Creating a copy of a job advert

If you have several job adverts you wish to upload that are very similar and only need a few changes, such as location, you can do this easily by creating a copy of a job advert. Once this advert is copied you can quickly make the change and then save the new vacancy.

  1. From your find a job account, choose the advert you ant to copy and click ‘edit’.

  2. Confirm it’s the right job, then click ‘create a copy’.

  3. You will then see a ‘create a new job’ page, with all the vacancy information completed – make any changes needed, such as the location or job reference.

  4. Once you are happy, select ‘post job’.

  5. Your new job advert is now live and available to people searching the site. If you’ve changes the location, it will now appear in local searches in that area.
