Enter the Opportunity Name.
Select the Start Date and End Date.

Select the Timezone.
You can change all of these settings later, including the timezone.
Click Save.
The opportunity appears on the My Opportunity page.
To customize your opportunity, click it.
The Recruitment page opens.
To change the Opportunity Name, Start Date, End Date, or Timezone, click Page Settings. View Change the Public Page Settings.
