Content Quality Guideline

Here at Wantedly, we believe that focusing on shared vision, passion, and values will lead to a better match between employers and talents; rather than benefits and salary. Therefore, we encourage you to post content on Wantedly that highlights the elements of uniqueness within your company such as the passion behind your mission or the overall philosophy instilled into your product or service.

Take a look at the guidelines below that will help you to effectively use Wantedly and grow your employer brand. We’ve also included some tips and best practices to help make your next superstar hire.

Failure to adhere to these guidelines will result in hiding or some modification of your post and our Quality Assurance Team will contact you with further details.

General Guidelines

For all content, such as Job Posts, Meetups, and Story posts, please refrain from including following:

  • Specific details of salary/wage and employment benefits
  • Images or any content containing violence, nudity, partial nudity, discrimination, unlawfulness, infringement, pornography or sexual suggestiveness
  • Email addresses or phone numbers that allow direct contact outside of the Wantedly platform.
  • Third-party links or product advertisements with the intent for direct selling.

Job Posts

Create a Job post to outline the details of an open position you are looking to fill.

1. Cover photo

Visuals play an important role in capturing users' attention. Use engaging photos for your Job Posts to showcase your company’s culture.

DO

  • Capture your team members in their daily interactions
  • Showcase your office space - after all, that’s where your team spends most of their week
  • Feature your team at events, team bonding activities, etc.
  • Show your product or service
  • High resolution photos at least at 1980x1320px

DON’T

  • Use text or company logo that takes up more than 30% of the cover photo
  • Use images with inappropriate content
  • Low resolution photos below 1980x1320px

2. Headline

Be creative when it comes to your Job Post’s headline. You can even think of it as a blog title. By thinking out-of-the-box for your headline, you can share more about your company’s culture and vision, which will help attract more relevant talent.

Include the role AND an engaging/empowering phrase. Show how the role will impact your team or illustrate certain qualities you are looking for.

DO E.g 1: Pump up your portfolio! Test your skills as our video production intern
E.g 2: Be a shoulder to lean on! We are looking for a skilled HR manager
DON’T E.g 1: Software Engineer
E.g 2: Business development wanted

3. Content

Instead of the typical job post that is just a mundane list of requirements and qualifications, use Wantedly to share beyond the hard facts of the position. Appeal to your potential teammate that there is more to the role and your company than just the “work”. It’s all about attracting the right candidate who not only will fill the role, but also will fit in with your company culture.

Job Post Section Description/Guidelines

**The What, Why, How sections only have to be filled in once as they will automatically be used for all Job Posts that you publish.

Please note: There may be exceptions to this guideline in case of conflicts with local law and policies.

Meetup

Create a Meetup post to organize a community event in-person or online. The important thing to remember is, this is an opportunity to bring together people to discuss and share ideas.

Wantedly Stories exists for all types of storytellers, career explorers and thinkers, with stories covering topics related to career and related passion projects. If you have an idea or story to share respectfully, it’s welcome to be published in our Stories community!

  1. All written content on Stories should be relevant, substantial and informative with regards to career and related passion projects. Your Story post should not be rehashing the information found on your Wantedly profile. Instead, you may utilise the “Self Introduction” section on your profile to provide a summary of your work experience.
  2. You may not sell advertising in or on your content. Story posts should NOT exist with the predominant purpose of driving traffic to an external website, business, or product.
  3. If you have received compensation, free goods/services, or anything of value in connection with the topic of a post, you must make this clear.

2. For Companies

Wantedly Stories exist for you to share your company’s voice and story. Your Stories is unique to your company and your company alone. It’s the perfect platform for you to strengthen your employer branding across the world by revealing your team culture like never before.

Suggested topics:
  • Results of an event your company held
  • Introduce some of your team members
  • Exciting upcoming projects
  1. A Story post cannot be a Job Post or Meetup Event; however, once a Job Post and/or Meetup Event is published, you can directly link it to the Story post. A Story post can cover topics related to a Job Post (i.e. A Day in the Life of our Marketing Manager), Meetup Event (i.e. Get to Know Our Power Lineup of Inspiring Founders for Our Upcoming Event), or overall company-related content such as weekly updates, major announcements, etc.
  2. You may not sell or advertise any products or services.
