# Posting a job on Craigslist

While [CareerPlug does not automatically send jobs to Craigslist](https://adpsupport.careerplug.com/job-boards-where-careerplug-automatically-sends-your-jobs?hsLang=en), you can manually posting your job there to attract a wider variety of applicants.

2\. Click the **three-dots icon** to the right of whichever job you want to post to Craigslist and select **Share** from the drop-down menu.

3\. In the Share Job pop-up window, click the **Track Manual Sources** tile to open the Manual Sources drawer.

![Share Job Modal (No QR or TTA) (Manual Sources arrow)](https://adpsupport.careerplug.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Share%20Job%20Modal%20(No%20QR%20or%20TTA)%20(Manual%20Sources%20arrow).png?width=688&height=387&name=Share%20Job%20Modal%20(No%20QR%20or%20TTA)%20(Manual%20Sources%20arrow).png)

3\. In the Manual Sources drawer, click the **Copy** button to the right of Craigslist.

4\. Select **Copy link with description** from the drop-down menu.

5\. Sign in to [Craigslist](http://www.craigslist.org).

**Note:** Some cities may ask you to "choose the area nearest you" as an added step.

10\. Type or copy and paste the job title into the **posting title** field (note: there is a limit of 70 characters for this field, so you may need to shorten your job title for Craigslist).

11\. Input in your office location (city or suburb) into the **specific location** field. You'll also need to fill in your **postal code** (zip code).

13\. Next, select **employment type** (under "posting details").

14\. Enter **compensation** information.
