ZipRecruiter is an available job board to automatically post jobs organically! Within a few clicks, you can opt-in to distributing jobs to ZipRecruiter.
Configuration
The ZipRecruiter feed will first need to be a selected job feed in Job Settings. Click here to learn more.
Enable the feed
- After the feed is added, return back to the Job Manager landing page.
- Open Job Distribution from the left panel.
- A disclaimer will display every 30 days to users who navigate to the Job Distribution section. Click the x icon or Done in order to show your acceptance of the third party opt-in.
- Toggle on the ZipRecruiter toggle.
- In the modal that opens, enter the following details:
-
ZipRecruiter Company Name – This field’s purpose is to set a Source Name value within the ZipRecruiter Feed that identifies and associates a job to the proper company within ZipRecruiter. This field will default to the account’s Public Company Name.
- Note: If you are using Multi-branding, the job posting can include the brand name and individual ZipRecruiter Email to display to candidates.
- ZipRecruiter Email – Your point of contact (POC) email address that is used by ZipRecruiter’s Trust and Security Team to ensure the legitimacy of the job postings and prevent fraud. This field is required. This contact will not be emailed, but their email address will be used for legitimacy purposes.

- Click Next.
- A new page of the modal will display legal verbiage about utilizing ZipRecruiter when it is opened for the first time the feed is enabled. It will also provide you two options for distributing to ZipRecruiter. Standard will be the default option and provide a standard organic offering that will redirect candidates to the job posting page to apply to the job. Click Confirm.
- Note: When selected, all jobs will be added to the multi-source feed as a standard job.
- Select Save in the top right corner of the section.
ZipRecruiter will then be enabled for your account and enabled jobs will start posting to ZipRecruiter within 30 minutes.
Job posting process
Jobs are sent to and from ZipRecruiter via API instead of a job feed, allowing them to be posted within 30 minutes instead of an hour. Job data is sent on a per job basis, so if you turn on, update, or close a job, it'll take up to 30 minutes for that job to be added to, updated on, or removed from ZipRecruiter, respectively.
FAQs
Can you customize the information brought over?
This data cannot be altered as it currently meets requirements of ZipRecruiter.
Can you send job data externally?
This feed cannot be sent externally, as it is a master feed with many of your different jobs.
Does this job board support the Multilingual feature?
Yes – this will follow the same logic we support in the Standard Job Feed. We will display a separate job for each language that is translated and append the language code to the Apply URL and referencenumber nodes.
What countries does the Standard ZipRecruiter feed support?
US, CA, AU
What happens if the same job is sent to ZipRecruiter from more than one source? (i.e. from our organic job distribution + advertising agency)
If they are the exact same posting with identical info, then it’s highly likely the organic job will be suppressed until the paid job runs out of budget. They do give a slight ranking boost to ZipApply jobs, but that’s usually not enough to win out over a paid job. Meaning, they will give organic Paradox ZipApply jobs a ranking boost, but probably not enough to get it prioritized over the same paid job. With that being said, they will handle the de-duping from our end, so it is okay to send over duplicated jobs.
Is this more of a guaranteed partnership where jobs will actually post to the job board like they do for Indeed and clients can reach out to ZipRecruiter to sponsor?
ZipRecruiter does have a self-service portal for the process of creating an account, however, they don't have any similar self-service options for connecting jobs from a partner ATS's feed to that account. This process would be managed through a consultation with the customer's account manager. If they haven't yet been assigned an account manager, they can call their support folks at 877-252-1062 or email support@ziprecruiter.com and have their jobs imported to their account from the feed we provided and then eventually pull jobs and enable the integration.
