RDR (Redirect)
rdr is a query parameter that you can append to click urls that Talroo provides. Whenever the job is no longer being advertised, Talroo redirects the user to that URL instead of continuing through the application flow. You can take the job down on your side immediately instead of showing a dead listing until the feed refreshes.
How to use:
Set rdr to a URL on your site. Add your job id to that URL so when we send the user back, you know which listing to remove or update.
The entire rdr value must be URL-encoded. Replace yourJobId with your listing id (for example from <referencenumber> in the feed).

Decoded rdr for reference: https://www.example.com/job-unavailable/yourJobId
If you are an api publisher, and don't cache results, send the user back to your search page with a relevant keyword or an affiliate link
Some expired jobs can come back later when they have more budget to spend.
