Jobshout automatically publishes Jobs via RSS feed

Jobshout RSS feed link

Did you know this?

Whenever a Jobshout user signs up for new Jobshout account and starts publishing jobs on their web site, Jobshout also creates the HTML code which publishes current jobs via RSS. Most browsers will understand this code and will allow users to look and search jobs via RSS.
Jobshout's RSS server also creates the necessary RSS feed of current jobs ready to be served over the internet.

Please check out links below to see Jobshout RSS in action.

feed://jobs.workstation.co.uk/rss.xml
feed://genericsoftware.jobshout.co.uk/rss.xml

By the way, if you want to give others the RSS link for your Jobshout job board, so that candidates can get the latest jobs via RSS automatically, just remember that the RSS feed URL will be based on your job board web site address (URL) and/or unique job board account code as explained below:

If the address for your job board is http://jobs.xyz.co.uk/, the RSS feed will be at://jobs.xyz.co.uk/rss.xml

More information about Jobshout RSS feed URL

Jobshout RSS feed is published in many ways from Jobshout but two well known techniques are as follows:

If your job board is published on the jobshout.co.uk domain, the RSS link will be simply simply:

feed://{Your Jobshout Account Code}.jobshout.co.uk/rss.xml.

A working example RSS feed is feed://genericsoftware.jobshout.co.uk/rss.xml in which case genericsoftware is the unique Jobshout account code.

If your job board runs on your own domain, the link will be something like this: feed://jobs.xyz.co.uk/rss.xml. For example, the Workstation Jobshout job board is at http://jobs.workstation.co.uk. Its RSS feed is at feed://jobs.workstation.co.uk/rss.xml

Most RSS readers come with a scheduler, which will automatically update the jobs feed.

Theg ood news is that most mobile phones (especially iPhone) have an RSS feed reader so users will be able to look at your on their mobiles.

Enjoy!
