# How can I backfill the jobs from external sources?

## What is backfilling?

Backfilling refers to the process of automatically populating a job board with job listings from external sources. This can help ensure that the job board remains filled with relevant job postings even if the job board itself has not received new postings directly from employers.

## What is Job Scrapping?

Job scraping in job board software refers to the process of extracting job listings from various websites, such as company career pages, other job boards, and employment websites, and then posting these listings on a job board. This is typically done using automated scripts or tools that systematically browse web pages to collect job-related data.
