My logo is too small to see clearly on the landing page. What can I do?
When you upload a logo to the new Landing Page builder, it is automatically resized to 40px to fit within the header of the landing page.
If your logo has a blank border, try trimming the whitespace around the edge, then uploading the adjusted image.
If your organization has several versions of your logo, try uploading a different version to see how it looks.
The instructions say the minimum height for the hero image is 800px. What is the minimum width?
There is no minimum width required for the hero image. The image will be resized and adjusted on the browser page based on the height of the image and the size of the screen the candidate is using.
If the candidate's screen size is reduced, the end of the image will start to be cut off. For this reason, we recommend not including images that contain text.
I'm trying to add a video to the landing page but it's too big. How can I reduce the size of the video?
If your video file is too large, this guide steps through some of the ways you can reduce the file size.
There are also many tools available online to edit video files. Please use your own due diligence before using any online tools to ensure it is right for your organization.
Why is the Video option on the Landing Page Builder locked?
The ability to upload a hero video on the New Landing Page is exclusive to Talent Success Suite customers. If you would like to explore the benefits of our Talent Success Suite, please contact your Customer Success representative.
What happens if my body text exceeds the character limit?
Our body text editor has a hard limit of 750 characters. To make the best use of this limit, try leveraging the hyperlink feature to add links to external information. Instead of displaying full-length URLs and emails, consider condensing them into a hyperlink that says “click here” or “email us”.
Which images work best on the Landing Page?
Try to follow these guidelines when choosing a hero image for your Landing Page.
- Choose images which contain little to no text.
- Choose images where the focal point of the image is in the center of the image, if there is a focal point.
- If you have any critical content (e.g., a company logo), ensure that it is placed in the middle of the image and not in the corners.
- Choose images that aren’t extremely wide or tall, as they will be more severely cropped when uploaded.
Why are my candidates being asked to accept your terms and privacy policy on the landing page?
Candidates are usually asked to accept Criteria's Terms of Use and Privacy Policy on the Personal Details page. However, if your Criteria account is set to No PII in your Company Preferences, the Personal Details page will not be presented to the candidate. Instead, these tick boxes will be shown on the landing page, so candidates will have 1 less page to click through to reach their evaluation tasks.
