Description

The Career Builder addon connects job listings from WP Job Manager to the CareerBuilder network, synchronizing job postings with CareerBuilder’s candidate database to expand reach beyond the site. The integration runs in the background whenever a listing is created or updated in the panel, preventing manual duplicate entries and keeping listings mirrored between WordPress and the external recruiting portal.
