Set up data mapping for ATS jobs

Last updated: 1 year ago

Admins can create location, title, and company page mappings for automated job postings in Recruiter. A location mapping correctly maps invalid locations to standardized locations on LinkedIn. Title mapping correctly maps multiple job attributes, such as skills and job function, to jobs with the same title.

For admins that have multiple company pages, company page mapping ensures the job postings show up on the correct company page. These features help job posters save time in proactively preventing issues related to location, company page, or various attributes for future automated job postings.   

Important to know

To map job titles, navigate to the Job targeting tab located under Job Promotion Settings.

Follow these steps to set up data mapping: 

  1. Hover over your profile picture in the upper right-hand corner and click Product settings. 

  2. Under Job Promotion Settings, click Data mappings for ATS jobs:

    • Location mapping: Under the Job location tab, on the upper right corner of your screen, click + Create rule. In the side panel, enter your info in the following fields:
      • Location from ATS
      • Job location
      • Workplace type
    • Company page mapping: Under the Company tab, click + Create rule. In the side panel, enter your info in the following fields:
      • Keyword in job description
      • Company page on LinkedIn (where you wish for the job postings with the keyword to appear)

  3. Click Save. 

Important to know

Once the mapping is set up, it will apply to all future automated job postings that match the rule.


The latest rule (based on creation date) applies to the mapping, i.e., the rule higher in the rule list applies since the list is sorted base on creation date. (Editing the rule will not change the order.)


Note: Exact match rules always have higher priority than partial match rules.
