Healthcare job advert checker
Score your draft advert against Google’s JobPosting field spec in seconds. The verdict and score are free — no email. Unlock a pre-filled template and a ready JSON-LD snippet when you want them.
How the score works
The four required fields (title, description, hiring organisation, location) decide Google-for-Jobs eligibility and are worth 60 of the 100 points. Four recommended fields (employment type, salary, closing date, how to apply) add 28, and the two healthcare best-practice fields (registration requirement, DBS level) add 12. The rubric comes from Google’s published JobPosting guidelines; the tool judges only how complete your own advert is.

GeraJobs is a job board — not a recruitment agency and not a healthcare regulator. We do not register, vet, place, or supply staff, and we do not guarantee any number of applicants. Posting a role means publishing your own advertisement. Hiring decisions, right-to-work checks, DBS checks, and professional-registration checks remain the employer’s responsibility. Any international-hiring information here is general guidance for individuals who choose to move of their own accord; as a matter of policy we provide information only and do not actively recruit from countries on the WHO 2023 Health Workforce Support and Safeguards List. Fees, pay scales, structured-data rules and immigration rules change — always confirm the current position with the relevant official source before acting.
