Publish vacancies on StepStone

Objective

This guide helps you to publish a vacancy on StepStone.

If an applicant applies via StepStone's 'Quick Apply' with their CV, CV data will directly be sent to Textkernel for CV parsing. This data is transferred back to StepStone as XML-file, which is then directly transferred into Hubdrive. Therefore, you don't need to start the CV parsing process separately in this case.
