Hey everyone, welcome back to JD Fix, where we take on job description challenges and show you how to make your process faster, easier, and more effective. I’m Heather Fenty, and today, we’re talking about something every Talent Acquisition team struggles with at some point: applying standard job posting sections in bulk.
If you’ve got loads of job postings and you’re spending hours manually updating the same benefits section—or any other standard content—stick around. I’m going to show you how Templates can help you take control, manage updates efficiently, and cleanse outdated job descriptions in just a few clicks.
Let’s dive in.
🎙 let’s start with Why Standardized Templates Matter
Picture this: Your company has 500 job postings, but each one has a different version of your benefits section. Some mention your 401(k), some don’t. Some include your remote work policy, others skip it entirely.
That kind of inconsistency can confuse candidates, create compliance risks, and hurt your employer brand.
That’s why it’s critical to take control upfront by creating standardized templates for sections like benefits, company overviews, DEI statements, or even closing CTAs.
🎙 Now, let’s talk about How Ongig’s Smart Templates Help You Manage JDs at Scale
Here’s how you can manage this process the right way:
1️⃣ Define Your Standard Sections – Identify sections that should be consistent across all JDs. Set them up once as a reusable template.
2️⃣ Apply in Bulk – Instead of manually updating each JD, use Ongig’s Smart Templates to push those sections across hundreds of job postings instantly.
3️⃣ Stay in Control – Need variations for specific roles or locations? No problem. You can manage exceptions easily without disrupting the overall template.
4️⃣ Cleanse Outdated JDs – If some postings have old policies or inconsistent language, Smart Templates help you cleanse them quickly—no more digging through individual postings.
🎙 Now, how about a Real-World Example
Let’s say you’re a consumer goods company with hundreds of untemplated JDs, and you realize your benefits section is outdated and inconsistent.
You could spend weeks manually fixing it—or with Smart Templates, you could do it in minutes.
This not only saves you time but also ensures every candidate gets clear, accurate, and compliant job information. Your TA team can then focus on hiring great people instead of playing copy-paste.
🎙 A Final Takeaway
If you’re still manually updating the same sections across multiple JDs, it’s time to take control, manage your content efficiently, and cleanse outdated job postings with Smart Templates.
