Job Refresh

This API call allows you to refresh HotJobs postings in real time. Only public jobs, or jobs with status "posted", can be refreshed. When a job is refreshed, the job refresh date is updated. A job can be refreshed once every seven days. A valid session token and unique Job ID like the HotJobs ID or user-specified Job ID or IO/PO Number will be required for refreshing a job ad. The HotJobs Job ID and other job related details (see the response XML below) will be returned after successful job refresh.
