Point your own domain at your career page

Every account gets youragency.jugglehire.com. Here is how to serve the same page from careers.yourdomain.com instead.

Choose your approach

Two options. A subdomain like careers.yourdomain.com is the common choice and takes about ten minutes. Serving from a path such as yourdomain.com/careers requires a reverse proxy on your side and is worth it mainly for SEO consolidation.

Add the DNS record

In your DNS provider, create a CNAME pointing your chosen subdomain at our edge. Leave the proxy or CDN setting off until verification succeeds — a proxied record hides the value we need to read.

DNSTTL: automatic or 300
Type   CNAME
Name   careers
Value  edge.jugglehire.com
TTL    300

Verify and issue SSL

  1. Enter the domain in JuggleHireSettings → Career page → Custom domain. Type the full hostname, without https:// and without a trailing slash.
  2. Wait for propagationUsually two to ten minutes, occasionally up to an hour. The status badge polls automatically — you do not need to keep refreshing.
  3. SSL issues itselfOnce the CNAME resolves, a certificate is requested and installed automatically, then renewed before expiry. Nothing to configure.
  4. Re-enable your proxyIf you use Cloudflare, you can turn the orange cloud back on after the certificate is live.

Troubleshooting

SymptomFix
Stuck on PendingThe CNAME is proxied or has not propagated. Turn the proxy off and check with dig or nslookup.
Certificate errorAlmost always a CAA record blocking issuance. Allow letsencrypt.org in your CAA records.
Shows the wrong orgThe hostname is claimed by another organisation. Remove it there first, then re-add it here.
Old page cachedPurge your CDN cache. We set short cache headers, but proxies in front of us may not respect them.
