Job board owners can launch new niche or cross-industry aggregator website, upgrade existing job boards or add job aggregation / wrapping to current offering.
Job aggregator module: functionality
Job aggregator is a part of JobMount job board software. It can be managed via job site Admin area. Job aggregator module collects jobs from 2 types of sources:
1. XML feeds
Career sites supply jobs XML feed of a predefined format. Job aggregation module revisits feed and updates job listings. Multiple XML formats can be configured & mapped with aggregator job board.
2. RSS feeds
Job aggregator module downloads vacancy information provided by source RSS feeds. Normally, an RSS feed would offer a partial jobs listing with a limited set of job information (i.e. title, location and job description abstract).
Job spidering via HTML
Some job source websites do not provide XML or RSS to aggregate jobs from. A standalone job spider tool downloads jobs from these career sites’ pages via HTML, parses jobs content and auto-posts to aggregator job board.
Jobs database for aggregator website
Jobs collected are published under relevant employer / recruiter accounts so they can be searched & applied for by job seekers. Jobs database & recruitment functionality is provided by JobMount job board software.
Tailoring job link behavior
Consider multiple options for job title link behavior (based on various job types):
1. Redirect to original job URL (via internal redirect link for keeping SEO value).
2. Open full details on job aggregator and have Apply link redirect to source website.
3. Open full description and process application on aggregator website.
