Overview

The new job detail page in the JobShop fundamentally modernizes the presentation of job listings. Instead of rigid HTML layouts, jobs are now displayed using flexibly configurable job page templates ("templates").
This enables a consistent appearance, modern page structures, and the targeted delivery of different layouts for different target groups.

INFO: In 2026 the new functionalities will be rolled out gradually to designated customer groups and continuously expanded. The complexity of the current job pages and the overall JobShop will be taken into account. Feel free to discuss with your talentsconnect contact whether your JobShop already meets all the requirements or will be migrated in a later cohort. 

What's new? – The core concept

The job detail page is based on a new system:

Job data + Job page template → finished job detail page

In this process:

• the layout is fully controlled by the chosen template,

• the content is dynamically taken from the job data,

• the design is flexibly configurable.

Template-based presentation

Job page templates define:

• Structure and order of content elements,

• Design modules such as hero section, images, benefits, card modules,

• Display of CoreJobData and job details (e.g. location, working hours, salary, remote share, department).

Consistent and scalable design

Companies can:

• create one or more templates,

• assign jobs to a specific selected template,

• swap visual content without having to edit the jobs themselves.

Benefits at a glance

Efficiency & time savings

• Create templates once → use them as often as you like.

• Hardly any manual layout maintenance required.

• Changes to a template take effect immediately for all assigned jobs.

Consistent candidate experience

• All job listings follow a clear structure.

• Clean layouts, modular building blocks, and more easily understandable content.

• Professional employer brand presence – regardless of job volume.

Maximum flexibility

• Different templates for different job types are possible, e.g.:

  • Blue-collar / White-collar

  • Tech jobs

  • Trainee positions

  • Location-based jobs

• Modules can be freely combined and sorted.

Better conversion

• User-friendly layout improves navigation and readability.

• Attractive presentation supports the decision to apply.

• Optional interactive modules for linking to additional content (e.g. maps, benefits, image galleries).

Requirements for the applicant tracking system (ATS)

You can find out what options are available for assigning jobs to templates in the following article under the heading "How do I assign jobs to templates?".

URL structure & redirects

The new job detail pages use a modern URL schema:
/jobs/[title]/[job-ID]

Redirects

• Old URLs are automatically redirected.

• No adjustments needed on company websites.

• SEO is not affected – existing rankings are preserved.

Go-live process

Preparation

• Analysis of existing layouts

• Definition of target groups & desired templates

• Creation of the first job page template (best practice: "default template")

• Creation of all additional job page templates

• If previously in use: setting up the Fast Application (by a customer support team member at talentsconnect)

Implementation

1. Configure template(s)

2. Arrange modules and define design

3. Connect a test job to the template

4. Check the application form

5. Validate the preview

Go-live

• Activate templates

• Assign jobs

• Test redirects

• Send a communication notice to your team

Best practices

Start with one template

For the start, a single well-designed template is sufficient.
You can expand later.

Make extensive use of the preview

Make sure that:

• all job data is displayed correctly,

• optionally missing data is handled gracefully,

• images look good.

Use target-group-specific templates

If you have multiple talent groups:

• Tech jobs → modern, visuals, modular layout

• Sales → clear benefits & highlights

• Blue collar → simple structure, high readability, highlight working conditions (location, transport links, salary, etc.)

Continuously optimize

• Gather feedback from recruiting & marketing

• Monitor analytics (bounce rate, time on page, CTR on apply button)

• Update templates regularly
