Creating & Managing JobsRe Activating A Job

Re-activating a Job

Re-open a closed or expired job in Xinterview by setting a new deadline and making it live again.

Re-activating a Job

Jobs can be re-activated after an expired deadline, a manual closure, or paused recruitment. When you re-activate a job, Xinterview opens it for applications again with a new deadline.

When to re-activate?

Use re-activation when a job was closed for one of these reasons:

  • Expired deadline — The original deadline passed and the job is no longer live.
  • Manual closure — Someone closed the job before the deadline.
  • Paused recruitment — Hiring was paused and you want to resume the posting.

How to re-activate a job

Navigate to the closed or expired job

Open the job from your closed or expired jobs list.

Select Activate

Click Activate to reopen the job. Xinterview opens a modal window for the new deadline.

Set a new deadline

Enter the new deadline date and choose how long the job should remain active.

Use the modal to confirm the new deadline date and the remaining active period before you save.

Confirm the new deadline

Confirm the updated deadline to make the job live again.

Job is now active

The job is live again with the new deadline, and candidates can apply immediately.
