Location information (Japan)

 

body.location fields

When you create or upsert jobs in Japan with createSourcedJobPostings, use these requirements for body.location:

body.location fields

Field	Description
cityRegionPostal	Set this field to NULL, or omit it.
country	Required. Set this field to "JP".
streetAddress	If metadata.taxonomyClassification.remoteType is "Fully Remote": Set this field to NULL, or omit it. Otherwise: Set this field to the street address of the job's primary work location. Include the street name and number. For examples, see streetAddress examples. Indeed might use this field to improve location-based matching and can show it to job seekers.

streetAddress examples

Set body.location.streetAddress to the exact address of the job's primary work location. Start with the postal code and end with the street numbers. A more precise address helps Indeed match your job with job seekers who search in or near a specific location.

Acceptable examples

Acceptable streetAddress examples

Example	Description
〒100-6640 東京都千代田区丸の内１丁目９−２グラントウキョウサウスタワー	Ideal format.
〒100-6640 東京都千代田区丸の内１丁目９−２	You can omit the building name.
100-6640 東京都千代田区丸の内１丁目９−２	Acceptable, but Indeed prefers that you include 〒.
東京都千代田区丸の内1-9-2	Acceptable, but Indeed prefers that you include a postal code.
〒100-6640 東京都千代田区丸の内東京駅	Acceptable only if the job is performed inside the station. If a job seeker searches for jobs near a station, Indeed looks up jobs near that station. See this example on jp.indeed.com.

Imprecise examples

Use a less precise streetAddress only when necessary, for example:

• Privacy concerns, such as a home address
• Jobs without one fixed address, such as a driver role with multiple pickup points

An imprecise address can make matching harder. If the address is too imprecise, the job posting might be moderated.

Acceptable imprecise streetAddress examples

Example	Description
東京都千代田区丸の内	The job is performed in 東京都千代田区丸の内.
東京都千代田区	The job is performed in 東京都千代田区.
東京都	The job is performed in 東京都.

Unacceptable examples

Unacceptable streetAddress examples

Example	Description
東京都, 千代田区, 丸の内, １丁目９−２	Do not use separators like , between address parts.
〒100-6640１−９−２	Do not place the postal code directly before the street numbers. This format is harder for Indeed to process.
丸の内 1-9-2	Do not use a partial address.
東京都千代田区丸の内1-9-2 (東京駅南口から徒歩3分)	Do not include non-address information. Put additional details in body.description.
全国	Do not set streetAddress to 全国 unless metadata.taxonomyClassification.remoteType is "Fully Remote".
東京都千代田区丸の内。埼玉県、神奈川県、千葉県など全国店舗にて募集案件あり	Do not include multiple locations in this field. Create one job posting for each location.

Code example

This example calls createSourcedJobPostings with body.location set correctly. Other fields are omitted for brevity.

mutation CreateSourcedJobPostings() {
  jobsIngest {
    createSourcedJobPostings(input: {
      jobPostings: [
        {
          body: {
            ...
            location: {
              country: "JP"
              streetAddress: "〒100-6640 東京都千代田区丸の内１丁目９−２グラントウキョウサウスタワー"
            }
            ...
          }
        }
      ]
    }) {
      results {
        ...
      }
    }
  }
}
