Job posting rules and templates

Channels

When making a post, make sure you select the right channel:

  • #jobs: you offer a job
  • #job-search: you look for a job
  • Job related messages from other channels will be removed
  • Messages that don’t follow the rules will be removed

Rules

  • Follow the template
  • Job must be relevant and specific (see relevant jobs)
  • Clearly specify if you’re an agency
  • No agencies for #job-search
  • Jobs should be posted with a link to a public job description, company, or a public person/profile
  • Please read our full community guidelines

Templates

For #jobs:

<Short description of who you want>

Company: <company name>
Position: <position>
Type: full-time, part-time, freelance (optional)
Location: <City, Country> or remote within <Country/Countries> or remote anywhere
Salary: <range> (optional)

<Link to the page with more information>

<Best way to contact you>

<Anything else you want to add>

How to use it

  • Replace the <placeholders> with your content
  • Feel free to skip the optional parts
  • Make sure it’s not too long. If it’s long, give the most important information in one message, and put the rest in the thread
  • Don’t copy-paste the entire job description. Just share the link - it’s sufficient in most cases
  • Try to keep the formatting (e.g. bold fonts)
  • Don’t be sloppy and follow the punctuation rules:
    • Use “:”, not “;”
    • There should be no space before “:” and a space after “:”
  • Currently no template
  • Make sure the message isn’t too long (doesn’t exceed one mobile screen)
  • The job you’re looking for must be one of the relevant ones
