Jobroute

Jobroute is programmatic job advertising infrastructure for distributing listings through cost-per-click (CPC) and cost-per-application (CPA) campaigns. It routes jobs to publishers, validates clicks before billing, and attributes applications to the click, campaign, and publisher through server-to-server postbacks. Advertisers and operators can control bids, markdowns, budgets, pacing, country targeting, and title keyword filters per campaign and publisher. Jobroute ingests standard XML job feeds, normalizes and deduplicates listings, and uses streaming ingestion for multi-gigabyte feeds. It can extract salary, job type, and category information from structured fields and free text. Click checks use traffic scoring, challenge verification, geographic checks, velocity analysis, and IP reputation. Foreign, bot, expired, and duplicate clicks are excluded from billing by default, with a reason recorded. Publishers receive compressed XML feeds refreshed through the day and can use redirect URLs and S2S postbacks. Reporting includes real-time operator dashboards, country-level publisher reporting, and daily reconciliation against partner reports. Jobroute says it supports any country and currency. Pricing is on request; job seekers pay nothing, and the company says it does not sell candidate data.
