Job Errors & Status Notices

Careers job posting errors and status notices

Errors Notice: The Job Posting Errors area displays helpful notices when required information is missing or incomplete. These messages do not prevent the job from being published or displayed, but they indicate details that should be reviewed or updated for best results. Errors may highlight missing fields, incomplete job data, or items that could affect job feeds or applicant clarity. Each message explains what needs attention so you can make improvements as needed.

Status Notice: The Job Status panel displays the current state of your job posting—such as whether it is open, closed, expired, scheduled, or archived. This section also shows when the job will be published or hidden based on the display dates you set. You can update the job status manually or rely on automatic updates triggered by the start, close, and expiry dates.
