The Quickest and Easiest Way to Find and Share External & Internal Job Links
BrightMove gives you multiple ways to share job opportunities, either directly from the job itself or through your internal or external job portals. While the sharing process is similar across use cases, the type of portal you select determines who can access the job.
This guide walks you through:
How to quickly find the direct internal/external job link on any posted job
How to share your full internal and external job portals
How to share a direct link to a specific internal or external job
Finding Direct External & Internal Links from the Job Profile
Once your job is posted, the easiest way to grab a shareable link (internal or external) is directly from the Job Profile.
Open the job in BrightMove.
Scroll down the left-hand “baseball card” section to view job details.
Locate the Job Sharing / Posting area.
Under Direct Link to Job on Candidate Portal, use the dropdown to choose either the Internal or Externalportal link.
Note: Internal and External portals require configuration. If you only see one option, contact your Account Configurer or review Creating a Candidate Experience Portal to set up additional portals (if you have access). If you cannot see both Internal and External options, it may be due to the job being configured incorrectly. Ensure the job's visibility settings align with the intended portal. For example, jobs posted with the Public Web Description are restricted to the Public portal. Adjust the settings as needed to enable both options.
Copy the link displayed beneath the dropdown and share as needed.
This section provides quick access when you want to promote an individual job internally or externally without navigating into portal settings.
Other Ways to Share Job Opportunities
Below are the full workflows for sharing external and internal job portals, as well as sharing direct links to a specific job, depending on your audience.
Sharing External Job Links (Public Portal)
Use these options to make jobs publicly accessible on your website, job boards, or social media.
Share the Full External Job Portal
To make all public openings visible:
Go to Settings > Candidate Experience Portals
Find the portal labeled Type: Public and marked as Default
Confirm the portal is:
Active
Secure (SSL Enabled)
Click the Copy Link icon to copy the public job portal URL
This link will display all jobs that are marked Publish to Web. To modify the visibility of a job after it has been published, deselect the "Publish to Web" option in the job's profile. This will remove the job from the public portal.
Share a Direct Link to a Specific External Job
To promote a single public job:
Open the job’s Profile > Job Description tab
Fill in the Web Description
Enable Publish to Web
Scroll to the Job Sharing / Posting section in the left-hand baseball card
Under Direct Link to Job on Candidate Portal, select the Default Public Portal
Click the Copy Link icon If you cannot select the Default Public Portal, ensure the job is configured with the Public Web Description and marked as "Publish to Web." Misconfigured settings can restrict the job's visibility on the public portal.
You can use this link in email campaigns, recruiter outreach, or social media.
⚠️ Note: This link includes a refresh=true parameter and is not ideal for permanent embedding on your website. For long-term placement, link to your main Public Portal homepage instead.
Sharing Internal Job Links (Employee Portal)
Use these options to make jobs visible only to current employees.
Share the Full Internal Job Portal
To give employees access to all internal-only openings:
Go to Settings > Candidate Experience Portals
Find the portal with Type: Employee
Confirm the portal is:
Active
Secure (SSL Enabled)
Click the Copy Link icon next to the portal name
Employees using this link will see all jobs marked Publish to Internal in the job’s Internal Description settings. If you need to modify the visibility of a job after it has been published, you can adjust the "Show on Portal" setting in the job's profile. Unchecking this option will remove the job from the portal it is currently displayed on.
Share a Direct Link to a Specific Internal Job
To promote one particular job:
Open the job’s Profile > Job Description tab
Ensure the Web Description is filled in
Switch to the Internal Description tab and enable Publish to Internal
Scroll to the Job Sharing / Posting section in the left-hand baseball card
Under Direct Link to Job on Candidate Portal, select your Employee Portal
Click the Copy Link icon If you cannot select the Employee Portal option, verify that the job is not configured with the Public Web Description. Jobs posted publicly are tied to the Public portal and require reconfiguration to be shared internally. Follow the steps above to switch the job to the Internal portal.
Share this link through internal channels like email or chat.
⚠️ Note: This direct link contains a refresh=true parameter and is best for short-term use. For long-term internal posting, link to your Employee Portal homepage instead. If you encounter issues with portal configuration, ensure that the Internal portal is active and properly set up in the Candidate Experience Portals settings. Misconfigured portals can prevent proper sharing of job links.
Troubleshooting and Modifying Job Visibility
If you need to adjust job visibility or resolve portal configuration issues, follow these steps:
To switch a job from Public to Internal, deselect the Public Web Description, complete the Internal Description, and publish it to the Internal portal.
To modify visibility settings, use the "Show on Portal" option in the job's profile.
Ensure portals are properly configured in the Candidate Experience Portals settings to avoid sharing issues. If you experience issues with public portal configuration, verify that the portal is active, secure (SSL enabled), and set as the default in the Candidate Experience Portals settings. Incorrect configurations can prevent proper sharing of job links.
