How to post a job

Posting a permanent or seasonal job takes about a minute, on the web or in the app. It is free to post, and stays free after the trial: the seven days are for the scheduling side of roster. Applicants land in your account, not in your inbox.

Good to know

  • A shift is not a job. Post a shift when you need someone for one night and want it filled from roster's vetted workers. Post a job when you are hiring for a role.
  • Who sees it. Workers who registered with a matching role and area get an email and a push the moment you post; everyone else finds it on roster.ie and in the app.
  • Editing and closing. Open the role under Hiring, Job posts to edit the pay or description, pause it, or close it when it is filled.
  • Your new hire on the schedule. Once you have hired someone, add them under Employees and they can go straight onto next week's schedule.
