Multiposting means publishing a job opening to multiple external job boards at the same time. There are thousands of job boards worldwide, so Spott partners with specialist multiposting providers rather than integrating each board directly.

​
How it works

  1. Open the job’s Advertising tab.
  2. Choose a multiposter: Publish to Broadbean, Publish to Idibu, or Publish to VDAB (for the Flemish public job board).
  3. The provider’s interface opens inside Spott. From there you select boards, configure the posting, and publish.
Your multiposting subscription is with the provider, not with Spott. Pricing, posting credits, and per-board fees are handled in your Broadbean or Idibu account. Available boards and posting rules are managed there too.

​
Require an open Spott job board first

Some workspaces want every job on their own careers site before it goes anywhere else, so the advert people find on a job board always has a page of yours behind it. The setting Open Spott job board before allowing multiposter, under Settings → Features, enforces that: a job can only be multiposted once it has a Published advert on your Spott job board. It applies to the whole workspace, is off by default, and needs the permission to manage the workspace to change. While a job has no open Spott job board, publishing to LinkedIn, idibu, Broadbean, and VDAB is disabled, and so is setting any other job board posting to Published. The buttons show “You cannot multipost unless you have an open Spott job board”. The check runs per language version of the job description, so a Dutch advert needs a published Dutch Spott job board. The Spott job board itself is never blocked.
The block only applies to posting from inside Spott. Postings created through the API are not checked. The setting is not shown in every workspace yet; if you need it and cannot find it, contact support.

​
Supported multiposters

  • Broadbean (AdCourier): see the setup guide.
  • Idibu: enabled under Settings → Integrations.

Inbound applications

Multiposting is a two-way channel. When a candidate applies to a job you posted:
  1. The multiposter routes the application back to Spott automatically.
  2. Spott parses the candidate’s CV through the standard parsing pipeline.
  3. A candidate profile is created, or the existing profile is updated if the person is already in your database.
  4. The application lands on that job’s Applicants tab, ranked by AI, ready for review.
Applications flow back into Spott without manual exporting or importing. If you use Broadbean’s Candidate Hub flow, applications are also available for review in Broadbean itself; see the Broadbean setup guide for the flow options.
