DocCafé feed: Using the US Visa Sponsor Field

The DocCafé Syndication feed can have a field which indicates whether or not a US visa can be sponsored for the given job. By default the value for this field comes from the ‘willSponsor’ field in Bullhorn, but this can be modified using filters.

Importing the Job Data

The first step to including this data in the feed is to ensure that the job data is being imported from your ATS. The simplest way of doing this is using our Job Object Customizer Extension.

If you are using the ‘willSponsor’ field, then simply making sure it is being imported as part of the job data is enough to make it appear in the feed. However, you may wish to use a different field in your ATS.

Using an Alternative ATS Field:

The ‘matador_extension_feeds_doccafe_us_visa_sponsor_field’ filter enables you to modify the field used.

See below for an example of using this filter to change the field used to ‘customText1’:

add_filter( 'matador_extension_feeds_doccafe_us_visa_sponsor_field', function( $original_field_name ) {
    /**
     * This field name needs to match the key used to 
     * store the data in the job's post meta.
     */
    $new_field_name = 'customText1';

    return $new_field_name;
}, 10 );
