Custom Subdomains via Proxy
By default, your company’s job board is accessible atarminterview.my/companies/your-company-slug. However, you can use your own custom subdomain (e.g., careers.yourcompany.com) to provide a more professional, branded experience for your candidates.
Benefits of Custom Subdomains
- Brand Trust: Candidates feel more secure applying on a domain they recognize.
- Unified Experience: Seamlessly integrate your job board into your main website navigation.
- Improved SEO: Leverage your main domain’s authority for your recruitment landing pages.
Setup Instructions
To use your own subdomain, you need to set up a reverse proxy or point your DNS to our servers.1. DNS Configuration (CNAME)
The simplest way to set up a custom subdomain is via a CNAME record. This allows us to handle SSL and routing automatically.| Type | Host | Value |
|---|---|---|
| CNAME | careers | arminterview.my |
[!NOTE] After adding the CNAME record, it may take up to 24 hours for DNS changes to propagate globally.
2. Reverse Proxy Configuration
If you prefer to maintain full control over the traffic or are integrating into an existing application, you can use a reverse proxy.Example: Nginx
Use this configuration if you are running your own web server.Example: Next.js Rewrites
If you have an existing Next.js application, you can proxy the traffic using the built-in rewrite engine.Troubleshooting & FAQ

Ensure that your Custom Slug (URL) in the Dashboard match exactly with the

Can I use a root domain instead of a subdomain?
We recommend using a subdomain (like
careers.) as root domains (A records) require static IP addresses which may change. CNAMEs are much more reliable.[!IMPORTANT] Always verify that your proxy passes theHostheader correctly asarminterview.my, otherwise our routing engine will not be able to identify the incoming request.
