How to post a confidential job?

Confidential postings can be useful for hiring for sensitive roles, such as executive positions, or for roles related to unannounced strategic plans or restructuring.

What is a confidential posting?

A confidential posting is a job advertisement shared on a job site without revealing the identity of the hiring company.

Before posting a confidential job through any ATS

  • Contact your Relationship Manager or JobTarget Support for guidance, especially if the ATS partners with JobTarget.
  • Not all partnerships support confidential job postings.
  • We can provide the necessary information and support.

Familiarize yourself with the specific requirements of job sites

  • Ensure compliance with job site requirements that accept confidential postings.
  • This will help ensure successful placement.

If using Programmatic+ or Programmatic360

  • Consult with your dedicated Relationship Manager or JobTarget Support before posting confidential jobs.
  • Consider creating the job directly within JobTarget for complete confidentiality.
  • Avoid any connection with your careers center by not using a job connected to your ATS.

For detailed instructions

  • Refer to the Job Manager User Guide for steps on adding and posting a new job.
  • Ensure you check off the anonymous post box within the job create field below the job title.
