This article is for administrators or assigned hiring managers.
Overview
This article explains how administrators add pay range information to job postings in Recruiting. Pay ranges help applicants understand expected pay before they apply.
Where pay range information appears
When an applicant views a job posting on your company's Careers site, the pay range appears above the Apply button.
Pay range information also appears on job board partner sites, based on each partner’s layout.
Note: LinkedIn does not currently ingest pay range details for Limited Listings created through ATS partner integrations. Paycor is working with LinkedIn and will share updates when available.
