How do I post a job?

There are two ways to post jobs to Inside Higher Ed. You can come to the Web site and enter individual ads, or you can automatically upload jobs.

Posting individual jobs

Click here to post a job via the Web site. You'll be asked to register (or log in if you've already registered with Inside Higher Ed) and then to fill out a simple job posting form. You can pay by credit card when you post, or we'll happily send you an invoice. We'll review your ad and get it up on the site within one business day (jobs posted Friday after 12:00 noon EST may not be posted until Monday morning).

Automated job postings

Inside Higher Ed recognizes that smart recruiting can involve a lot of data entry - posting jobs on Web site after Web site is time consuming and inefficient. Now Inside Higher Ed offers a solution - a direct feed from your jobs database to ours that eliminates the need for a single keystroke to post jobs.

Automated job postings require a bit of technical work on your end to get things started, but once in place there's no work at all involved in posting jobs. Inside Higher Ed has built a SOAP-compliant API that can interact directly with your jobs database (I know, pretty geeky, but the folks who can help you make this happen will know just what it means). With a bit of assistance from your IT department, it's a simple matter to set up a daily feed of all your job postings, or to allow users to tag individual jobs posted to your Web site for automatic cross-posting to Inside Higher Ed.

Inside Higher Ed has done API integrations for many clients using the PeopleAdmin applicant tracking system (learn more on PeopleAdmin's Partners page), as well as Hodes IQ, Arbita, First Advantage HMS, and several home grown databases.
