No API key or license is required. Employed (employed.com.br) is a Brazilian job platform for candidates. Job listings are aggregated from multiple external portals. **Features** * Zero-config setup: choose one or more states (UF) or a specific city, then sync. * City picker uses official IBGE municipality names (cached locally). * Custom post type `empljoim_job` with archive at `/vagas/`. * Daily automatic sync (~04:00 site timezone) plus manual sync. * Google for Jobs `JobPosting` JSON-LD on single job pages. * Apply button on job pages. * Shortcode `[employed_jobs]` and styled archive/single templates. Job data is provided by [Employed](https://employed.com.br/). Application happens on the Employed website. ### External services This plugin connects to third-party services over HTTPS. No personal visitor data from your site is sent to these services when a visitor only browses pages. Data is sent from your WordPress server during admin configuration, manual sync, scheduled sync, or when loading the city list. #### Employed job feed This plugin uses the public Employed distribution API to import job listings into WordPress. **Service:** [Employed](https://employed.com.br/) — Brazilian job platform that aggregates listings from external portals. **Used for:** Downloading job listings filtered by state (UF) and optionally by city, then storing them locally as `empljoim_job` posts. **When data is sent:** On manual sync, on the daily cron (~04:00 site timezone), and during paginated feed requests while sync runs. **Data sent:** Your server IP address, a `User-Agent` string identifying the plugin and your site URL, an optional `X-EMPLJOIM-Site` header containing `home_url('/')`, and query parameters (`estado`, optional `cidade`, pagination). No WordPress user accounts or site visitor personal data are transmitted. **Legal:** [Terms of Use](https://employed.com.br/termos-de-uso/), [Privacy Policy](https://employed.com.br/politica-de-privacidade/) #### IBGE municipality API This plugin uses the public IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) API to populate the city dropdown when you choose city scope. **Service:** IBGE — `servicodados.ibge.gov.br` **Used for:** Loading official municipality names for a selected Brazilian state( UF). Results are cached locally on your site for 30 days. **When data is sent:** When an administrator selects a UF in city scope, clicks ** Update list**, or when the city list is loaded in the settings screen. **Data sent:** The selected UF code in the request URL only. No personal data is sent. **Legal:** [Privacy Policy](https://www.ibge.gov.br/acesso-informacao/politica-de-privacidade.html), [About IBGE](https://www.ibge.gov.br/) ## Installation 1.

Install, choose your scope, and sync. ### Where does the city list come from? From the public IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) API. Municipality names are cached on your site for 30 days. ### Where does Apply send users? To the canonical job page on employed.com.br. The plugin does not store or expose employer direct application URLs. ### What is the difference between State and City scope? **State** imports jobs from one or more selected UFs. **City** imports jobs filtered to a single municipality within one UF. ### How often does sync run? A daily cron runs around 04:00 in your site timezone. You can also sync manually from the plugin settings screen. ### Does this plugin affect my theme? No theme changes are required. The plugin registers its own post type, templates, schema markup, and shortcode. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Employed Jobs Importer” is open source software.
