Edit / Adjust JD
Once a job description has been created, it can be edited (walked back through the full JD workflow to update its content) or adjusted (a lighter-weight update to an associated task, such as its date), depending on what needs to change.
| Action | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Edit | Re-opens the full JD editing workflow — job details, JD editor, questions, skill metrics — for content changes. |
| Adjust | Updates a specific task tied to the JD (e.g. rescheduling a date) without going through the full workflow. |

note
A dialog appears asking for a comment before sending. You can cancel this to return to the form without submitting, if you're not ready yet.
Adjust
To adjust a task associated with a job description:
