Share job positions

In Odoo Referrals, users can earn referral points by sharing job positions with potential applicants. Job positions can be shared in several ways, through the {ref}View Jobs <referrals/view-jobs> button and the {ref}Email A Friend <referrals/email-jobs> button, located at the bottom of the Referrals app dashboard.

:::{note} Sharing jobs can only occur after onboarding slides have been viewed or skipped. :::

View Jobs

To see all job positions that are actively recruiting candidates, click the {guilabel}View Jobs button on the main Referrals dashboard. This presents all job positions, with each individual job presented with its own card.

:alt: |-
:  The 'View Jobs' screen, displaying all current open job positions. All information is
:  displayed on the card.

Each job position card contains the following information:

• The title of the job position. This information is taken from the Job Position field of the job form.
• The number of {guilabel}Open Positions being recruited. This information is taken from the Expected New Employees field of the Recruitment tab of the job form.
• The points a user earns when an applicant applies for the position.
• The job description detailing the job position. This information is taken from the Job Position tab of the job form.

To see all the details for a job position, click the {guilabel}More Info button on the specific card. This opens the job position webpage in a new browser tab. This is what an applicant sees before applying for a position.

:::{note} Only published job positions are visible in the Referrals app. To check which job positions are published or not, refer to the {doc}../recruitment/new_job documentation. :::

Refer friends

To share a job position with someone, click the {guilabel}Refer Friend button on the specific job position card. A pre-configured {guilabel}Send Job Offer by Mail pop-up window appears. Enter the recipient's email address in the {guilabel}Email field.

The {guilabel}Subject and {guilabel}Body are populated using a default template. The {guilabel}Subject Job for you is present, by default, but can be modified, if desired.

The specific title of the job position populates the Job Position placeholder in the email body. The See Job Offer text in the email body is an individualized tracking link to the specific job position listed on the website.

When the prospective employee receives the email, the link sends them to the job position page, where they can apply for the position, and the person who referred them is tracked in the Referrals application.

If desired, add any text or closing salutation to the email body. When all edits have been made, click {guilabel}Send Mail to send the email, or click {guilabel}Cancel to close the pop-up window.

Share a job

Other than sending an email, job positions can be shared, via social media platforms, and by tracking links to the job position. At the bottom of each job position card are four icons, and corresponding tracking links, that can be used to share the job position, keeping track of applicants in the Referrals application.

Link

To share the job position with a customized tracking link, click the {guilabel}Share Now button with the {icon}fa-chain {guilabel}(link) icon above it. A {guilabel}Link to Share pop-up window appears with the tracking link. Click {guilabel}Copy to copy the link. After the link is copied, click the {guilabel}Close button to close the pop-up window. Next, share the link with the prospective employee.

Facebook

To share the job position using Facebook, click the {guilabel}Share Now button with the {icon}fa-facebook {guilabel}(Facebook) icon above it.

If the user is already logged into Facebook, when the the {guilabel}Share Now button is clicked, a {guilabel}Share on Facebook page loads in a new tab, with the link populated in the main body of the new post in a pop-up window. If the user is not already logged in, a log-in screen loads, instead, prompting the user to log-in to Facebook first.

Type in any additional information to add to the post, then share the job position using the available options in Facebook.

X (formerly Twitter)

A job position can also be shared on X. Click the {guilabel}Share Now button with the {guilabel}(X) icon above it.

If the user is already signed-in to X, when the {guilabel}Share Now button is clicked, an X page loads in a new tab with a pre-populated message ready to post, in a draft pop-up window. If the user is not already signed-in, a sign-in screen loads instead, prompting the user to first sign-in to X.

The default message is:

Amazing job offer for (Job Position)! Check it live: (link to Job Position)

Type in any additional information, or make any edits to the message, then share using the available options in X.

LinkedIn

To share a job position on LinkedIn, click the {guilabel}Share Now button with the {icon}fa-linkedin {guilabel}(LinkedIn) icon above it.

If the user is already logged into LinkedIn, when the {guilabel}Share Now button is clicked, a new tab loads in LinkedIn, with a link to the job position at the top. If the user is not already logged in, a log-in screen loads instead, prompting the user to log-in to LinkedIn first.

The job position can be shared either in a public post, or in a private message to an individual (or group of individuals).

Type in any additional information, or make any edits to the message or post, then share using the available options in LinkedIn.

Email a friend

Another way to share job opportunities is to share the entire current list of open job positions, instead of one job position at a time. To do this, navigate to the {menuselection}Referrals main dashboard. Click the {guilabel}Email a friend button at the bottom of the screen. A {guilabel}Send Job Offer by Mail pop-up window appears.

Enter the email address in the {guilabel}Email field. The email can be sent to multiple recipients by separating each email address with a comma followed by a single space. The {guilabel}Subject is pre-configured with {guilabel}Job for you, but can be edited.

The email {guilabel}Body is also populated with pre-configured text. The text that appears is:

Hello,

There are some amazing job offers in my company! Have a look, they can be interesting for you\:

See Job Offers

The {guilabel}See Job Offers text is a tracking link to a complete list of all job positions currently being recruited for. Add any additional text and make any edits to the message body, if necessary. Then, click {guilabel}Send Mail to send the email. This sends the message, and closes the window.
