Job Posting Schema Generator

Is JobPosting markup eligible for a Google rich result?

JobPosting markup makes a job eligible for Google’s job search experience. Google requires a title, description, posting date, hiring organization and job location (or, for remote jobs, applicant location requirements).

About Job Posting structured data

JobPosting markup is how a job listing gets into Google’s job search experience, where candidates can filter by location, type and date. It is one of the most tightly specified types, and Google’s job guidelines are strict: the description must match the page, expired jobs must be removed or marked with an expiry date, and the salary must be real.

If you run a job board or publish your own vacancies, the markup lives on the page for each individual job, not on a list of jobs. This generator produces the JSON-LD for one job at a time.

Common Job Posting schema mistakes

• Putting the company, location or dates in the job title. The title should be the position only, such as “Senior Accountant”.
• A description that only repeats the title. It must describe the job: responsibilities, qualifications, skills and hours.
• Leaving validThrough off a job that has a closing date. If the posting expires, you must say when, and you should remove the markup or update it when the job is filled.
• Marking a remote job with a location but no applicant location requirement. Fully remote jobs use jobLocationType TELECOMMUTE and at least one country in applicantLocationRequirements.
• Adding estimated salaries. baseSalary should be the actual pay the employer offers, not a market estimate.
• Lower-case or made-up employment types. Values are case-sensitive: FULL_TIME, PART_TIME, CONTRACTOR, TEMPORARY, INTERN, VOLUNTEER, PER_DIEM or OTHER.
• Keeping markup on pages for jobs that are no longer open.
