Understanding Job Templates
Learn how job templates standardize descriptions across roles and locations while automatically populating details like job name and wage rate.
Overview
Job templates make it easy to maintain consistent, on-brand job descriptions across multiple positions. They use variables—such as
[Job Name], [Wage Rate], or [Location]—to automatically populate the right information for each posting.
- Ensures consistent branding and messaging across all job postings
- Automatically fills key job details using account and job data
- Saves time by reusing proven job description formats
How Job Templates Work
- Each job can have its own unique description or use a shared template.
- When you apply a template, it automatically fills in the description with pre-approved corporate content and dynamic variables.
- Templates can be corporate-managed (read-only) or custom versions created by your organization.
- If you modify the text directly in a job description, Sprockets automatically unlinks that job from the template—keeping the original version intact.
Tips
- Corporate templates cannot be edited directly but can be copied for customization.
- Use descriptive names for templates (e.g., "Front Desk – Spa Template") to make them easier for team members to find.
- To manage templates, go to Company Settings → Job Postings.
