Describing the New Features and Enhancements in the 1H 2024 Release

A new job alerts component is available for job detail pages when you enable the Unified Data Model setting in Career Site Builder.

If you don't already have job alerts turned on, enable Use Job Alerts at Site Configuration → Job Alerts Settings, and include an email address for Job Alert Email Address, then save your settings. You can choose whatever username you want before the @ sign for the email address.

If Unified Data Model is already enabled, the job alert link doesn't automatically show up on the job detail page. Instead, the component becomes available in Layouts → Job, and you add it manually to your page.

If you enable the Unified Data Model on or after the 1H 2024 Production release, the Job Alerts component is automatically added to your layout, and the job alert link automatically shows up on the job detail page.

You can add the Job Alerts component in the layout wherever you're allowed to add a component, as many times as you want.

To change this default text, Job Alerts Link, for the job alert link in the job detail page, use the tcJobResultsCreateJobAlertsDetailsText key in the translation editor, at Tools → Translations.

You can change the way the text looks at Appearance → Styles → Global Styles → Brand → Search Experience → Job Alerts. Job Alert Link Style sets the font, font size, and font color, while Job Alert Link Hover Color sets the font color when you mouse over the text.

You can also control the alignment of the link text in the component (left, center, and right).

In the current version, the introduction of the new Job Alerts component, exclusive to the Unified Data Model, lets you control where on the job detail page to place the job alert link.

In addition, the frequency of job alert email is now set automatically systemwide, to once every seven days.

Job alert links continue to appear on category, search results, and job detail pages in career sites, whether you have the Unified Data Model setting enabled or not.

In the previous version, job alert links appeared on category and search results pages for all career sites, but only appeared on job detail pages for career sites that didn't have Unified Data Model enabled.

Both Google+ and Vine social media services were discontinued by their respective publishers.

The links, which you could select in the Social Links tab in Appearance → Styles → Footers → Brand → Details, added these social media icons on the career site, typically in the footer, but anywhere on the site where social media icons appeared.

The Add button in the Social Links tab no longer gives you Google+ or Vine as options.

If you added Google+ and Vine to your footer settings in the past, they continue to be listed in the Social Links tab but no longer appear on the footer of your career site.

If you wish, you can choose to remove them manually from the list of social links.

The social links that continue to be available are Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, and Xing.

These field IDs are only visible if the Unified Data Model setting is enabled in Career Site Builder. There are no additional configurations, and the IDs appear automatically.

How It Looks Now

In the current version, Career Site Builder field names are accompanied by field IDs from the job requisition template in the dropdown list. For example, Expected Start Date (jobStartDate).

This field name only shows in the dropdown list, and doesn't appear as part of the field name on the career site itself.

In the previous version, only the Career Site Builder field names appeared in the dropdown list. This format required the administrator to know what Career Site Builder field names corresponded with which fields in the job requisition template, even for those fields where the IDs and names didn't match exactly. For example, administrators needed to know that the Expected Start Date field referred to the jobStartDate field in the job requisition template.

PrerequisitesYou have a Unified Data Model-enabled Career Site Builder.Choose which three fields you want to show in a job card when viewing the search results in the integrated Google map in Layouts Search Results Results Cards.(Optional) Customize your Google map beyond the settings for your location markers by generating JSON code from the legacy Google Maps API Styling Wizard (and not the newer cloud-based map styling tool, which requires a license with Google).

To set up an integrated Google job map for the search results page, follow these steps:

1. Turn on the ability to use Google Maps in your career site by going to Layouts → Search Results → General and setting Enable Google Job Map.

   This setting automatically adds an integrated Google map in your Unified Data Model-enabled career site's search results page.

2. To change the look of your location markers on the job map, go to the Search Experience tab in Appearance → Styles → Global Styles → Brand, then scroll down to Job Map:
   • Location Marker Color – lets you choose the fill color inside the location marker.
   • Selected Location Marker Color – lets you choose the fill color inside the location marker when the marker is selected.
   • Location Marker Border – lets you choose whether to show or hide the border of the location marker. The default is Show.
   • Location Marker Border Color – lets you choose the border (stroke) color of the location marker. You can enter a color value here even if you choose to hide the border, in which case the border simply isn't visible.
   • Location Marker Style – lets you choose how the number looks inside the location marker, including the font color, font stack, and font size.
   • Google Maps Configuration – this field is empty by default, and is designed to allow you to customize the map itself, separate from the location marker settings. The code you paste into this field is generated from your settings at the Styling Wizard: Google Maps APIs (legacy JSON styling wizard) website. Customize the look of the map there, then copy the generated JSON code and paste it into this field.

Control the color settings for the list and map icons in Appearance → Styles → Global Styles → Brand → Main:

• Button Background – controls the background color of the list view and map view buttons.
• Button Font – controls the color of the outline around the icons.

The following image of the search results page shows that there were no options to view the results in map form.
