Besides, you get to learn more information about the job position, the company and even check out the competition. Also, if you’re an employer looking for new employees things are a lot easier for you as well, given that you can quickly access CVs and decide on the best candidates. So if you’re looking to create your own job board website without having to write any code, you can use WPJobBoard.

WPJobBoard is a WordPress plugin that can help you enhance your simple blog and turn it into a highly functional job board, without necessarily limit it to a job board, so you can still keep a blog and your community as well as add a professional job board.

Here are a few things you should know about WPJobBoard.

It is fully compatible with any WordPress theme, so you can choose anything you like, as well as try “Jobeleon” the default theme of this plugin. Also, the plugin integrates with all WordPress frameworks, such as Genesis, Thesis, Headway or WooFramework.

WPJobBoard also comes with a built-in PHP templating engine that allows you to redesign your job board pages. If you’re already a WordPress developer you’ll find the structure and code to be very familiar which will make it even easier for you to customize your layouts.

The plugin also has an intuitive visual editor that gives you complete control over the entire layout: job listings, resumes and application forms can easily be created with the simple built-in drag and drop system.

One of the best feature that WPJobBoard offers is SEO. The plugin increases page views and link popularity by instantly syndicating your job listing on sites such as SimplyHired, Indeed and Juju.
