Why it makes sense to have multiple application portals
It makes sense to have multiple application portals if you wish to present different job categories separately.
Typical examples include:
separate portals for employees and apprentices
a separate portal for each location
a separate portal for each division or business unit
an internal application portal, e.g. for the intranet
an external application portal, e.g. for the public website
In addition, different application portals can also be operated with different designs.
Accessing online application portals
Open ‘Settings’ in the menu.
Under ‘Module recruitment’, select the menu item ‘Online application portals’.
You will now see an overview of your existing application portals.
Create a new application portal
You can enter a new application portal directly from the Online Application Portals overview.
Open the Online Application Portals overview.
Click on the + in the top right-hand corner
Use the three dots and ‘Rename’ to give the new portal a suitable name.
Then configure the desired settings.
Preview & Drafts
This feature has not been available for very long (as of 12 August 2025). Older customers have not yet been able to use this feature.
When publishing job vacancies for an application portal, you can also use ‘Preview & Drafts’.
This feature is useful if you wish to check published job vacancies as a preview first, before they become publicly visible.
This allows you to check how an advertisement is displayed without it being visible to everyone as normal.
Tip: For preview, test or draft portals, it is advisable to also activate the setting ‘Prohibit search engines and web crawlers from using content from this portal’.
General settings
1. URL
The online application portal can be accessed via this URL. Once jobs are published on the portal, they will be displayed.
The URL is also required if you wish to embed the application portal on your own website.
2. Block search engines and web crawlers
Activate this setting if you do not want search engines and web crawlers to use the content of this portal for their job platforms.
This is particularly useful for preview, test or draft portals.
3. Application portal design
Under ‘Application portal design’, select the desired template.
You can find out how to design a new template here.
4. Height of the ‘Website Header’ in pixels
If the application portal is embedded as an iFrame on a website, a gap is often required for the website’s menu or header.
You can define this gap here in pixels. The default value is 100 px.
5. Additional job portal languages
For accounts with multiple recruitment languages, you can select additional languages for the application portal.
Applicants can then change the language displayed for the job advertisements and the input mask for the application portal themselves.
6. Language
Define the Main language of the application portal.
If no other language is selected, the portal and the jobs will be displayed in this language by default.
Job Overview
Here you define which search, sort and filter options are available to applicants in the job overview.
1. Show search field
Activate this setting so that applicants can search through the published jobs using a search field.
2. Show default sort order
Activate this setting so that the sort function is displayed in the job overview.
3. Define default sorting
Here you can specify the criteria by which jobs are sorted and displayed by default.
The following sorting options are available:
Alphabetical: Sort by job title
Location: Sort by job location
Job type: Sort by jobs for employees or apprenticeships
Start date: Sort by job start date
4. Define filter options
Here you can specify which filter options are available in the job overview.
This allows applicants to filter the displayed jobs more precisely according to the defined criteria.
5. Show additional labels on the job overview
Activate this setting if you want labels such as apprenticeship, internship or employees to be displayed additionally in the job overview.
6. Show logo on the job overview
Activating this setting displays the logo of the relevant location alongside the job in the job overview.
Rename, send instructions for or archive the application portal
You can manage existing application portals directly via the menu with the three dots.
Click on the three dots next to the desired application portal.
Select the desired action:
‘Rename’
‘Send instructions for the application portal’
‘Archive application portal’
