# Broadcast job openings to your followers

New roles submitted by hiring managers post to your Page with the title, location and where to apply.

When this happens

New submission on your Post a job form

Do this

Create a Page post on Facebook with the role and apply link

One-directional. A submission triggers the action — nothing is written back into your form.

Hiring pages get stale because posting a role is a separate chore from opening it. When the requisition form is the thing that starts the process, the Page post can come out of the same submission — title, location, hours and where to apply.

Recruiters and office managers at places without an applicant tracking system use this most; the requisition also carries pay bands, cost centres and internal justification, so the mapping is deliberately narrow. Only the fields you pick reach Facebook, and everything else stays in your responses.

## Setting it up

1.  1
    
    Publish the Job Requisition Form and treat it as the single place a new role is opened.
    
2.  2
    
    Add a URL field for the application link, or decide that every post points at the same careers page and type that address into the Zap by hand.
    
3.  3
    
    Trigger the Zap on formformform New Submission and select the requisition form.
    
4.  4
    
    Add a filter on Requisition Type so only roles meant for the public — new headcount rather than a confidential backfill — continue.
    
5.  5
    
    Add Facebook Pages, choose Create Page Post, and pick the Page your local audience follows.
    
6.  6
    
    Write the message with Position Title first, Work Location and Employment Type on the next line, and a trimmed Key Responsibilities as the body.
    
7.  7
    
    Map fields one at a time and leave Role Justification, Budget Cost Center / GL Code and Reports To (Name & Title) out — nothing internal should reach the Page.
    
8.  8
    
    Finish with the application link, run a test, and turn the Zap on once the post reads like an advert rather than a form dump.
    

## What maps where

Using the [Job Requisition Form](https://www.formformform.com/templates/job-requisition-form) as the starting point. These are its real fields — swap in your own and the mapping works the same way.

Form field

Facebook Pages

Position Title

Headline of the post

Work Location

Location line under the title

Employment Type

Same line as the location, after a separator

Key Responsibilities

Body of the post, trimmed by Formatter

Salary / Compensation Range

Pay line, when you publish ranges

Requisition Type

Zapier filter condition — only public roles continue

## Variations worth knowing

Push urgent roles first

Add Paths on Hiring Urgency: anything marked urgent posts immediately, everything else collects in Digest by Zapier for a Friday round-up. The Page gets one hiring post a week plus the roles that genuinely cannot wait.

Announce the start date, not the posting date

Map Target Start Date into the message so applicants can judge the timing themselves. It also gives you a field to filter on when you want to stop advertising roles whose start date has already gone by.

## If something isn't arriving

Internal detail ended up in the post

Zapier inserts any field you place in the message box, including a full submission summary. Rebuild the message field by field, then re-read the test post on a draft Page before this Zap goes live.

The post is a wall of responsibilities

Key Responsibilities is a long-answer field. Run it through Formatter by Zapier to take the first couple of hundred characters, or add a short summary field to the requisition form and post that instead.

## Frequently asked questions

Can candidates apply directly from the Facebook post?

No. The post carries your application link and people follow it; nothing comes back down the connection into the form. Track applications wherever that link points, whether that is another formformform form or your careers site.

Does this create a listing in a Facebook jobs section?

No. This connection publishes an ordinary Page post or Page photo. Anything that lives in a dedicated jobs area on Facebook is set up there directly, while the Zap only ever writes to your Page feed.

What happens when the role is filled?

Nothing automatic. The post stays up until someone edits or deletes it on Facebook, because the flow only travels outward. Some teams add a comment saying applications have closed rather than removing the post entirely.
