The Job Detail Page

When you click on a job in your search results or all-jobs list, you open the job detail page. This is a comprehensive view that brings together everything Recruitier knows about the listing — from the full job description to company information, contact details, and your personal notes and tags. The detail page is where you make the decision to pursue an opportunity: is this job the right fit for your candidate, and who should you contact about it?
Opening a job detail page automatically updates the last_viewed_at timestamp on the Job record. This helps the system track which jobs you have reviewed and clears the “New” indicator for that specific job.

​
Page Layout

The job detail page is organized into several sections:

​
Header Section

At the top of the page, you see the essential information at a glance:
ElementDescription
Job TitleThe title as it appears on the company’s career page (proxied from ScrapedJob)
Company NameThe hiring company, linked to their company profile in Recruitier
LocationWhere the job is based (geocoded from the listing)
Match ScoreThe relevance percentage from your search (30-99% scale)
Match ClassificationExcellent, good, or poor match badge
Status BadgesIndicators for expired, new, via agency, or other states
Action ButtonsFavorite, tag, delete, and outreach actions

​
Essential Job Information

Below the header, a structured summary provides the key job attributes:
  • Experience Level — Junior, medior, senior, or lead
  • Job Type — Full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, or internship
  • Flexibility — Remote, hybrid, or on-site
  • Posting Date — When the job was listed, including the date source (e.g., from JSON-LD structured data, LLM extraction, HTML metadata, visible text, URL patterns, sitemap, or first-seen date)
  • Number of Applicants — If available from the original listing
  • Salary Range — Minimum and maximum salary with currency (EUR), when published
  • Requirements Summary — An AI-extracted list of key requirements from the description
Not all job listings include every attribute. Salary, applicant count, and experience level depend on what the company published in the original listing. Missing fields are simply not displayed rather than showing placeholder values.

​
Job Description

The full job description is rendered with proper formatting. Recruitier processes raw job descriptions through a markdown formatter that structures the content for readability:
  • Headings are properly formatted for section separation
  • Bullet lists are rendered cleanly for requirements and responsibilities
  • Bold and italic text preserves the original formatting emphasis
  • Links to external resources are preserved and clickable
The description section is the core of the job detail — this is where you evaluate whether the role matches your candidate’s skills and career goals.
If a job description appears as unformatted plain text, the markdown formatting may still be processing in the background. Recruitier formats descriptions asynchronously. Refresh the page after a few moments to see the formatted version.

​
Description Storage

Recruitier stores two versions of the job description on the ScrapedJob entity:
FieldContent
scraped_descriptionThe raw description as extracted from the company’s career page
markdown_descriptionThe AI-formatted version with proper markdown structure
The detail page displays the markdown_description when available, falling back to the scraped_description if formatting has not yet been applied. Both versions preserve the original content — Recruitier only reformats, never changes the substance of a description.

​
Company Information

The company section provides context about the hiring organization:
FieldDescription
Company NameOfficial company name with a favicon (if available)
LinkedIn ProfileDirect link to the company’s LinkedIn page for further research
WebsiteLink to the company’s website
Employee CountNumber of employees, sourced from LinkedIn or public records
IndustryThe company’s primary industry classification
This information is proxied through the Job entity from the linked Company and GlobalCompany records. The company_name, company_linkedin_url, and employee_count fields are available directly on the Job entity via property decorators.
Company information is enriched from Recruitier’s global company database, which tracks thousands of Dutch companies. If a company is not yet in the database, basic information from the job listing is displayed, and the record is enriched over time as more data becomes available.

​
Contact Details

Each job may have one or more contact details extracted from various sources. The contact section shows:
  • Contact person name — The name of the relevant contact, when identified
  • Email addresses — With verification scores indicating confidence in deliverability
  • Phone numbers — Direct lines when found in job descriptions
  • LinkedIn profiles — Links to decision-maker profiles at the company, with rank and relevance scoring
Contact details are aggregated from three levels, deduplicated to avoid showing the same contact multiple times:
  1. Job-level contacts — Extracted directly from the job description
  2. Company-level contacts — From the company record associated with this listing
  3. GlobalCompany-level contacts — From the global company database
Contact details are one of the most valuable parts of the job detail page. For a complete guide on understanding and using contact information, see Contact Information.

​
Status Indicators

Several badges and indicators communicate the job’s current state:

​
Expired Badge

When Recruitier detects that a job listing is no longer available on the company’s career page, it shows an Expired badge along with the expired_at timestamp recording when the expiration was detected.
Expired jobs may have been filled or withdrawn. While the job detail remains available for reference, avoid reaching out about expired listings unless you have a specific reason to believe the role is still open.

​
New Badge

Jobs that were recently added to your search results through monitoring appear with a New badge (is_new = true). This badge is cleared when you view the search detail page, indicating that you have seen the new additions.

​
Via Agency Badge

If the job listing was posted by or through a recruitment agency (rather than the hiring company directly), a Via Agency badge appears (via_agency = true). This helps you distinguish between direct employer listings and agency-mediated positions.
Jobs posted via agencies require a different outreach strategy. The hiring company may have an exclusive arrangement with the listing agency, making direct outreach less effective or potentially causing friction.

​
Acquisition Not Wanted

Some Dutch job listings include a “geen acquisitie” (no acquisition) notice, indicating that the company does not want to be contacted by recruitment agencies. Recruitier’s scraper detects this signal using the acquisition_not_wanted flag on the ScrapedJob entity and displays it as a warning indicator.
When a job is marked with “acquisition not wanted,” the company has explicitly stated they do not wish to be contacted by recruiters. Respect this request — contacting them anyway may damage your professional reputation. This flag is detected by scanning the job description for phrases like “geen acquisitie,” “no recruitment agencies,” and similar variations.

​
Tags and Notes

The detail page shows all tags applied to the job and provides access to internal notes:

​
Tags

Tags appear as color-coded chips on the job detail page. You can:
  • View all applied tags
  • Add new tags
  • Remove existing tags
  • See expiration dates for time-based tags (displayed as a countdown)

​
Internal Notes

Internal notes are shared with your agency team. They appear in a notes section on the detail page, each attributed to the team member who wrote it. Notes are useful for:
  • Sharing observations about the job fit
  • Logging communication with the company
  • Recording candidate feedback about the position
  • Noting follow-up actions needed
Use internal notes to create a communication log for each job. When multiple team members work the same pipeline, notes prevent duplicate outreach and ensure everyone has context on what has been discussed with the company.

​
Outreach Integration

From the job detail page, you can initiate outreach directly:
  • Auto-generated messages — For jobs with discovered contacts, Recruitier can generate a personalized outreach message using your tone of voice settings
  • Manual compose — Open the message composer to write a custom message
  • Outreach flow — Start a multi-step outreach sequence targeting the contact associated with this job
The outreach section shows the current outreach status if a flow has been started: which steps are completed, which are pending, and what the next action is. When viewing a job from a specific company, the detail page may show other active jobs from the same company. This helps you identify additional opportunities at organizations you are already evaluating, without running a separate search. From the job detail page, you can navigate to:
  • The parent search — Click the search name in the breadcrumb to return to the search results
  • The company profile — Click the company name to view the full company detail page in Client Management
  • The original listing — Click the external link icon to open the job on the company’s career page in a new tab (uses the url field from ScrapedJob)

​
Job Entity Property Proxying

The Job entity does not store most of the job content directly. Instead, it proxies fields from the ScrapedJob via @property decorators. This architecture means: Fields proxied from ScrapedJob:
  • title, url, location
  • scraped_description, markdown_description
  • experience_level, job_type, flexibility
  • when (recency category), list_date
  • num_applicants, requirements_summary
  • salary_min, salary_max
  • acquisition_not_wanted, is_active, is_expired
Fields proxied from Company/GlobalCompany:
  • company_name, company_linkedin_url, employee_count
Fields stored directly on Job:
  • match_score, match_type
  • favorited, deleted, is_new
  • last_viewed_at, via_agency, source_keywords
This proxy pattern ensures that when the underlying ScrapedJob is updated (e.g., the description is reformatted, the listing expires, or new contact info is added), all Job records linked to that ScrapedJob automatically reflect the change.

​
Posting Date Source Hierarchy

The list_date field on ScrapedJob comes from the most reliable available source. Recruitier checks sources in the following order of reliability:
PrioritySourceDescription
1jsonldJSON-LD structured data embedded in the page
2llmLLM-extracted date from the job description text
3html_metaHTML meta tags (e.g., datePublished)
4visible_textDate visible on the page (parsed from text)
5url_patternDate encoded in the URL path
6sitemapDate from the website’s sitemap.xml
7first_seenThe date Recruitier first discovered the listing
The source type is tracked alongside the date so the system knows how reliable the posting date is. JSON-LD dates are the most accurate; first-seen dates are the least (they reflect when Recruitier found the listing, not when it was actually posted).

​
Contact Information Aggregation

The contact details shown on the job detail page are aggregated from three levels:
  1. Job contacts — Extracted from the job description using AI parsing. These are stored in the ScrapedJob’s contact_information JSONB field.
  2. Company contacts — From the Company record linked to this job.
  3. GlobalCompany contacts — From the global company database.
The aggregation process deduplicates contacts across all three levels, so you never see the same person listed twice. Deduplication is based on email address, phone number, or LinkedIn profile URL matching. Each contact type (EMAIL, TEL, LINKEDIN_CONTACT_PERSON) has its own set of quality indicators. See Contact Information for the full details.

​
Power-User Tips

When deciding whether a job is worth pursuing based on its posting date, consider the date source. A date from JSON-LD structured data is highly reliable. A “first_seen” date only tells you when Recruitier found the listing — the actual posting date could be days or weeks earlier. For time-sensitive outreach, prioritize jobs with reliable date sources.
The company information shown on the job detail page is enriched from Recruitier’s database, but the LinkedIn profile link gives you direct access to the most current company data. Check the LinkedIn profile for recent posts, employee growth trends, and mutual connections that could warm up your outreach.

​
Business Rules

  • Description immutability: The scraped_description is never modified after initial extraction. The markdown_description can be regenerated by the AI formatter but always preserves the original content’s substance.
  • Expiration cascade: When a ScrapedJob’s is_expired flag is set, all Job records linked to that ScrapedJob automatically reflect the expiration through the proxy property.
  • Contact enrichment is incremental: New contact information can be added to a ScrapedJob or its linked Company/GlobalCompany at any time. When you revisit a job detail page, you may see new contacts that were not available during your initial review.
