This page explains how registered agencies post and manage jobs on Tourism Update. Questions? Email jobs@tourismupdate.co.za.
Signing in
Sign in at www.tourismupdate.com/agency-login with the email address we registered for your agency. Logins from the old website did not carry over: if you have not signed in on the new site yet, use Register with that same email address, then confirm the code we email you. If you forget your password, use Forgot password.
Once signed in, open My jobs to see your posting allowance and every job your agency has posted.
Loading a job
Fill in the form at the top of My jobs and click Post job. The job goes live on the website straight away and uses one post from your allowance.
Editing a job
Click Edit next to the job in Your jobs, make your changes and save. Editing does not use a post. The job title can't be changed once a job is posted.
Renewing a job
A job can't be extended past its 30 days. To run it again, post it again as a new job (this uses one post from your allowance).
Expiring a job
When a position is filled, click Expire next to the job. It comes off the website at once.
How long a job stays live
Every job is listed in the jobs section for 30 days from the day it is posted, then expires automatically.
New jobs are promoted for 72 hours
For its first 72 hours, a new job is promoted in the Featured Jobs box on the homepage and in the daily newsletter. Each agency gets one place: if you post several jobs, your newest one is shown.
Your featured job
Each agency can have one featured job. It stays promoted on the homepage and in the newsletter for as long as it is live, not just for 72 hours, and takes your agency's place there. Click Feature next to a job to make it your featured job. If you already have a featured job, you will see "This replaces your current featured job" with its title; confirming switches Feature off on the old job and on for the new one. Click Unfeature to switch it off. Expired and unpublished jobs can't be featured.
Ad hoc jobs
Companies without an agency account can advertise a single vacancy through Advertise a vacancy. Our team checks it before it goes live. Each ad hoc job is promoted for its first 72 hours, in its own place, and is listed for 30 days.
Your posting allowance
Your allowance is shown at the top of My jobs. It is either a number of job post credits (each job you post uses one credit) or a monthly limit (a number of posts per calendar month, which resets on the 1st). Editing, expiring and featuring jobs never use your allowance. To top up or change your allowance, contact us.
