Job status

A job can have three different statuses—open, closed, or started—based on the job's start and end dates.

note

Both start and end dates are optional

Open

• The job is open when it is available for applications and has not yet started or ended.
• Example: The start date is in the future or not set, and the end date has not passed (or is not set).

Started

• The job is considered started when the job’s start date has arrived or passed, but the end date has not yet been reached.
• Example: The start date is in the past or today, and the end date is either in the future or not set.

Closed

• The job is closed when it is no longer active. This usually means the end date has passed, regardless of whether a start date was set.
• Example: The end date has passed, or the job has been manually closed, even if there was no start date.

note

• Open: job is available for applications, hasn't started
• Started: job has begun but hasn't ended
• Closed: job is no longer active
