JobZilla - Job Board WordPress Theme 1.9

JobZilla is a high-performance, specialized WordPress theme designed for building professional job portals and recruitment platforms. While some themes like Foxin or Versatile focus on general corporate presence, JobZilla is a "utility theme" that transforms your site into a fully functional marketplace for employers and job seekers.

As of late 2025, JobZilla is recognized for its seamless integration with industry-standard plugins like WP Job Manager, making it a robust alternative to larger, more expensive job board software.

## Core Recruitment Features

Dual Dashboards: Provides two distinct front-end panels:

Employer Dashboard: For posting jobs, managing applications, and reviewing candidate resumes.

Candidate Dashboard: For creating professional profiles, uploading CVs, and tracking job applications.

Advanced Ajax Filters: Allows users to filter jobs by location, category, job type (full-time, remote, etc.), and salary range in real-time without refreshing the page.

Monetization Ready: Built-in compatibility with WooCommerce allows you to charge employers for "Featured" job postings or sell subscription packages for job listings.

Resume Manager: A dedicated system for candidates to build and showcase their resumes directly on your site, which employers can browse or "bookmark."

Email Notifications: Automated alerts for both candidates (when a matching job is posted) and employers (when a new application is received).

## Why Choose JobZilla Over Others?

If you are looking at the previous themes we discussed, here is where JobZilla sits:

JobZilla vs. Sallira: Sallira is for a startup company; JobZilla is for a startup job board.

JobZilla vs. Mediclick/Isida: While those themes handle appointments, they aren't built to handle hundreds of concurrent job listings and applicant databases.

JobZilla vs. Krunk: JobZilla is a functional tool; Krunk is a creative blog.

Security Note: The latest v2.0.1 (August-November 2025) update included critical CSRF security patches. If you are using an older version, ensure you update immediately to protect your user database.

### Strategy: Launching Your Portal

If you're using JobZilla to start a new job board, I recommend focusing on the "Featured Listings" feature first. By offering a few free listings to top companies and marking them as "Featured," you can populate your board with high-quality content quickly, which in turn attracts the first wave of job seekers.
