Open Position

Overview

This playbook covers how to reopen a Position that already exists and is currently marked as "Closed". This is distinct from creating a new Position.

Note: This playbook covers reopening a previously closed Position only. For instructions on creating a brand new Position, see 401 - Create-Position.

→ See 111 - Positions for full product knowledge on Positions and Position Status definitions.

Method 1 — Open from the Position Drawer on the Positions Page

Best for: Opening a single Position at a time.

1. Navigate to the Positions Page.
2. Click on a Position marked as "Closed" to open the Position Drawer.
3. At the top left of the drawer, locate the two dropdowns. The dropdown on the left displays the current Position Status — either "Closed" or "Archived".
4. Click the status dropdown to display the full menu and select "Open".

The Position is now marked as Open automatically.

Method 2 — Open a Position by Publishing It

Publishing a Position automatically marks it as Open at the same time — you do not need to open it separately first.

Note: Publishing a Position that is currently Closed will automatically update its status to Open. If any selected Positions are missing required metadata — such as a Landing Page assignment or mandatory Position Tags — they will not be eligible to publish and will remain Closed.

→ See 402 - Publish-Position for all supported methods for publishing a Position.
