Description
GetSmartHire Careers allows companies using GetSmartHire to display their public job openings directly on a WordPress website.
The plugin connects your WordPress site to your company’s public GetSmartHire careers page using an integration API key. Once configured, you can display your public careers page, list open jobs, show job details, and allow candidates to submit applications from your WordPress website.
Each company has one public careers page in GetSmartHire. A company may create multiple integration API keys, but each key only authenticates access to that company’s public careers page and public jobs. The key does not create a separate careers page.
This plugin is useful for companies that want to add an AI-powered careers portal to their existing WordPress site without manually copying job descriptions or managing applications separately.
Features include:
- Display public jobs from GetSmartHire
- Show job details directly on WordPress
- Allow candidates to apply through an application form
- Support resume uploads
- Configure jobs per page
- Customize the primary button color
- Enable or disable the application form
- Cache public job data to improve performance
Configuration
The plugin settings page supports the following options:
- API Base URL
- API Key
- Jobs per page
- Primary button color
- Enable application form
- Cache duration in minutes
Default API Base URL:
https://api.getsmarthire.com
The API key must be generated from your GetSmartHire account. It is used to authenticate your WordPress website with your company’s public careers page.
Shortcodes
Display the full careers experience:
[getsmarthire_careers]
This shortcode includes the company careers header, filters, jobs list, inline job details, and application form when applications are enabled.
You can add this shortcode to any WordPress page, post, or shortcode-compatible block.
Security Note
The integration API key is used server-side by WordPress and should not be exposed publicly.
Only use API keys generated from your GetSmartHire account. If you believe an API key has been compromised, revoke it from your GetSmartHire account and generate a new one.
