Publishing Job


Publishing a job in Skima AI allows you to create a public job listing, configure screening questions, track candidate sources, and collect applications directly into your screening workflow.

Publishing helps recruiters:

  • Track candidate source performance more accurately
  • Maintain a structured and branded hiring experience

Before publishing a job, you first need to locate the role inside the Jobs section.

  2. Use available filters such as: location, recruiter, client, or created date to quickly find the required job.

  3. Under the 'Actions' column, click on the three dots menu and select 'Create Public Page'.
