Job Distribution: Where Your Posting Actually Appears

Markup vs. a feed vs. a guarantee

These are three different things, and the difference matters:

• Structured markup means we embed job-posting data (schema.org JobPosting fields) in the HTML of your public listing page, so Google's crawler can read and understand it. This happens automatically on every public job, on every plan, including Free. It does not submit anything anywhere — it just makes the page machine-readable.
• A feed is a URL that lists your jobs in a format a job board can import — on Scale and Corporate, we generate a per-employer feed URL for Indeed and for ZipRecruiter. Having the feed URL is not the same as being listed: you still register that feed with Indeed or ZipRecruiter yourself, following their process.
• A guarantee of placement, ranking, or visibility is not something any of this provides. Whether Google surfaces your job in Google Jobs, or whether Indeed/ZipRecruiter index and display a submitted feed, is entirely up to that platform's own crawling, indexing, and ranking — not something ResumeTailored controls or can promise.

Channel-by-plan matrix

"✓" means the channel is available on that plan — not that a given job is currently live there. Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and LinkedIn all require a manual step from you (below), and Google decides for itself whether and how to show markup.

What each channel actually is

Google Jobs structured markup — all plans, including Free. Automatic on every public job listing. This is markup, not a submission — Google's own crawling and ranking decide if and how a listing appears in Google Jobs. There's no action required from you.

Indeed feed — Scale and Corporate. You get a per-employer feed URL. You register that feed with Indeed yourself, following Indeed's own process; listings then appear organically, with sponsored promotion as an optional, separate choice you make with Indeed. We don't call Indeed's API or submit anything on your behalf.

ZipRecruiter feed — Scale and Corporate. Same model as Indeed: a per-employer feed URL, registered with ZipRecruiter by you.

Glassdoor — rides on Indeed, Scale and Corporate. Glassdoor exposure comes through the Indeed feed once that's set up; there's no separate Glassdoor configuration.

LinkedIn — a manual share action, Scale and Corporate. This is the one we're most careful about: LinkedIn does not currently offer us an open, automated posting API, and we don't have confirmed partner status with LinkedIn. So what's available is a one-click share link that generates a pre-filled LinkedIn post for you to publish from your own LinkedIn account. It is not an automatic posting, not a partnership, and we will not describe a job as "posted on LinkedIn" until that changes — sharing is what's real today.

Requirements and what's still manual

• Distribution beyond Google Jobs (Indeed, ZipRecruiter, Glassdoor, LinkedIn) requires a Scale or Corporate employer plan.
• The Indeed and ZipRecruiter feeds are per-employer — each employer registers their own feed URL with each board; this isn't centrally submitted for you.
• LinkedIn distribution is a manual share action you take from your own account, not an automated post.
• Publishing a job post at all requires pay transparency — a wage or a good-faith wage range — before it goes live.

Beyond these, we don't have verified details on every eligibility or geographic requirement each individual job board may apply on their end (for example, Indeed's or ZipRecruiter's own review process for a submitted feed) — that's between you and the board once you register your feed, and we'd rather say that plainly than guess.

Listing lifecycle

A published job listing runs for 30 days by default. About a week before it expires, you get a reminder. A listing is never auto-closed or silently extended — closing, renewing, or editing it is always your call.
