Bulk Ingestion for Job Description Template
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Organizations that standardize job descriptions centrally often hold hundreds or thousands of titles in an external system of record, and that content changes on a regular cycle. Job Description Template is available as an entity in File Ingestion, so you can create, update, and remove templates from files. One feed carries the full definition of a template: its name, its sections, each section's required and editable controls, and the section content for every language and posting audience. You can upload the files in the Admin Console, or place them on SFTP and let Eightfold collect them on a schedule.
WHY IT MATTERS
Keep Eightfold aligned with your own source of truth for job description content, on whatever cycle that source changes.
Build and maintain a full title catalogue of templates from a single set of files.
Run the same feed on every cycle and have it match the templates already in Eightfold, so repeat syncs keep one template per title.
Carry multi-language content, and separate internal and external versions, in the same feed.
Retire a template and have its job code links cleared with it, so recruiters don't open a job code that points at a template that isn't there.
