Click **Create** and you'll land on the job's pipeline. The job starts in **Draft** — it's not public yet.

## Configure settings

Click **Configure** to customize the job posting and application form.

From here you can:

* **Write a job description** (supports markdown)
* **Set salary and equity ranges** to display on your careers page
* **Configure application form fields** — choose which fields (resume, LinkedIn, phone, website) are required, optional, or hidden
* **Add custom screening questions** (short answer, long answer, or URL)
* **Manage pipeline stages** — add, rename, or reorder stages

## Publish

When ready, change the status from **Draft** to **Published** in the settings. The job immediately appears on your [careers page](/help/careers-page).
