Feature Image
You can add an optional Feature Image to any job posting and the orientation of the photo will have a set structure in either a 16×9, 9×16, 4×3, 3×4 aspect ratio. Careers will then do it’s best to adjust the photo to fit.
Feature Images can be useful if your wanting to show the location of the job posting. For example, if a job posting is in Vancouver, you could display a Vancouver image.
