What’s new on jobs.ly

1. 2026-11-06 to 2026-11-09Latest

   Benefits for each job and faster contact with clients

   • NewEmployers and agencies

     Set benefits for each job: a job shows your organization's benefits until you change them for that job, and AI ticks the benefits your notes or advert mention for you to check before publishing.

   • ImprovedEmployers and agencies

     The benefits list grows from 10 to 26, in groups with a search, including a housing allowance, travel tickets, visa and security clearance and a rotation schedule.

   • ImprovedJob seekers

     Job pages now show that job's own benefits, from a fuller list that includes a housing allowance, travel tickets, visa support and a rotation schedule.

   • ImprovedRecruitment agencies

     In the sales tools, call, WhatsApp or email a company's main contact in one tap from your lists: companies, follow-ups, deals and Today.

   • FixedEveryone

     Fields side by side in forms now line up whatever the length of their labels or notes, and every page's first heading is its own title for screen readers.

   • ImprovedEveryone

     Logos, cover photos and illustrations are now described for screen readers.

   • FixedRecruitment agencies

     Contacts imported from a spreadsheet no longer show «NULL» as their job title in the sales lists, and records already saved were cleaned.

2. 2026-11-01 to 2026-11-05

   Fuller CVs and clearer follow up

   • ImprovedJob seekers

     Add courses and certificates with expiry dates, projects, volunteering, degree grades, driving licences and portfolio links. Your newest experience appears first, duties are easier to scan, and total experience is shown when dates are complete.

   • NewJob seekers

     “New in your CV” gives you a personal completion checklist. With alerts enabled, your daily job email can remind you before a saved job you have not applied to ends.

   • NewJob seekers

     If you are not selected, “A tip from jobs.ly” may highlight skills requested in the advert that your CV does not show. Review them and add only those you actually have; the tip does not explain the employer’s decision.

   • ImprovedEveryone

     Messages now read more like a conversation, with clear dates and times, an accessible reply box, and conversations alongside the open thread on desktop.

   • ImprovedEmployers and agencies

     Your follow-up list now highlights requests for another interview time, unrecorded attendance, jobs without applicants and relevant people you already know. Review applicants who have waited and send a polite response, with a message preview and Undo.

   • ImprovedOrganizations

     Choose a sector that better reflects your activity, and see in the monthly report, for each job, the applicants still waiting for your response.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     Record partial payments, prepare client statements, set payment schedules and allocate one payment across several invoices. Keep proposal files private, subscribe to follow-ups in your calendar, and record client emails using your private Bcc address.

   • FixedEveryone

     The monthly report compares the same days of last month, counts replies only once an applicant's week is over, shows rate changes in points and counts new jobs only once they're live. Today no longer shows an interview as on when the applicant asked for another time, the Deals page's first-prospect link works, and the site's font shows on the first page of a first visit.

3. 2026-10-25 to 2026-10-31

   Easier posting and agency sales tools

   • NewJob seekers

     “Quick apply” identifies jobs that accept applications inside jobs.ly. Share a personal referral link with someone you know; the employer can see the referrer and the applicant can remove the attribution.

   • NewEmployers and agencies

     Paste an existing advert to have AI prepare draft fields for you to review before publishing. You can continue manually if assistance is unavailable.

   • NewHiring teams

     Mark essential screening requirements and prepare shared interview questions alongside scorecards. Matching answers are prioritized for review without automatically rejecting applicants.

   • ImprovedEmployers and agencies

     Use editable saved messages suggested for each hiring stage, and add your organization’s own words to selected application updates. Departments and branches are easier to set up and choose while posting.

   • NewAgencies on the Agency plan

     Manage prospects, contacts, deals and follow-ups. Follow a deal from first contact to agreement, review sales results and import records from a spreadsheet.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     After posting for a newly named client, save its details to your client list or link the job to an existing client.

   • NewLBC organizations

     Move from the LBC portal into job posting on jobs.ly, with published member vacancies appearing on lbc.ly.

   • ImprovedEveryone

     Clearer job cards and search on phones, better responsiveness on slow connections and improved readability with enlarged text.

   • FixedEveryone

     A failed CV save no longer removes your saved CV file, and an applicant turned down with an interview booked gets one clear message. «Write it with AI» works again and the requirements you tick in it are published, searching «سواق» finds drivers first and search also reads requirements, and each shared interview time shows its own length and place.

4. 2026-10-17 to 2026-10-24

   Direct conversations and more control over your data

   • NewJob seekers and hiring teams

     Conversations inside jobs.ly support application follow-up, alongside support conversations and agency–client messages. Private team comments remain separate from outgoing messages.

   • NewJob seekers

     When AI is available, empty CV sections can be filled from a file you previously uploaded without replacing what you wrote. Added sections are marked for your review.

   • NewJob seekers

     Application steps ask for relevant missing information and explain why it is requested. Edit the words, city and field of a job alert, and manage signed-in devices.

   • ImprovedEmployers

     Clearer account preparation shows which organization details are needed before publishing, with work-email confirmation. You can also confirm required and preferred skills for a vacancy.

   • ImprovedHiring teams

     Compare candidates more easily on desktop, filter by job and stage, prioritize those waiting longest, change a stage from the list and download the filtered list.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     Follow a first-week checklist, import clients and contacts from a spreadsheet, and embed a public client’s jobs on its website. Enable interview invitations for the client’s contact when needed.

   • ImprovedEveryone

     Report organization pages, public CVs and messages as well as jobs. Clearer privacy information, more complete data downloads and tighter CV-sharing controls make access easier to understand.

   • NewOrganizations and agencies

     An organization can request ownership of a page managed by an agency through a reviewed, notified handover that preserves recruitment records.

   • FixedEveryone

     A CV started from Apply or the fit check asks before turning on match alerts, contact details written inside a CV no longer reach an agency's clients, and signing out stops notifications and clears recent searches on that device. The site's font no longer goes missing after a slow first page, organization settings can be edited again on computers, and a message to several applicants skips stopped conversations.

5. 2026-10-11 to 2026-10-16

   From application to interview and offer

   • NewJob seekers

     Apply with your CV file inside the application box or build a basic CV there. Support was added for CV images and accepted older Word files, with visible upload progress.

   • NewJob seekers

     My applications shows when an employer viewed your application or tried to call or WhatsApp you. Withdraw with a chance to undo, and reapply to an open job from the next day.

   • ImprovedJob seekers

     When AI is available, you can start a personal job-fit check from your CV file after signing in. This personal check is not sent to the employer.

   • ImprovedJob seekers

     Search better understands misspellings and everyday wording, with suggested corrections and nearby jobs when useful. CVs, applications and saved jobs are easier to reach on phones.

   • NewEmployers and agencies

     Respond from an applicant’s card, CV or email link; pause a vacancy and resume it later; and review a job draft in one language.

   • NewHiring teams and applicants

     Coordinate shared interview slots, record attendance, send and answer job offers, amend terms and deadlines, and confirm the actual start date.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     Record placements, fees, due dates and replacement guarantees, and prepare printable invoices with your bank details. Clients can propose interview times.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     A private page for each client contact brings together the candidates shared with that person. Candidate-review and billing permissions are separate, with clearer team reporting.

   • FixedEveryone

     Match scores, the fit check and suggestions read your latest CV, job alerts no longer miss jobs approved after review or resend old ones, and pages no longer break with the browser's automatic translation. Closing a job after hiring answers only applicants still waiting, interview reminders stop for suspended employers, and a dropped connection keeps what you typed. Privacy fixes protect applicants' names in blind review and private clients' names.

6. 2026-10-04 to 2026-10-10

   Holding accounts and clearer journeys

   • NewGroups of companies

     Register a group account and manage subsidiary pages and vacancies within shared plan limits.

   • ImprovedEmployers and agencies

     Improved job editing and advert formatting, plus a preview and controls for how your logo fits its frame.

   • ImprovedEveryone

     Navigation and search better reflect your account type, with improved mobile filters. Form edits survive failed saves, and adverts explain their original language when a translation is unavailable.

   • FixedEveryone

     Your CV edits are kept if the site is updated while you write, candidates no longer disappear from team lists because the Mine / Everyone choice switched by itself, name boxes no longer bring back an old name or move the cursor, client contact forms show words instead of codes, and optional choices in the job brief can be cleared.

7. 2026-09-29 to 2026-10-03

   Candidate review and team hiring

   • ImprovedEmployers and agencies

     Job-title, skill and duty suggestions help you prepare clearer adverts, with optional AI drafting.

   • NewHiring teams

     Shared scorecards, interview times applicants can choose, and an application funnel help organize review. Optional blind first review hides identifying details until shortlisting.

   • NewVerified organizations

     Publish confidential vacancies with the employer’s name hidden under the feature’s conditions.

   • NewRecruitment agencies

     Invite internal hiring managers to assigned jobs, distinguish hiring for your agency from hiring for a client, and give multiple client contacts private review links.

   • NewOrganizations on eligible plans

     Candidate tags and saved searches help organize people and return to useful searches.

   • NewEveryone

     Control text size, contrast and appearance. Search filters behave more consistently, and hiring accounts require approval before their jobs are published.

   • FixedEveryone

     Search keeps the city when you then pick a field, and an out-of-range salary filter no longer looks applied. Arabic lines with English words stay right to left, a sign-in email that can't be sent is explained, stopping the CV reminder no longer stops job alerts, employers' job cards show their applicant counts, and menus open quickly on slow connections.

8. 2026-09-23 to 2026-09-28

   First release and launch updates

   • NewJob seekers

     Search by city, field and work type; save jobs; build an Arabic and English CV manually or with AI assistance; download a PDF or enable an optional public link.

   • NewEveryone

     A mobile-friendly Arabic and English experience, passwordless email sign-in, dark mode and guidance for using the platform and preparing for work. Launch updates added a direct sign-in button in email and clearer CV display and printing.

   • FixedEveryone

     Imported jobs show their original posting and closing dates, pages such as Contact, Privacy and Help load without redrawing, and asking twice for a bank-transfer invoice no longer creates two invoices.

Related updates are grouped into periods for easier reading. Some tools depend on your plan and verification; AI help is available when it’s switched on.
