The guide below will introduce you to the format of HigherMe job templates and help you customize with confidence! For more tips on writing a great job posting, click here. Not sure if you should update a template or a specific job? Read more on the difference here.
Now, let's get started! First, head to your Templates page under the Settings tab. Click on any existing template title to open its editing pane. We'll use this as an example.
Each template has 7 segments, which you can click into from the panel on the left:
- Details
- Locations
- Availability
- Questions
- Candidate score
- NextMatch AI
- Interview Rounds
We'll go over each below!
| βοΈ Details |
|
First, set or update the job title. Keep it short and to the point! Then...
You'll also see an important question on this tab: Would you like to publish this job? You can choose if you want to create an active posting based on this template ("Yes") or if you want to leave it in the drafts for now. Read more about hiring statuses & how to manage job ads here. |
| π Locations |
|
View which of your store locations this template is currently deployed to, and add other locations to the template as needed. |
|
π Availability |
|
|
Enter in your shift needs in the Availability tab. First, turn ON the days where you have shifts to fill. Add up to 4 shifts per day, using the plus icon and the trash icon to add and remove ranges of time. |
|
|
Checking Critical next to a shift indicates that it is a priority hiring need and should have a greater impact on candidate scores. |
|
|
The shifts you add in the Availability step are not visible to the applicant. We use your Availability answers to calculate a candidate score for each applicant (how well their availability matches your needs). If you have a shift need that you want applicants to know about, consider including that in the job description or requirements under the Details tab! |
|
| π¬ Questions |
|
Add any supplemental questions to your job template. Select from our repository of common questions or create your own! These questions will appear for applicants to this job at ALL locations it is deployed to. |
|
Tip: less is more! Too many job questions can affect your application completion rate. Our advice? Keep your questions short and sweet, limit your questions to 6 or fewer for a given job, and use short response questions sparingly. For more job posting tips, click here. |

Looking for NextMatch AI questions? These can be added on the job level, not the template level. Visit your Hiring Hub or your legacy Jobs dashboard and open any job to edit it. |
| π― Candidate score |
| Adjust your scoring preferences for this role. Learn more here! |
| β¨ NextMatch AI |
| NEW! Set up AI screening for this role. Learn more here. |
| π Interview rounds |
|
NEW! Set up multi-stage interviews to match your unique hiring process for each role. For example, you might start with a screening call and progress to an in-person interview with a manager. You can title these whatever you'd like! Manage these stages from the Interview Rounds tab of a job or template. |
|
|
|
Once multiple interview stages have been configured, those rounds will appear as sub-tabs on the Interviews tab of any applicable jobs in your Hiring Hub. Below is an example of a job with three interview rounds: HR call, Technical, and Culture Fit. The numbers in parentheses show the candidate counts at each stage. |
