The Career Center feature for adding jobs and internships will soon be phased out, transitioning fully to Directories.
Why Migrate to Directories?
Flexibility and Control:
Directories offer more flexibility than the Career Center.
This includes better filter options, more fields in job submission forms, and improved content review processes.
Measuring Engagement:
With Directories, it's easier to track how users interact with content.
Good examples would be things like searching, clicking, and sharing.
Alumni-Centric Approach:
This move allows for better analysis and refinement of content or programs to align with alumni needs.
Privacy and Secured Access:
Directories allow restricting access to specific groups, like alumni-affiliated users.
Migration Process
Request Migration:
To initiate, send a migration request to help@almabase.com.
The migration is backend-driven and usually completes within two days.
Post-Migration:
Jobs and internships are moved to the new Directory, and the link is shared.
The old job board URL (e.g., "https://www.myschoolalumni.org/jobs") will redirect to the new Directory.
Important Points to Note
Application Process
Job posters should provide an external application link or email.
Direct applications to employers are through these links or emails.
Changes in Functionality
The 'Apply' and 'Follow' option is not available in Directories, and this functionality is deprecated.
