HTTP/HTTPS (on any TCP port, with or without authentication) is our preferred method for posting vacancies. The reason for this is that in general we are able to obtain an immediate response indicating whether posting the vacancy to your job board was successful.

You will need to tell us which URL you would like us to post the vacancies to, what port number we should use (usually 80) and whether or not you would like us to use HTTP or HTTPS.
