Instead of showing a 404 page, give the option to browse other jobs

We hope this will assist with SEO.

Hi All


Delighted to report that we’ve now made changes resulting in Closed Adverts no longer displaying a 404. 


Instead, the Apply button of the advert will be disabled and text will display along the top of the advert content to inform the candidate that the advert is closed, and encourage the user to view other live adverts in an effort to convert traffic to your closed adverts. See attached example from Firefish jobs page.


This message can be customised via Website > Job Search > Closed Advert.


We will continue to update the validThrough date (advert expiry date) within the structured schema of any closed advert as this is what informs Google for Jobs that the advert is no longer live and follows Google’s recommended steps.


Thanks for voting!

    Hi Ross, Thank you for the above instruction however we are looking for a solution that a 404 page does not exist at all as it is not good for google/SEO purposes and to simply have a re-direct instead of the 404. Is this something that we can vote on and be considered working into the roadmap ?
