Locations

This article explains how locations work, why they matter, and how to add, edit, or delete them.

Locations are more than just addresses—they help ensure your jobs are properly distributed and displayed on relevant location-specific job boards. Here's how adding locations to your account can help:

• Pre-fill job creation forms with location data, saving you time
• Help candidates understand where the job is based—even for remote or hybrid roles
• Increase visibility on job boards, many of which require precise city and country details

Each job can be linked to one location, and you can manage unlimited locations in your account.

Even fully remote jobs benefit from having a location linked. Some job boards require a country or postal code, which JOIN pulls from the default location if no other is set.

Add a new location

You can add locations in two places: via Settings or directly within the Job editor.

From Settings

1. Go to the Settings tab
2. Click Locations
3. Click the Add location button in the top right
4. Fill out the form:

   • City and Country are required
   • Street name, House number, and Postal code are optional but recommended
   • Add a name in Location name to help distinguish it
5. Use the Default location toggle if you'd like this to be selected automatically when creating jobs
6. Click Save changes

JOIN does not allow more than one location per city. If you try to enter a city already used, you’ll receive an error.

From the job editor

1. Create or edit a job
2. In the Additional information section, click Add location next to the Location dropdown
3. Fill out the form as described above
4. Click Add location

The new location will be automatically assigned to the job you're editing.

Set a default location

The default location is automatically selected when creating new on-site or hybrid jobs.

To set or change it:

1. Go to Settings > Locations
2. Click Edit location on the relevant location card
3. Toggle on Default location
4. Click Save changes

Even for remote jobs set as Remote from anywhere, JOIN may still need to send a country to job boards. In these cases, the default location’s country is used.

Edit a location

1. Go to Settings > Locations
2. Click Edit location on the location card you wish to update
3. Make your changes and click Save changes

Changes take effect immediately in JOIN and on your career page. Job boards may take up to 24 hours to reflect the updates.

Delete a location

1. Go to Settings > Locations
2. Click the bin icon on the location you want to remove

If the location is assigned to jobs:

1. A popup will appear asking you to select a replacement location from a dropdown
2. Select a replacement location
3. Click Remove location

JOIN will reassign all jobs to the selected replacement and then delete the original location.

You cannot delete a location that’s currently in use unless you reassign all jobs to a different location. You also cannot delete a location that’s set as the default location — assign a different default first.

Assign a location to a job

You can assign a location during job creation or editing:

1. Go to the Additional information section in the job editor
2. In the Location dropdown, choose from existing locations
3. If needed, click Add location to create a new one directly from this view

Location assignment rules by job type:

Job type	Location requirement
On-site	Location is required
Hybrid	Location is required
Remote (specific country)	Choose from countries of existing locations
Remote (from anywhere)	No location required, but a country may be pulled from default

A job can only be assigned one location. To list a job in multiple locations, create separate job ads for each.

View and manage locations

Each location card shows:

• Name and address
• Job count (top right corner of the card)
• Buttons to Edit location or delete it

Other tools:

• Use the Per page dropdown at the bottom to display up to 100 locations at once
• Locations with assigned jobs will appear on your career page, including job counts

To preview this:

1. Go to Settings > Career page
2. Click Preview
3. Scroll down to see all locations and associated job counts

FAQs

Can I manage multiple companies or locations in one account?

Yes, you can create a JOIN account for your company's main location and then add additional locations to the same JOIN account. This can be done by creating additional locations in Settings → Locations and assign them to jobs.

However, creating an agency-like structure with multiple companies under one account is not possible at the moment. Each company can have one JOIN account, but adding more companies under a single holding is not supported yet.
