A **Position** is the job title of an **[Opening](https://intercom.help/Fountain_Hire/en/articles/9899510-create-a-job-opening)** that holds the job description and Application Form that the applicants see and submit an application for.

# Add Position

5. Hit the blue **Save** button at the bottom of the page, and you're all set.

**Additional Information:**

- **Job Description:** You can add a description about the job, list the requirements, add an image, or consider leaving it blank if you are [embedding the Application Form](https://intercom.help/Fountain_Hire/en/articles/9899519-embed-the-fountain-application-form-on-website) on your website.

- The Position-level job description serves as the default for all Openings using this Position.
