Overview
Refreshing your job post updates it as “new” on job boards, increasing visibility and helping you attract more applicants.
Over time, job posts lose visibility. Refreshing helps bring your post back to the top and in front of more candidates.
Why refreshing matters
Refreshing your job:
re-posts it as new on job boards
increases visibility to job seekers
helps attract more applicants
💡 Helpful note: Visibility plays a major role in today’s hiring environment. Refreshing your post can significantly improve applicant flow.

You’ll see a prompt when your job is eligible:
“Refresh post for better visibility” appears under the job title
This indicates your job can be refreshed to regain visibility.

How to improve freshness
To reach 100% freshness, update key parts of your job:
job title (most impactful)
compensation
responsibilities and qualifications
job description
💡 Helpful note: Job boards weigh title and compensation heavily, so even small updates here can significantly boost visibility.
Example update
“Outside Sales Representative – $70,000”
→ “Outbound Account Executive – $75,000+ at plan, commission”
Small changes like this can make your job appear new again.

Once your updates are complete:
confirm your freshness score is high

Your updated post will be pushed back out to job boards.
