ReOpen a Job

Reopening a job refers to the action taken to make a previously closed job posting available again for new applications. The purpose of reopening a job is to reconsider the position's availability due to various reasons such as:

  • Reopening a job may occur if there is a change in the organisation's staffing requirements, such as additional positions becoming available or changes in project scope.
  • If the selected candidate withdraws their application or declines the job offer, the position may need to be reopened to consider new candidates.
  • If there are changes to the job description, qualifications, or responsibilities.
  • Sometimes, a closed job may be reopened if initial recruitment efforts did not yield suitable candidates, and additional recruitment efforts are required to fill the position.
