Improving Job templates feature

Improving Job templates feature

Hello, 

I wanted to create Job templates in order to save time when I create new job openings (which is happening on a daily basis or approximately).

I am focusing on sales/customer care jobs so I can safely say that I would need to create 20/25 templates to cover all the possibles roles I could work on. (That's an important amount of work to create all these templates but the time saved on a long shot would worth it)

That's what I thought. Because I realized I would have to :
- Or still type manually the client description (4/5 lines) for each new job opening ("my client is a software editor based in Paris blablala...")
- Or create each job template for each client that I have, if I want to avoid typing this client description at the beginning of the job opening (far too much work, 20/25 templates with 20/25 active clients, without the less frequent ones. The list would be very long)

That bugs me because the client description to introduce the company, when I post an ad, is specific for the client obviously but is always the same for all the ads. And typing it over and over again, or trying to find the text of the description in the system, copy/pasting it, is not the most efficient way.

To me, what would be far better/easier/faster and would make the job templates a useful feature, is to be able to insert Merge Fields.

By doing so, first of all, I would create a description of each of my client), in the client module (ie in the About field).  See screenshot 1
And then in the newly job template which had been created, I would insert this merge field ${Clients.About} at the beginning, and then the rest of the template will follow. See screenshot 2

And finally, when a new job opening would be created, here are the steps that I would imagine doing (and which fields would be automatically filled in). See screenshot 3

This way, we would save time as much as we can.

If you can provide a solution to match this request, that would be awesome.

Thanks

Olivier
