Imagine writing the perfect job description. Inclusive. Optimized. Tailored for the right audience. Then you post it…and the ideal candidate bounces. Your career site takes forever to load, doesn’t work on mobile, and looks like it was built in 2009.
All that work you did with your JD tool? Wasted.
The Problem: Most JD Software Stops at the Job Description
There’s a gap most teams don’t see until it’s too late. You’ve got a slick JD management system like Ongig’s Text Analyzer. You’ve cleaned up biased language, added clarity, and made it easier for the right candidate to connect with the role. But when it goes live, it’s buried behind a slow ATS link or a cluttered career site.
We’ve seen this play out with dozens of TA teams. They’re refining content to attract top talent but posting it on platforms that turn those candidates off. And that costs you quality, not just quantity.
The Career Site is the First Impression
If your job descriptions are the message, your career site is the stage. And if the stage creaks and wobbles, no one sticks around for the show — especially not the best candidates.
We’ve seen career sites with URLs that scream “outsourced ATS.” Pages that break on mobile. Sites that make it impossible to search for jobs by team or location. Candidates notice.
You’ve got seconds to keep a high-quality candidate’s attention. That’s why your JD tool needs to work hand-in-hand with a career site that delivers a seamless experience.
What Happens When They Work Together
Here’s what happens when Text Analyzer and our Career Site Add-On are used as a team:
1. The right candidates find your jobs
Better SEO and smart job search help ensure that your roles show up in front of the people most likely to thrive in them.
2. The experience is polished and intentional
Readable pages, clear navigation, and a strong brand presence build trust with high-caliber talent — the kind that isn’t applying just anywhere.
3. You can speak directly to key audiences
Landing pages for ERGs, leadership roles, veterans, or niche skill sets show serious candidates that you’ve built a place for them. That builds connection early.
4. You get smarter about what works
Analytics reveal which job pages attract your best applicants. That’s insight you can use to fine-tune your outreach and content over time.
Client Example: From Great Content to Great Hires
One client was using Text Analyzer to build better, more inclusive job descriptions. They weren’t looking for more applicants — they wanted better ones. But top-tier candidates weren’t applying. Why? Their career site was outdated and hard to use.
We implemented the Career Site Add-On. Built clear, mobile-ready job pages. Highlighted their values and team culture. The result? A noticeable increase in qualified applicants who were a better fit for the roles they were applying to.
It’s Not About Volume. It’s About Fit.
Hiring isn’t about getting more applicants anymore. It’s about getting the right ones. You need job content that speaks to top talent — and a career site experience that earns their trust.
Ongig gives you both. That’s how you attract candidates who don’t just apply — they stick.

FAQs
What is a JD management system?
A job description (JD) management system helps you create, edit, and manage job descriptions at scale — with tools to ensure they’re inclusive, readable, and built to attract top-tier talent.
Why does the career site matter if my JDs are optimized?
If your career site is clunky or confusing, the best candidates won’t engage. Strong content needs a strong platform to have impact.
Can Ongig’s Career Site Add-On replace my ATS?
No — it works alongside your ATS. It overlays your job content in a branded, high-performing format while still sending applicants to your existing system.
How hard is it to set up the Career Site Add-On?
We handle the design, setup, and hosting. Most clients are live quickly with minimal effort from internal teams.
What’s the ROI of upgrading both?
Quality hires. You’ll attract the right people with better job content and keep them engaged with a better site experience.
