Formatting Tips for Job Posting

While the career center does not currently offer the option to upload a job post from a document, you can create, copy, and edit your ad on the career center platform. 

Please keep in mind that the career center uses a a fairly plain-text model for ads. The system won't copy over over images, tables, boxes, scans, or screenshots because the system doesn't recognize these items as being text. 

Best practice when copying is to copy from a file with limited formatting. Some adjustments can be made through the in-post editor for things like bold, italics, underlining, and bullet points that may not have carried over from your copy. Some additional tips:

• If you are having some trouble getting spacing to stay in place, try holding down shift while hitting the enter button. This will "hard code" the space in and should help it from reverting.
• It will sometimes help to take sections of the ad and cut/paste them into a basic text program like your computer's note/memo pad. This can help strip any hidden coding so that you can paste the info back in plain text. 
• If you are familiar with HTML, there is a section in the editor which will pull up the background markup language so you can make adjustments to things like bullets, bold text, alignment justification, font size, etc. We do not recommend using this portion of the editor if you are not familiar with HTML.
• Attachments, such as flyers, cannot be added to the advertisement. If you have the documentation hosted publicly, though, you are welcome to ad a link to it in your advertisement.

The key for best success will be to keep your text, font, and style simple!
