Custom domain setup for your career site

Custom domain setup for your career site

This guide explains how to connect your own domain (e.g. jobs.yourcompany.com) to your Career Site.

Overview

To connect your domain, two DNS records need to be added:

  • A TXT record (to verify domain ownership)

  • A CNAME record (to direct traffic to your Career Site)

Once these are added correctly, we will automatically activate your domain and set up a secure (SSL) connection.

What you need to do

Choose your domain
Decide which subdomain you want to use, for example:

  • jobs.yourcompany.com

  • careers.yourcompany.com

Note: Only subdomains are supported (not root domains like yourcompany.com).

Share your domain with us

Send us the exact domain you want to use.
We will prepare the required DNS records for you.

Add DNS records

You will receive two DNS records from us. These must be added where your domain is managed (typically by your IT team or hosting provider).

Example (based on jobs.yourcompany.com)

Record 1: TXT (verification)
Type: TXT
Name: _dnsauth.jobb.yourcomany.com
Value: (provided by us)

Record 2: CNAME (connection)
Type: CNAME
Name:jobs.yourcompany.com

Value: (provided by us)

Important: How to add the records correctly
Most DNS systems automatically add your base domain.

Example:

  • If your domain is yourcompany.com

  • Enter:

  • _dnsauth.jobs (NOT the full domain)

  • jobs (NOT the full domain)

If your domain is already in use
If your chosen domain is currently pointing to another website:
Add only the TXT record first
Let us know once it’s added

We will confirm when validation is complete

  1. Then add the CNAME record

This avoids any downtime.

What happens next

Once the DNS records are added:

  • We verify your domain

  • We activate your Career Site on that domain

  • We automatically enable a secure HTTPS connection

Alternative: career site under a path of your existing website

If you cannot dedicate a subdomain and want your career site to live under a path of your main website instead (for example www.yourcompany.com/careers), this is also possible — without any DNS records:
Your website (or its CDN/proxy, e.g. Cloudflare) forwards the chosen path to an address we provide,including everything after the path(e.g./careers/job/12345must be forwarded as/job/12345).
Tell us the exact public address (e.g.https://www.yourcompany.com/careers) — we configure it on our side so that all job links in job feeds, job boards, and on your career site pages use your address.
Note: in this setup the secure (HTTPS) connection on your domain is handled by your own website/proxy, not by us. Ask us if you are unsure whether your website platform supports this.

Cookies

If you’re using Cookiebot, we need your Cookiebot ID to insert on our side.

If you’re using another vendor, you need to provide us the full script.
