How to Upload

Introduction

This guide is designed to assist you in uploading vacancies and managing all of the features of the content management system (CMS).

School Registration

Once registered with Jobs in Schools | North East, schools will be given password access to the portal content management system (CMS) and can then immediately upload current vacancies.

Each school will receive one set of access details which can be accessed via multiple users within the school. Please ensure that you make a note of your user name – you will need this to access your password.

The profile should read like an advertisement for your school and be written in a professional manner as a standalone item.

If you want to direct a candidate from this profile to other web pages for reference purposes, please insert a hyperlink behind the appropriate text. This looks more professional than a lengthy URL. See notes below for how to upload a hyperlink to your school description.

2. Select ADD MEDIA and choose if you want to add URL or documents
3. Enter the URL you wish to link to.
4. You can select specific text you want this to link to or type in the word you want to link to.
We recommend that only general brochures and documents about the school, and not the specific job role, are added to the school description.
Documents and application forms for each role can be added specifically to vacancies when uploading jobs.

Your School Profile

Each school should upload a profile – this will be seen by every candidate that views job details – the profile only needs to be uploaded once and can be changed at any time. This gives schools the opportunity to provide further information about their school and why it is an attractive employer to candidates.

Once you have access to the CMS please:
1. Upload your school logo. Scroll down the page and click the ADD IMAGE button. Click update. Your school logo will appear next to all job roles.
2. To change or update your school profile, simply change the text in the SCHOOL DESCRIPTION box and click update.

Uploading Vacancies

The jobs portal is designed to be user-friendly for candidates – please ensure that your job posting is comprehensive. Here are a few points to remember when creating your job posting:

  1. If you have an advertisement already, please post this into the job advertisement section so that the candidate can view the full text, rather than just a link to another document.
  2. Application forms should be uploaded to each individual job role. Avoid making candidates search out these forms through links to additional sites. Forms can be easily attached at the click of a button.
  3. There will be a button on your school description which links to the school website address that you provide in your profile – it is important to get this right.
  4. If you want to direct candidates to specific pages on your website for further information, please add a hyperlink to the relevant page – please avoid pasting in a lengthy URL.
