and adjust as needed before continuing.</Info>

### Step 2: Evaluation Criteria

Configure the criteria the AI will use to score candidates during interviews and CV evaluations.

* **Default Criteria** — Pre-configured global criteria that apply to all jobs (read-only)
* **Manual Criteria** — Custom criteria specific to this role

For each custom criterion, you can set:

| Field         | Description                                                     |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Criteria Name | What the criterion measures (e.g., "Technical Problem Solving") |
| Description   | Detailed explanation of what the AI should evaluate             |
| Category      | Technical, Behavioral, Role Specific, Culture Fit, etc.         |
| Score System  | Scoring scale (e.g., Out of 5)                                  |
| Weight        | Relative importance compared to other criteria                  |

You can also use **AI Import** to generate criteria suggestions by uploading a job specification PDF.

### Step 3: Interview Questions

Add the questions your AI interviewer will ask candidates. Each question is a free-text field — write them as you would for a human interviewer.

* Click **+ Add Question** to add more questions
* Use **AI Question Generation** to let the AI suggest questions based on the job details
* The estimated interview duration updates automatically based on question count

### Step 4: Interview Configuration

Set the final interview parameters:

| Field          | Description                                                                                             |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Interview Mode | Whether candidates interview via **Web** (booking + browser) or **Phone** (system calls directly)       |
| Auto-Outreach  | Automatically call imported candidates to help them schedule (Web mode only)                            |
| Retries Limit  | How many times a candidate can retry the interview. Leave empty for unlimited retries                   |
| No-Show Action | What happens when a web candidate misses their interview — Phone Callback, Rebooking Link, or No Action |
| Max No-Shows   | How many times a candidate can no-show before being marked as exhausted (Web mode only)                 |

<Info>See [Interview Modes & Candidate Journeys](/concepts/interview-modes) for details on how these settings affect the candidate experience.</Info>

* **Kanban** — Drag-and-drop cards between status columns (Applied, Screened, Interviewed, Shortlisted, Hired, Rejected) to change a candidate's status
* **List** — Tabular view with sortable columns

Click any application to open the [application detail page](/guides/managing-applications#application-detail-page).

When the job is active and public, a **Copy Public Link** button appears — use this to share the candidate-facing application URL.

### Job Details Tab

View the interview flow details, evaluation criteria, and job posting metadata in a read-only format. To make changes, click the **Settings** button in the header.

## Job Posting Settings

Click the **Settings** gear icon on any job posting to open the settings dialog. The settings are organized into five sections:

### Job Details

Edit all the fields from the creation wizard, plus:

| Status    | Change between Active, Paused, Closed, or Draft                          |
| Is Public | Toggle whether candidates can see and apply to this job via a public URL |

### Screening Questions

Configure pre-screening questions that candidates answer as part of the application process. For each question, set:

| Field       | Description                                                       |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Question    | The question text shown to candidates                             |

| Options     | Available choices (for Single Choice and Multi Choice types only) |
| Knockouts   | Auto-rejection rules for disqualifying answers                    |

Each **knockout rule** has an operator (e.g., Equal, Not Equal, Greater Than, Less Than) and a value. When a candidate's answer matches a knockout rule, it is flagged on their application. You can see flagged answers on the candidate's Pre-Screening tab.

<Info>Learn more about question types and knockout behavior in the [Application Lifecycle](/concepts/application-lifecycle#pre-screening) guide.</Info>
