# Important: New job form offers the job flags {#important-new-job-form-offers-the-job-flags}

## Description {#description}

The **New job form** offered neither of the two job flags
**Internationals welcome** and **Alumni recommends**, although
the job list and the job detail view render both. The form now offers them as
two optional checkboxes, labelled as in those views:
**International applicants welcome** and
**Recommended by alumni**.

A site that added a flag through the shipped checkbox partial
`Partials/Job/Forms/Checkbox.html` could not submit the form with that
checkbox unchecked: the checkbox submits an empty value, which Extbase converts
to `null`, and the job model only accepts an integer. The create action
now stores an unchecked flag as `0`.

The label unit `create.job.alumniRecommend.label` read
**Created by Alumni** (**Erstellt von Alumni**), which is not
what the flag means. It now reads **Recommended by alumni**
(**Von Alumni empfohlen**). The label unit
`create.job.internationalsWelcome.label` is new, in English and in German.

## Impact {#impact}

The form shows two more checkboxes. A job submitted through it stores
`internationals_welcome` and `alumni_recommend` as the visitor
checked them, where both were always `0` before.

A site package that copied `Partials/Job/Properties/Job.html` keeps its
own version and does not show the checkboxes. It adopts the two new fields in
its copy.

A site that overrides `create.job.alumniRecommend.label` keeps its own text.
