Steps: Configure External Career Site Sidebars

Steps: Configure External Career Site Sidebars

You can configure sidebar panels to display on the Search for Jobs and Candidate Home pages of your external career sites. Sidebars enable you to provide applicants with additional information about your organization. You can configure additional sections that include a combination of these components:
  • A Prospect Introduce Yourself shortcut (on Search for Jobs page only)
  • Images
  • Rich Text
  • Videos
You must have a valid Workday Media Cloud contract before you can upload videos. See: Workday Community: Media Cloud.
You can also configure job post template-specific sidebars that only display when users view jobs.
  1. Create sidebar configurations.
    Access 1 of these tasks:
    • Create Sidebar Configuration
      .
    • Edit Sidebar Configuration
      .
    • Copy Sidebar Configuration
      .
    Avoid using nonbreaking spaces to control the spacing and flow of text. Consider manually entering text to avoid copying and pasting in unsupported HTML characters that can impact how content displays.
    Security:
    Set Up: Career Sites
    domain in the Recruiting functional area.
  2. Access the
    Edit External Career Site
    task.
    Select the sidebar configuration from the:
    • Default Sidebar
      prompt in the
      Branding
      section for the sidebar to display on the Search for Jobs page.
    • Sidebar
      prompt in the
      Candidate Home
      section.
  3. You can configure the job posting template content with a different sidebar that displays when users click a job from the search results page.
Changes to sidebar configurations that are in use on a published external career site are effective immediately.
