Google for Jobs free job posting
Quick answer
Google for Jobs is not a separate employer posting form. Eligible vacancies can appear when they are published on a crawlable job page with accurate JobPosting structured data, or through an integrated third-party job site.
Publish the vacancy on a real page first
Create one public URL for one open role. The visible page should contain the title, full description, employer, location or remote arrangement, posting date and application route. A list of several jobs is not the place for individual JobPosting markup.
Add matching JobPosting structured data
Use JSON-LD containing the required and relevant recommended properties. Every marked-up fact must also be visible to the visitor. Do not use JobPosting data on expired, fake or inaccessible vacancies. CorporateJob job detail pages provide search engines with structured vacancy information as part of publication.
Help Google discover changes
- Keep the job URL crawlable and indexable.
- Use a canonical URL when copies exist.
- Submit accurate job URLs and last-modified values in a sitemap.
- Remove markup or return an appropriate status when the role expires.
- Validate structured data and monitor Search Console.
Eligibility does not guarantee appearance or ranking; Google decides whether and how a valid posting is shown.
