What inploi provides automatically
| Capability | Details |
|---|---|
| Sitemap | Available at https://careers.yourcompany.com/sitemap.xml — updated automatically as jobs go live or expire |
| Structured data | Every job page includes schema.org JobPosting markup so Google can extract job details (title, location, salary, employer) |
| robots.txt | Auto-generated and references your sitemap so Google discovers it on first crawl |
| Server-side rendering | All pages render fully without JavaScript, so Google can index them without any extra configuration |
Structured data and sitemap configuration are set up by your inploi account team during onboarding. If you are not sure whether your site is fully configured, confirm with your account manager before submitting to Google Search Console.
What you need to do
Google indexes jobs on your live custom domain (for example
careers.yourcompany.com), not the inploi staging URL. Make sure your DNS switchover is complete before continuing.Visit this URL in a browser to confirm it loads and lists your jobs. If it returns an error, contact your account manager.
Go to Google Search Console
Visit search.google.com/search-console and sign in. If you have not already added your domain as a property, do that first.Open Sitemaps
In the left-hand menu, select Sitemaps.Enter your sitemap URL
Type your sitemap URL into the Add a new sitemap field and click Submit.You do not need to submit individual jobs. As long as your sitemap is submitted and your domain is live, new jobs appear in Google for Jobs as Google re-crawls your site.
Validating your structured data
To check that a job page is correctly configured for Google for Jobs, use Google’s Rich Results Test. Enter any job page URL and look for a validJobPosting result.
You can also monitor indexing health and crawl errors in Google Search Console under Indexing → Pages.
What the structured data includes
Google uses the following fields from each job page:| Field | Source |
|---|---|
| Job title | Job record |
| Job description | Job description from your ATS |
| Date posted | Date the job went live |
| Employer name and logo | Your company settings |
| Location | Address and postcode from your ATS |
| Employment type | Employment type from your ATS |
| Salary | Included when “display salary” is enabled on the job |
| Direct apply | Always set — candidates apply directly on your site |
Troubleshooting
Jobs not appearing after a week- Check that your sitemap URL is accessible by visiting it in a browser.
- Open Google Search Console and check Indexing → Pages for crawl or coverage errors on your job pages.
- Confirm your custom domain is fully live and not redirecting to the staging URL.
