Edit Your Company Overview

From the Edit Company link, you'll see a pop-up that will allow you to edit your Headline, Company Intro, and Location Description. Here are some pointers on what to include in each field.

Headline: The headline is an opportunity to grab the attention of Job Seekers with something unique, genuine, or special about spending a season with your company. What's the best thing about living and working there? Whatever you want to emphasize about your company and joining your team, include it in your headline.

Company Intro: Provide 2 - 4 sentences of basic information about your company's history, basic operations, values, and/or mission.

Location Description:CoolWorks Job Seekers are looking to discover Great Places through seasonal jobs. Use this section to describe your Great Place, including nearby attractions (National Parks, mountain ranges, beaches, outdoor recreational opportunities, etc.).

Complete "The Scoop"

The Scoop (aka Company Details) contains basic information that we've found a lot of our Job Seekers want to know before making a commitment to move across the country to spend a season at your Great Place. Be thorough and transparent: it doesn't do anyone any favors to sugar coat the facts. And if you don't have great phone coverage or internet, don't fret! Lots of CoolWorks Job Seekers are excited at the prospect of being able to disconnect.

Edit your Contact Info and How to Apply Instructions

The Contact Info is how you would like Job Seekers to reach you if they'd like more information. Be as thorough here as you'd like. If you don't want your phone ringing off the hook with questions, feel free to leave some fields blank. Your How to Apply section is the default information you'd like to provide applicants on how to apply for your positions. You'll have the opportunity to provide more/different instructions on How to Apply on your individual Job Posts as well.
