Employer users have the ability to sign-in to MNSchoolJobs.org and make modifications to job postings that have been imported from the employer’s applicant tracking system (ATS.)

This can be useful if the source ATS does not support additional fields on job postings that are part of the industry-based standard used by MSJ. Some examples of fields often absent from the source ATS are employment type (FT, PT, substitute, casual, etc. ), salary, application instructions, geographic location, and so on.

In these cases, an employer can “disconnect” an imported posting from future import operations.

Automatically Imported Posting (blue sideways-fork icon)

After “disconnecting”, posting no longer imported (gray sideways-fork icon)

Postings that have been disconnected from automatic import will retain all changes made directly on MNSchoolJobs.org. Changes made in the ATS will no longer overwrite the posting, EXCEPT the published state. Closing this posting in your ATS will also close the posting on this site.
