The best part? No code or designer required!

Breezy’s portal template is mobile-optimized and lets you customize colors, images, photo galleries, perks, testimonials, and more.

Content sections

Hero

The hero is top section of the careers page where you can add a heading and intro. You can also set the background color, or add your own background image and adjust a color overlay to improve readability. Just upload the perfect picture (we recommend an image size of 1080 x 608), then use the slider to adjust the intensity of the color overlay.

Description

Use the Description section to include amore detailed description of your company. You can use standard formatting tools and include links and images.

Positions

This is where you’ll showcase open positions for your company. You can decide how to display the list of openings and whether to group jobs by location or department, based on the details in each position’s settings.

Images

Photo galleries are great for showing off your team and giving candidates a behind-the-scenes look at​ what it's like to work with your company.

Just upload photos for your gallery—interesting office features, events, office pets, and happy employees are always nice! The gallery layout changes based on the number of photos that you upload. You'll need to add at least 3 (we recommend 8 or more).

Perks & Benefits

Have unique, fun, or valuable perks you want to highlight? You can choose from (or customize) ready-made tiles or start from scratch with a new icon and description.

Up to 6 perks are shown at a time. If you add more, we'll randomize the 6 that are displayed each time the page loads.

Testimonials

Do your employees have great things to say about working with you? Spread the word! 📣

Just upload a photo, enter an employee’s name, title, and quote, and click +Add Testimonial.

Three testimonials are shown at a time. If you add more, we'll randomize the 3 that are displayed each time the page loads.

Employees

In the Employees section, you can show candidates who’s already a part of your team.

Just upload a photo, enter an employee’s name and title and click +Add Employee. You can also customise the section heading and subheading.

Share

The default portal settings do a pretty good job of showcasing your openings when you share them on social media. But in the Share section, you can customize the text and images that are used on social posts.

Share

CSS/JS

Need a little bit more personalization? Or maybe a third-party analytics tracking code?

No problem. You can add custom CSS and JavaScript to your career portal.

Employee Portal

Your Employee Portal is where current employees can refer candidates for open positions or apply to positions themselves. It takes its styling and options from your career site's settings, but doesn’t include the Employees, Media, Perks & Benefits, Testimonials, and Links sections.

You can:

  • Copy the Employee Portal URL to share with employees

  • Restrict portal access to certain email domains

  • Customize the form employees use to submit referrals

  • Customize the heading, subheading, and description for the employee portal
