Extremely light weight and does the job needed well.By default, the search doesn’t look great but can be updated through templates. The search itself doesn’t show parameters in the URL so you can never link to custom searches or categories. You can only ever link to the main page list page. The author will state you can use the default wordpress search to find posts but this doesn’t allow you to search by the categories and other search settings.Additionally, applications post the title of the job but does not add a link back to the job. This means if you have multiple jobs with the same title, you won’t know which one the candidate actually applied for. For me, posting similar jobs with different pay and hours, this makes application management impossible.

This is a simple plugin, that is easy to use and set up. It really suits a small business, voluntary group, or personal site where there is not much demand for jobs as you will be the person handling the responses to your own site. If you are in a HR dept. and are going to be dealing with many job applications on a daily basis, you may need something more powerful. But for the average small business, charity, church or voluntary group this is really ideal. You have to create two pages. (1) Create a ‘Page’ e.g. called Jobs. Then click to add a shortcode box from the standard WP drop-down menu. (2) Go to your Dashboard and open the plugin. Copy and paste a ‘shortcode’ from the plugin main page back into your Job (standard) page. (3) Then create a new job i.e. ‘Add New’ from the Job Manager menu e.g. ‘programmer wanted’ (4) Publish both your main WP ‘Job’ page and the actual ‘Programmer Wanted’ page within the Job Manager menu as well. It is important to know that if you do the above you have to publish them both before you see them active in your website. You should also make sure you have the ‘Job’ page included in your main menu, so that it is visible on your site. Visitors can them click on the ‘Job’ menu, go to the ‘Job’ page and contained within that will be a short summary of the job. When they click on that they will be taken to the full job description page created in the plugin. Hope that helps? If in doubt the support team are very prompt and helpful. I hope they continue to create new plug-ins.

This plugin is very simple and within few steps we have added our job vacancies. It works well with our SEO plugin RankMath and well structured schema. WOuld like to see these features in future updates; 1) Option to change buttons ( apply now & read more) color and text 2) option to align the job listing to center, left, right 3) Option to receive email to admin from all the job applied

As a start-up we don’t have many job postings so I was looking for something simple, that could scale, look professional and be search-able. Job Manager was the ticket! Super simple implementation with intuitive post-like structure, and looked great on the page. I had a small issue with the “Apply Form” position, but their support team helped me fix within a day. Highly recommend!
