What’s the Difference Between Creators vs. Seekers?
There are two main user types within the Opportunity Marketplace, including:
Creator
A creator refers to an employee responsible for creating gigs or internal jobs. Creators can create and update job opportunities, review candidate applications, assign candidates to specific opportunities, and close opportunities at the end of the process.
Creators can also leverage Opportunity Marketplace to:
- Create internal gigs and jobs

- Access and view candidate application statuses
Understanding Jobs and Gigs in the Marketplace
Job seekers can leverage Opportunity Marketplace to view jobs, gigs, or both, depending on their organization’s specific enablement requirements and permissions. Opportunities are listed as:
Trending
Trending displays active jobs and gigs posted internally and applied to or bookmarked by other seekers within the past three weeks.
Trending opportunities are only displayed if the seeker currently logged in has selected a preferred location for job alerts or the gig’s primary location matches the seeker’s preferred location.
Recommended
Recommended displays open jobs and gigs that match the seeker’s selected preferences, recently bookmarked jobs, or recently applied opportunities.
Recommendations appear at the top of the list of new opportunities, enabling quicker response times and better efficiency.
Favorites
Favorites display jobs and gigs that employees have previously bookmarked and can be removed from the top of the list at any time.
