Attract the right candidates: create and publish your job offers with Odoo Recruitment
Recruiting also means knowing how to attract the right
candidates.
And a well-written, clear and visually appealing
job advertisement
can make all the difference.
Good news: with Odoo, there's no need to juggle
multiple tools or wait for a webmaster to
publish your listings.
The Recruitment application is directly connected to your website, allowing HR to publish, edit and highlight their job offers independently.
Publish your job vacancies with a single click
From the Recruitment application, you can choose for each position whether it should be visible on the website or not.
Simply activate the publication, and the offer will instantly appear in the ‘Careers’ section of your website.
You can then :
- Write the job description,
- Indicate the location, contract, department,
- Add the HR contact or link to the application form.
Everything is automatically updated on your website, without any technical intervention.
Create an attractive job advertisement using the Odoo web editor
One of Odoo's major strengths is its integrated website editor.
Directly from the interface, you can customise the layout of your job advertisements with visual and dynamic blocks.
For example, you can :
- Add images or banners to illustrate the working environment.
- Insert icons to highlight benefits (teleworking, meal vouchers, flexibility, etc.).
- Create clear, well-spaced blocks of text to give the content breathing space.
- Include action buttons (“Apply now”, “Meet our team”),
- Or even add employee testimonials.
Everything is done by simple drag and drop, no technical skills required.
The result: professional job offers that are consistent with your brand image and, above all, more appealing to candidates.
Some best practices for an attractive job advertisement
1. Start with a clear and precise title.
A well-named position attracts more qualified candidates.
Avoid vague titles (“Digital Superhero”) in favour of specific titles (“Digital Communications Officer”).
2. Pay attention to the introduction.
Describe your company, your values and your mission in a few sentences.
Candidates want to know who you are before applying.
3. Structure the content.
Odoo allows you to use blocks to separate :
- The main tasks,
- The skills sought,
- Benefits and corporate culture.
4. Add human visuals.
Showcase your teams, your premises, or moments in the life of your company.
A natural image is often better than a long corporate text.
Become more responsive and autonomous
One of the great advantages of Odoo is that HR can manage everything themselves.
No need to wait for another department to publish or modify the offer: you can update content in real time, adjust a detail, change a photo or correct a mistake in a matter of seconds.
And if you want to advertise the vacancy elsewhere (LinkedIn, Indeed, Welcome to the Jungle, etc.), you can share the direct link to the page created on your Odoo site.
Result: your offers are always up to date, aligned with your image, and published without delay.
A smooth and professional candidate experience
When a candidate visits your website, they can:
- Browse all available offers,
- Read the detailed descriptions,
- And apply directly online.
The Odoo application form is simple and customisable: you choose the fields to be filled in (CV, cover letter, LinkedIn, availability, etc.), and applications arrive directly in your Recruitment app.
Each new application automatically feeds into the pipeline for the relevant position.
You can then follow up with the candidate, communicate with them, and schedule interviews, all without ever leaving Odoo.
Testimonial: smoother and more attractive career management
Before Odoo, publishing a job advertisement on a website required several back-and-forth exchanges with the communications department.
We had to send the text, approve the formatting, wait for it to go online...
With Odoo Recruitment and the integrated website, I can create, edit or remove a job offer independently.
In a few minutes, it will be visible on our ‘Jobs’ page.
I also enjoy being able to make our offers more vibrant: adding photos of the team, highlighting our advantages, or including testimonials.
This better reflects our culture and attracts people who are like us.
And since all applications arrive directly in Odoo, there is no need to go through multiple platforms: everything is centralised and tracked.
In summary
The Odoo Recruitment application connected to your website allows you to:
- Create and publish your job vacancies in one click,
- Customise their layout to make them more appealing,
- Manage applications directly in Odoo,
- And provide a smooth and modern candidate experience.
It is a comprehensive solution for more autonomous HR and a stronger employer brand.
