The JOBS function of the Widget API is called on to the target page with an HTML <div> element. It carries a number of data properties that control and filter the results being displayed.

Those results are represented in an HTML table with the following columns:

• Job Vacancy
• Category (industry)
• Subcategory (area of interest)
• Location – suburb/town
• Region – broad regional area
• Type – full time, part-time, school-based

An example is shown below:

<div class="apprenticeship-central-jobs"
data-employer="246"
data-region="gold-coast"
data-limit="2"
data-page="/job/detail/">
</div>

The key element that drives the process is the class="apprenticeship-central-jobs" attribute and it must be present for the API to function.

Data Properties

• data-employer – the employer property holds the ID of the Apprenticeship Central employer whose jobs should be displayed. This property is required.
• data-region – the region property holds the region “slug”, which is a URL-friendly version of the region name.  There is  complete list of region slugs here. This property is optional.
• data-type – the page property holds the type_id that represents the employment type. 1 = full-time, 2 = part-time and 3 = school-based. This property is optional.
• data-limit – the limit property controls the number of results returned. This property is optional and strongly advised if the list is likely to be long.
• data-exclude – the exclude property is a comma separated list of fields to exclude from the table returned. The internal field names which are used in this property can be found here.
• data-page – the page property holds the URL of the page that will display the specific job detail. Relative URLs are recommended. This property is required.
