Integrate a job feed with Hosco

If you can generate an XML or JSON feed of your open jobs, you can post them to Hosco automatically without setting up a full ATS integration. This is a lighter-weight option if your ATS or careers page can already export a feed, or if you're able to build one to our specification. In this case, candidates apply directly on Hosco — since there's no ATS integration, applications are managed within Hosco rather than syncing back to your system.

How it works
  • Send us the link to your XML or JSON feed, or ask us to review whether an existing feed already meets our criteria.
  • All open jobs in the feed are imported automatically. You can't select individual jobs to import — the feed reflects everything that's live.
  • Once your feed is connected, keeping your careers page or ATS export up to date is all you need to do; updates flow through automatically.
What your feed needs to include

Mandatory fields:

  • Company name
  • Job title
  • Job type (full-time / part-time / internship)
  • Application URL
  • Job ID / reference number
  • City
  • Country
  • Job description
  • Job requirements
  • Department

Optional fields: Salary, Duration, Education

Feed requirements
  • Format: XML or JSON
  • Maximum of 400 jobs per feed
  • No duplicate job entries
  • Avoid repeatedly closing and reopening the same job
  • Jobs must be ones posted directly by you as the employer — feeds that aggregate postings from third-party sites aren't accepted
  • Include full city and country names — a city name alone can be ambiguous
Good to know
  • Each job imported through the feed uses one posting from your Hosco plan, the same as a job you post manually — check with your Account Manager if you're unsure how this applies to your subscription.
  • Setting up a new feed typically takes up to two weeks.
  • Keep your feed free of expired jobs so your listings on Hosco stay accurate.
