New feature, the calendar module

Serena is excited to introduce its latest feature: the calendar module! With this new addition, you can effortlessly create a weekly schedule and integrate it into a job posting or embed it as a snippet on a content page. This feature not only makes it easier to visually showcase a typical workweek but also provides visitors with an intuitive understanding of the role’s daily activities.

What is the calender module?

We’ve all seen it before: a job posting with a lengthy text explaining what a typical workweek looks like. Some career websites opt to include an image instead, as visuals tend to be more engaging than text alone. However, images come with limitations—especially on mobile devices. They scale automatically, which can make a structured weekly schedule too small and difficult to read.

To address this, Serena has developed the calendar module. Rather than relying on static images, this feature presents the schedule as an interactive element, significantly enhancing both readability and usability

Why a module instead of an image?

Our calendar module offers several advantages over a static image:

• No designer needed – Easily create a well-structured weekly calendar yourself, without the need for a graphic designer.
• Effortless customization – Need to make changes to the schedule? No problem! Update the calendar instantly without relying on external tools.
• Optimized for all devices – On desktop, all days are displayed side by side, while on mobile, users can scroll through the days horizontally. This ensures a seamless experience on any screen size.
• Interactive elements – Add clickable sections so users can access additional details about specific activities throughout the week.

Do I have to manually add the calendar to each job posting?

No, of course not. Manually updating multiple systems every time you post a job would be inefficient. Just like adding images, videos, or an application process, you can configure the calendar module strategically. For instance, you can link a specific calendar to a particular job role or industry. This ensures that the right weekly schedule is automatically added to every relevant job posting, regardless of the ATS you use.
