What information do I need to provide to create a job listing?
To create a job listing, you’ll be asked to provide the following information:
- Job Location (zip code)
- Optional: Workplace Type (on-site, remote, or hybrid)
- Job Title
- Job Description
- Job Category (such as customer service or hospitality)
- Employment Type (part-time, full-time, or gig)
- Optional: Shift Type (day, night, swing, or flexible)
- Optional: Pay (a fixed amount or salary range)

Can I post job listings in bulk or get volume pricing?
Yes! If you’re an employer or staffing agency that posts more than 10 jobs a month and you’re interested in volume/wholesale pricing, automated job feeds, or industry-specific offerings, please complete our Jobs Contact Form. A member of our team will reach out to discuss how OfferUp can help support your business.
How long will my job listing stay active in the feed?
Your job listing stays active for 30 days from the date of purchase. When it expires, it will be removed from the feed. Expired job listings remain on your private My Jobs page and cannot be reposted to the public feed. If your listing has expired, but you want to keep promoting your job, you'll need to create a new listing and pay a new listing fee.
How do I check to make sure my job is live in the feed?
To check if your job is live in the feed, search for it by job title or company name. Make sure to set the correct location or zip code for where the job is listed.
Please note, while some listings may post immediately or within a few hours, it could take up to 24 hours for your listing to post to the feed. Delays are due to our thorough review process which helps us detect and prevent scams on our platform. You don't need to take any action during this process. If your listing does not meet our posting guidelines, we’ll notify you by email that it cannot be posted.
Can I get refunded for a job listing?
We don’t offer refunds for job listings. However, if our automation mistakenly removed your listing, we can review your request for a refund. Just keep in mind that if your listing doesn’t follow our Prohibited Jobs or Community Guidelines, we won’t be able to offer a refund. To submit a refund request, select the Contact Us button below, then select Disputing My Item's Removal and complete the required fields.
How do applicants apply to my job?
You choose how you want job applicants to apply when you create your job listing. On the Post a Job page, select an Apply Method to direct applicants to your Website, or to contact you by Email or Phone to start the application process. Depending on your selection, you’ll need to provide a website URL, email address, or phone number. If you'd like to change the Apply Method you selected, you can edit your listing at any time from your My Jobs page.
NOTE
Job candidates and employers cannot message each other through the OfferUp app or OfferUp.com. All communication between applicants and employers occurs outside of the app or website.
Can I see if anyone’s looking at my job?
Yes! See how candidates are engaging with your listings using the jobs Insights dashboard. For more information, see Hire smarter with Insights.
NOTE
OfferUp cannot provide data on how many job seekers actually apply to your listings since all applications occur via third-party websites, phone, or email.
The position was filled or is no longer available. How do I close my job listing?
You can close your job listing either through our mobile app or on the web at OfferUp.com. To learn how, see Managing your job listing.
