Recruit a student with JobTeaser Portal

Creating an account with an email address

First make sure that you wish to use JobTeaser only for posting job ads.

• Recruiter account is the best if you just want to post job ads.
• If in addition you wish to build your employer brand by creating a company account and use the Talent Bank function, you should set up a company account.

You can use the same email address only to one account in Metropolia's JobTeaser:

• It is not possible to create also a company account while you simultaneously have a recruiter account. You can, however, later on delete your recruiter account and set up a company account.
• A possible join email address (e.g. recruitment(at)company.org) can only be used for one recruiter account.

You set up an account on https://metropolia.jobteaser.com/en/recruiter_account/sign_in

The same address is used when logging into JobTeaser later on.

If you use JobTeaser portals of several institutions, kindly note that you should first log out from another institution's JobTeaser before logging into Metropolia's JobTeaser.

After this you will be asked to complete the basic information of your organisation.

• Business type = pick the type of business that best describes your organisation currently

In the future you will access your account through the same address: https://metropolia.jobteaser.com/en/recruiter_account/sign_in

Creating an account with an email address

First make sure that the company account suits best your needs.

• The recruiter account is your best option, if you only wish to post job ads to Metropolia.
• The company account serves your needs better, if you also want to develop your employer brand by creating a company profile and to use the Talent Bank function. Students and professionals can start to follow your company profile. The posted jobs will be automatically shown in your profile.

You may use the same email address only to one account in Metropolia's JobTeaser:

• It is not possible to have simultaneously a recruiter account under the same email address. You can, however, delete your company account and set up a recruiter account.
• A possible joint email address (e.g. recruitment(at)company.org) can only be used to one account on JobTeaser. Nonetheless, Metropolia can add several users from your organisation, with their individual email addresses, to your company profile.

You can set up an account on https://metropolia.jobteaser.com/en/company_account/sign_in

The same address is used when you log into your account later on.

If you use the JobTeaser portals of several institutions, kindly note that you must first log out from another institution's JobTeaser before logging into Metropolia's JobTeaser.

Information of the organisation

After this you will be asked to complete the basic information of your organisation.

Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk *.

Company info

• Company* = name of the organisation
• Group = if you are part of a bigger organisation, you can name the group here
• Industry* = the main industry your organisation operates in
• National ID = the organisational ID code (e.g. in Finland business ID or VAT ID)
• Business type = pick the type of business that best describes your organisation currently
• Logo = the logo should in jpeg, gif or png format and the size min. 100 x 100 px

This is the information that is shown on each job ad you post with this account.

Save the data and your account is ready! Remember to save your password. You can always access your account also through the Forgot password function.

In the future you will access your account through the same address: https://metropolia.jobteaser.com/en/company_account/sign_in

Setting up the company profile (About us section visible to users)

Students and professionals using JobTeaser will be able to see in their own view the company profiles and they can start to follow the organisations interesting to them.

You can set up two types of versions of the profile:

• light version: About us (description of your organisation), Jobs (open positions automatically linked to your profile when you post them through your account)
• extended version: About us, Jobs, Teams (information about different teams/career paths in your organisation), Events (management of events targeted to users), News (more actively updated content).

The default is the light version. Once you have created your profile, Metropolia will contact you and will check if you rather wish to get the extended version. Often a well-prepared light version is better than a passively updated extended version.

Once you set up your profile, only the fields marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory; the rest is up to you to decide.

It is worth it to pay careful attention when setting up your profile. Note e.g.:

• The interesting information for users is for example what kinds of career paths your organisation offers, possible regular work placement or summer job opportunities and the opportunities to do a thesis project for your organisation.
• Note that you profile is shown to all users in Metropolia's JobTeaser and some of them do not speak fluent Finnish. It is better to publish the profile both in Finnish and in English: this way you will reach a wider audience and you will build your brand also as an employer who welcomes international talents.
• You can update your profile information whenever.
• Your profile will be visible to users only after Metropolia publishes it.

By clicking "Edit" you can start setting up your profile. You can add the following information by your choice:

• logo and a picture of your organisation
• social media links
• video presenting your organisation
• basic information of the organisation: CEO, picture of the CEO, year when the organisation started, number of staff, number of countries with offices, key figures of business operations, location of headquarters
• free-format description of the organisation, with the possibility to add text, links and pictures and basic tools to modify the text
• values and culture of your organisation
• possible career paths and work profiles in your organisation
• recruitment process: you can add the contact details for recruitment and describe how the recruitment process takes place
• happy trainee permalink: you can ignore this field, it is added for certification purposes in some European countries

Publishing the profile

Within a few days after you have created a profile, Metropolia will contact you to confirm:

• if you wish to use the light or extended profile
• if the profile is ready to be published.

After you confirm your wishes, Metropolia will check the profile and publish it within a few days. At the same time you will also be granted the access to Talent Bank. We reserve the right to not publish profiles that do not comply with the Finnish law or regulations or otherwise considered not appropriate.

In urgent matters you can contact the JobTeaser main user Outi: outi.lemettinen [at] metropolia.fi (outi[dot]lemettinen[at]metropolia[dot]fi).
