Getting Started on Apron Careers

Congratulations! You have found the best location to find candidates. To get started, here's how you make an account for yourself.

How to Make Your Employer Account

  • Click POST A JOB on the top right corner of your homepage.

  • Click on your desired plan to purchase based on your business needs.

  • Click CREATE AN ACCOUNT after you have made your selection. Then, fill out all the details that you need your candidates to know about your company and your employer profile.

    PLEASE NOTE: You need to have a valid email address and/or phone number to register your account. You may also create your account by signing in with your Google, Facebook, or LinkedIn profile.

  • After providing your phone number, you will receive a one-time password (OTP) that will be needed to verify your account.

  • Fill in your business details page so candidates can learn more about your company and what the position might entail.

    ANOTHER NOTE: We encourage you to provide as much information as possible. The more you provide the platform, the more you will receive in return. And best of all—the more likely you will be to find your perfect candidate!

  • Once you have completed your business details, enter in your credit card details to complete your subscription. Once this is complete, you will receive an invoice for the transaction to the email registered to the account. You can also view your plan details in your EMPLOYER DASHBOARD. This can be done either by viewing PLAN HISTORY or TRANSACTIONS.

If you have any questions at all or run into any difficulty, please reach out to [email protected] and we'd be happy to help you out!

The Dashboard

Your dashboard is your location to see all of your pertinent details. It is the overview of your account details that will include any of the following information:

  • Total jobs posted
  • Total # of job applications
  • Total job visits
  • Total jobs saved by candidates
  • Your current plan
  • # of jobs allowed under your plan
  • # of job posts pending for your current plan
  • Recent job applications

I Need to Hire Someone. How Do I Post a Job?

Posting a job is a piece of cake! Here's how you post your job on our platform:

  • Log into your account (see “How Do I Log in to My Account?” for more details)
  • Click on POST A JOB on the left menu
  • Fill in the necessary details
  • Click POST NOW

IMPORTANT: As soon as you click POST NOW, your job is immediately live! You can check the details in your account under MANAGE JOBS. Now, all you have to do is wait for your excellent candidates to find your job posting.

How Long Does Each Job Posting Last?

Our job posts are only valid for 30 days. After that time, you will have to resubmit another job posting.

Are Job Posts Still Active If the Subscription is Canceled or the Subscription Tenure is Over?

If you cancel your subscription, your job posting will STILL be ACTIVE until the validity date of your plan, or until the job posting expires. Whichever comes first will be the ending date for your job posting!

If the validity of your plan expires, then all of your job postings will be DELETED. You will need to buy another plan to put most job postings on our platform after this point.

How Do I Delete a Job Posting?

  • Go to MANAGE JOBS in the left menu
  • Click on the DELETE icon under any of the job posts that you need to delete.

Made a Mistake! How Do I Edit My Job Posting?

Fortunately, you aren't caught having to wait until it expires. If you make a mistake (which we all do), proceed with these steps:

  • Go to MANAGE JOBS in the left menu
  • Click on the EDIT icon on the job post you'd like to edit
  • Edit any and all information EXCEPT FOR the TITLE, JOB CATEGORY, and the JOB ADDRESS. If you made mistakes with these, you WILL have to delete and start over
  • Once your information is edited, click POST NOW and all will be restored!

How Do I Check on New Job Applications?

Every time you receive a new application, you will get an email so you know as soon as someone finds your job posting. You will also receive a notification to your account. In order to view the new application, either click NOTIFICATIONS or JOB APPLICATIONS (both in the left menu) to see your potential new hire.

How Do I Accept and Reject Job Applications?

All you have to do is go to JOB APPLICATIONS in your account (on the left menu) and you can take any action on the job applications you have received.

TO ACCEPT THE APPLICATION: Click the icon that says ACCEPT.

TO REJECT THE APPLICATION: Click on the icon that says REJECT

Once you accept the application, the candidate will be redirected to the MESSAGING feature to send a message to the candidate about their application. Any application that has been accepted by you will send an email to your candidate as well so that they can begin chatting with you to learn more about the role

How Do I Message Candidates?

To message a candidate, you need to ACCEPT THEIR APPLICATION before you proceed. All chats will be available to you under the link that says MESSAGES.

How do I view a candidate's profile?

  • Go to JOB APPLICATIONS
  • Click on the Candidate's name or type their name in the search box to view their profile

IMPORTANT: You will NOT be able to view the Candidate's personal information, such as email address, phone number, and other information UNTIL you have accepted their application.

What are QR Job Requests?

We are so excited to bring a new development that makes the hiring process even easier! There are always walk-in candidates when it comes to our industry. It's just the nature of the business!

With a long schedule, many managers are unable to interview and vet every individual that comes through the door as a walk-in candidate. It's difficult to interview everyone who walks in during the workday, which is why we have created our QR CODE FEATURE, which is accessible on the left menu underneath BUSINESS DETAILS. Here's how it works.

How the QR Code Works

Any candidate who walks in and asks about the job doesn't have to wait for you to be available. Instead, all you have to do is tell them to scan the QR CODE and they can apply for the position. It's that simple!

NOTE: We recommend that you display the QR CODE somewhere visible so that people can scan it and you don't have to go and fish it out for them!

Once your QR CODE is scanned, it will direct your candidate to the company's profile page, and they can see the available positions that are being offered. If there are NO CURRENT JOB OPENINGS, the candidate can still use a QR SCAN FORM to fill out the information necessary to keep them in mind for future jobs. You will be able to see their information on your profile under QR JOB REQUESTS.

Then, you can contact them at any point and let them know that you have jobs that they might be able to apply for! We are so excited about this feature because it not only makes hiring easier, but it makes your business look extremely professional too!

Profile Basics

How Do I Edit My Profile?

PLEASE NOTE: Your business name and location CANNOT be changed or updated once the profile is created. If you wish to do so, please contact us at [email protected]. We can assist you, but we will require some documents to prove the change of business name or location.

If you do make changes to your company profile, follow the following steps:

  • Log into your account
  • Select BUSINESS DETAILS on the left menu

Make any and all changes you need, and then hit SAVE to finalize!

How to Update Your Phone Number and/or Email

  • Log into your account
  • Select EDIT PROFILE on the left menu

NOTE: Phone numbers will need to be updated with your one-time password (OTP) sent to your new number.

How to Change Your Password

If you have already logged into your account, select CHANGE PASSWORD on the left side of your screen in the menu. Enter in our OLD and NEW PASSWORDS and then hit SAVE.

If you have forgotten your password, do not worry! We can help you restore your access. All you need to do is reset your password at the following link:

https://aproncareers.com/password/reset.

How Do I Update or Change My Credit Card Information?

  • Log into your account
  • Select PLAN HISTORY on the left menu
  • Select PAYMENT DETAILS
  • Edit as needed and make sure that you save the changes

If you have any questions at all regarding billing, please reach out to [email protected]

I No Longer Need My Account. Can I Cancel?

While we are sad to see you go, you are more than welcome to cancel your subscription and stop your payments on your plan. Here's how to cancel your subscription to Apron Careers.

  • Log into your account (see "How Do I Log in to My Account?" for more details).
  • Select PLAN HISTORY in the left menu.
  • Click CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION.

IMPORTANT: Your plan WILL remain ACTIVE until the end of its billing period. For example, if you bill on the 15th of every month but cancel on the 5th , you will STILL have access until the 15th when your subscription is meant to renew. You can still take advantage of all that we have to offer at Apron Careers until then!

How to Delete Your Account

If you are looking to leave Apron Careers permanently, you can delete your account. To do so, please email [email protected] with your username. Please allow us 1-2 business days to complete the request. Once it is completed, you will receive a confirmation email.

NOTE: Once your “delete account” request is completed, you will NOT be able to restore any account information. Your account will be PERMANENTLY deleted. If you wish to join us again, this means you'd have to create another account entirely.
