Release 1.3

Latest new features:

• Full customization: You can completely customize the look of your job board (HTML/CSS and custom domain names). To get an idea of the possibilities, visit example #1 vs example #2. Go ahead and customize your job board.
  
  
• Track job applications: You need repeat customers. When a company posts a job, whether they post again or not is determined by the response they receive. JobCoin now tracks how many people apply to each job on your board. Search by job name to see the statistics.
  
  This figure started tracking as of 1/15. It's not 100% fool proof, people can always write down an email address on a piece of paper and apply from a different computer. But if they click on anything in the "How to apply" section of a job (email addresses or links), it's being tracked.
  
  
• Auto-collecting feedback: Every time a job expires, your job board emails the poster to: (1) let them know, (2) give them the option to post it again, and (3) to ask them to provide feedback about the results they received. We're trying to help you run a successful job board. Feedback from your customers is essential.

Release 1.2

Latest new features:

• This Blog: It's not exactly a feature, but one of the most important things we can do to help you succeed with your job board is to share the best tips that we learn from others. We'll continue to develop this resource.
  
• Customization: For advanced users, we now give you all the pieces of our widget so you can integrate your job board seamlessly throughout your site, or build a complete new widget. I'd love to see how you use these pieces, e-mail me a link.  Widget #4
  
• Statistics: Now you can integrate Google Analytics or your favorite reporting software to get detailed reports on your job board traffic.  Add custom tracking code to your board in Advanced Configuration.
  
• Email Newsletter: If your run an email newsletter for your website, now we make it easy to include active job posts in the e-mail. Each newsletter just copy & paste this Promote Jobs code.
