Job Aggregator Software

JobMount job aggregation platform: job aggregator module, fully featured job board software and job spider technology combined. Job aggregator spiders job listings via XML, RSS and updates vacancies’ content on a job board.

Increased job numbers facilitate new revenue generators
Job aggregator allows job board owners to compile a substantial number of jobs in a short period of time and with minimal effort, thus helping achieve significant job seeker visits from search engines via SEO. This traffic can be converted to revenue for job board owners through various advertising initiatives.


Launch new aggregator or upgrade current job board
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).

Multiple source XMLs formats mapping
Various sources’ XML and RSS files can be mapped to job board database fields.

Single or Multiple feeds for each Employer
Multiple sources of jobs can be used for each Employer account.

Manual & automated jobs update
Update the jobs by running aggregator manually or do scheduled updates daily.

Sync mode
Provides exact match of jobs downloaded instead of adding those to currently live positions.

Duplicate check
Aggregator will not post duplicate jobs.

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.

Alternative Job Board Pricing Models

Job board owners can now upgrade their service offering to include two key payment models – client “pay per application” or “job seeker payment for subscriptions”.

Pay Per Application (pay per performance, pay per response)
Your job board clients would only pay for their jobs’ performance: application details viewing. Payment system can be setup so employers purchase “application credits” which are used when employer views applicants’ resume submittals. Accompanied by job wrapping service this model will benefit job board Search Engine Optimization by increasing relevant content favored by Google and thus add to organic job seeker traffic.
Review example: applications viewing control & configuration.

Job seeker payment for subscription
Job board owners may offer various job seeker subscription plans for industries where jobs are in demand. This feature allows job board to hide jobs fully or partially and provide access to employer contacts and application option for subscribers only.
Review example: job seeker pays for subscription to apply /  view employer contacts.

Seamless upgrade
JobMount will provide a seamless and cost-effective upgrade of your solution: copy look & feel, migrate data and improve your features (post to Twitter, SEO dashboard, job spider, bulk posting, etc.).
