Postings#

New#

Here you can create a new posting. This brings you directly to your posting description.

Description

Fill out

  • Copy attributes from previous posting
  • Define type of posting
  • Title of posting
  • Write a short teaser
  • Write your own description to display on your website for your participants
  • Define the length of your posting
  • Compensate students with credits
  • Define whether or, if so, how you are going to pay your participants
  • Choose requirements or limitations by which you sort your participants in two simple steps:
    • First give a general explanation about your requirements and/or limitations
    • Then choose and write out every single requirement or limitation. Your participants will have to confirm them before being able to participate in your posting
    • This is a soft barrier - the posting will still be shown to all participants, whether or not they fulfill these requirements. However, they will be asked to confirm these requirements when they sign up to your posting. User properties are hard barriers - if participants don't have a user property you require, they will not be able to sign up to the posting. For more on user properties, check here.
