Custom Job Types

With 43% of the workforce expected to be part of the gig economy by 2020 - working for services such as Uber and Lyft - four standard job types just don’t work.

With JobBoard.io, you can create your own job types to suit your board's needs. Get creative!

• A contracting job board could use this for different types of contracts,
• A gig job board could use it for different time commitments.
• International job boards can localize employment terms.
