Schema.org support for job postings

We’re happy to announce that schema.org, working together with the United States Office of Science and Technology Policy, has added support for marking up job postings on the web.

Leveraging this markup, the US Veterans administration has created a search widget that is accessible across a growing number of federal websites including nrd.gov and whitehouse.gov, to find job listings from veteran-committed employers.

We feel privileged to have played a role in enabling this. More details can be found in the US CTO, Aneesh Chopra’s post on the White House Blog.
