Job ads
Job ads overview
Tandem job ads put a live role in front of more people across its job board network, paid for with a pack of purchased credits.
Applicants from an ad arrive in the role's Apply tab like any other applicant.
How job ads work
- You choose a pack and a strategy on the role's
Advertisepanel. - Tandem reserves the pack's credits for that role and uses them as the ad runs.
- The ad runs for 30 days. You can stop it sooner, and unused credits come back.
Going live doesn't start an ad, and Tandem can't start one for you. It can recommend a pack; you start the ad.
What you pay with
Job ads use purchased credits only. Plan credits can't be used for ads. If you don't have enough purchased credits for a pack, the panel shows how many more you need, and you buy credits first. Pack sizes are on the Pricing page.
Limits to know
- An ad runs for a fixed 30 days. You can't set an end date.
- You can't add credits to an ad that's already running.
- You can't change the strategy after the ad starts.
- Pausing a role doesn't stop its ad. To stop it, use
Stop advertisingor close the role.
