# Profile customisation

Your JOIN profile and career page are key tools to showcase your company to potential candidates. By customising your profile, you strengthen your employer brand, attract more applicants, and make the hiring process easier.

Companies using the JOIN career page or the JOIN job widget have seen 30% more applications and 40% less manual workload for updating openings and managing applications.

A complete and visually appealing profile helps you stand out, improve search visibility for your jobs, and attract the right candidates faster. Remeber to:

* Keep your company description unique and keyword-rich to boost SEO ranking.
* Refresh your benefits and values regularly to reflect what matters most to your team.
* Use authentic photos of your office and employees—candidates value transparency.

### Company details

The first step to profile customisation is setting up your company details.

1. Go to `Settings` in the sidebar menu.
2. Select `Company details`.
3. Update the following information:
   * **Company logo**: Upload a logo with a minimum size of 224x224px so it displays correctly across all devices.
   * **Company name and website**: These appear in your job ads and give candidates direct access to your site.
   * **Number of employees and industry**: Helps candidates understand your company size and sector.
   * **About your company and mission**: Write a unique description (200–400 words recommended) to improve visibility in search engines and provide a compelling introduction.
   * **Benefits and values**: Choose from a list to highlight what makes your workplace attractive (e.g. remote work, training, diversity).
4. Once finished, click `Save changes`.

### Career page

Your JOIN career page is autogenerated and always up to date with your company details and open positions. This page can be shared directly or linked to your company website as an additional application channel.

1. In `Settings`, select `Career page`.
2. Customise the following:
   * **Image gallery**: Add office or team photos to make your company culture visible. Companies that add images typically see higher engagement and more applications.
   * **Videos**: Embed YouTube videos to showcase your workplace.
   * **Visibility options**: Enable `Spontaneous application` to allow candidates to express interest even if no suitable job is listed. You can also link an email template to handle these applications efficiently.

### Job Widget

The JOIN Job Widget is a powerful tool to keep your website’s career section automatically updated. It displays your active jobs from JOIN directly on your site, saving time and ensuring your listings are always current.

You can access it under `Settings` > `Job Widget`. There you will find three tabs: `Settings`, `Design`, and `Included jobs`.

#### Settings tab

In the `Settings` tab you can:

* Enable filters for `Category`, `Location`, and `Employment type`
* Select the widget interface language
* Decide how many jobs are shown per page
* Choose what details are displayed on job cards (logo, location, employment type, category)

Use the toggle switches to enable or disable each option.

#### Design tab

In the `Design` tab you can adjust the look of your widget to match your website.

Options include:

* Background colour
* Filter borders
* Pagination style
* Job card styles such as background, border, shadow, and text colours

Click `Preview design options` to check your changes at any time.

#### Included jobs tab

The `Included jobs` tab allows you to preselect which jobs appear in the widget. You can filter by:

* Category
* Location
* Employment type

This ensures that only the roles you want to highlight are shown on your website.

#### Adding the Job Widget to your website

Once you have finished customising, embed the widget into your website:

1. Go to `Settings` > `Job Widget`.
2. Copy the code snippet from the `Embed code` box.
3. Paste it into your website’s CMS in the desired location (e.g. a career page section).
4. Make sure to paste the snippet in **source code mode** without deleting existing content.
5. Save and refresh your website. Your new job listings will appear instantly.

The widget automatically synchronises with JOIN, so your career page always displays your latest openings without extra work.
