For employers
Your dashboard has a hiring checklist: claim your company profile, add your logo, post your first job, post 5, reply to an applicant, and bring in a teammate or your jobs feed. Each step makes your adverts work harder.
Badges jobseekers can see
These show on your company page and on your jobs, so people can tell at a glance that you are real and that you reply.
- Verified: you have claimed your company profile with a work email on your own web domain, or our team has checked it.
- Fast replier: you usually reply to applicants within a day, across at least 5 replies in the last 90 days, and you reply to most of the people who apply.
- Active hirer: you have 5 or more live jobs on YourNextJob.co.uk right now.
A free boost on your 5th job
When your company posts its 5th job here, we boost it free for 7 days, so it shows higher in search and to more jobseekers. It happens automatically, once per company. Posting is free either way.

Questions
Do badges cost anything?
No. Every badge on YourNextJob.co.uk is earned by what you do on the site. Nobody can buy one, for themselves or anyone else.
What counts as an application?
Any job you apply for on YourNextJob.co.uk while signed in. That includes applying here and going through to an employer's own website to apply. Each job counts once, however many times you open it.
When does my week start?
Monday at midnight, UK time. Your weekly goal is 3 applications. Apply to at least one job each week to keep your streak going.
How does an employer earn the Fast replier badge?
By replying to the people who apply through YourNextJob.co.uk, usually within a day, across at least 5 replies in the last 90 days, and replying to most applicants rather than a chosen few.
How does the free boost work?
When a company posts its 5th job on YourNextJob.co.uk, we boost that job free for 7 days so more jobseekers see it. It happens automatically, once per company.
