Introduction

Go Fetch Jobs is a plugin meant to help job boards getting fresh content using simple RSS feeds or API’s. It can be a great tool for new job sites struggling to have new content and visitors. It’s also a great way for established job sites to have regular quality jobs added to their site.

Since Go Fetch Jobs imports jobs directly to the jobs database, imported jobs are seamlessly integrated with “regular” jobs added by job listers or recruiters. It’s an alternative to API’s used by some job aggregators that will only pull and displays jobs stored on their remote database.

Go Fetch Jobs can import not only the basic data from RSS feeds but also meta data like the job location, job company names and logos, on selected RSS feeds.

Additionally, with Go Fetch Jobs installed you can fully automate your job imports using automatic schedules using your saved import templates (premium plans only). You can put your site in full auto pilot and keep it fresh with quality jobs, every day.

Below you’ll find more details on the available features. Note that not all features are available in the Free version. To find which features are available on each available version please check the Features page.

Just pick your favorite job site, look for the jobs RSS feed, paste it directly to Go Fetch Jobs and instantly get fresh jobs in your database!

The UI is simple and provides tips and descriptions about each option and how it works.

To help you quickly getting jobs from external sites, Go Fetch Jobs comes bundled with ready to use RSS feeds and detailed instructions on how to setup RSS feeds for job sites that provide them, including big sites like jobs.theguardian.com. An RSS builder is also provided for providers that allow customizing the RSS feed.
