How to set up ur job swipe images
Job Swipe Images are one of the most important parts of creating a vacancy on urfuture. They act as the "cover image" for ur job and are often the first thing candidates notice when browsing opportunities.
A great image can significantly increase engagement and encourage more candidates to view ur vacancy.
Image Dimensions
For the best experience, upload images in:
- 1080 × 1920 pixels (9:16 Portrait)
- JPG or PNG format
- Maximum file size: 10MB
- High-resolution images only
Using the correct dimensions ensures ur image displays perfectly across the app without being cropped.
What Makes a Great Job Swipe Image?
Choose images that help candidates imagine themselves working for ur organisation.
We recommend using:
- Real employees
- Apprentices or graduates
- Teams collaborating
- Workplace environments
- Company events
- Employees interacting with customers
- Branded office or workplace spaces
- Behind-the-scenes moments
- Day-in-the-life photography
Authentic photography consistently performs better than generic stock images.
Include Ur Branding
Where possible, include subtle employer branding such as:
- Company logo
- Company colours
- Uniforms
- Branded vehicles
- Office signage
This helps candidates instantly recognise ur organisation while keeping the focus on the people.
Represent Candidates
Candidates want to see themselves represented.
Use imagery that reflects:
- Different backgrounds
- Different ages
- Mixed genders
- Inclusive workplaces
- Real teams
Authentic representation helps build trust and encourages a wider range of candidates to engage with ur vacancies.
Things to avoid
Avoid filling the image with lots of information, as the job details are displayed elsewhere in the app.
Avoid using images that:
- Are blurry or low quality
- Are heavily pixelated
- Contain large amounts of text
- Use generic stock photography
- Have distracting backgrounds
- Don't relate to the role
- Stretch or crop incorrectly
Poor quality images can reduce candidate engagement.
Using Additional Employer Brands
If you've created additional employer brands within ur Company Profile, upload Job Swipe Images to each employer profile.
When posting a vacancy, simply select the relevant employer and the platform will automatically populate the associated Job Swipe Images.
This saves time and keeps branding consistent across every vacancy.
