How do I edit a listing, and will it go offline?

Open the listing in your account and press Edit. Changing what a reader sees (the title, description, field, city, employment type, pay, language or deadline) sends a live listing back for a check, and it is off the board until it passes.

Edits that keep it live

  • The street address and postcode: they help Google place the job and are not shown on the page.
  • Adding an 18+ requirement: it only narrows who applies.

Edits that send it back for a check

Everything a reader sees. The check is usually quick, and the applications you already received stay in your inbox.

Actions that are not edits

Closing, extending and bumping do not change the text and need no check. Reopening a closed listing does go through the check again. See How long does a listing run? and What is a bump?.

Good to know

If our team set the 18+ requirement, you cannot remove it yourself. Write to us if you think it should not apply.
