Yes! Arena understands that many employers use their own Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) or careers pages. You can absolutely link your Arena job listings back to your existing platforms to streamline your hiring process.
🔗 How to add external application links
When posting a job on Arena:
In the job creation form, locate the “Application URL” or “External Application Link” field.
Enter the direct URL to your ATS job posting or careers page where candidates can apply.
Complete the rest of your job post as usual and publish.
💡 What happens when you add a link?
Candidates clicking “Apply” on Arena will be redirected to your specified external page.
Arena will still display your job to relevant candidates in your job posting on the platform and you can view AI matching for applicants who applied from Arena.
You can track engagement metrics from your Arena dashboard.
This keeps your hiring process centralized in your preferred system.
🛠 Tips for a smooth integration
Make sure the external link is live and publicly accessible.
Test the link before publishing your job to avoid broken redirects.
Update the link if your careers page or ATS URLs change.
Use Arena’s messaging tools to communicate with candidates who apply externally, if needed.
