Jobs are components that run in background and perform scheduled tasks, such as sending notification emails every day.
In eXo Platform, jobs are managed by Quartz Scheduler. This framework allows to schedule jobs using simple patterns (daily, weekly) and Cron expressions.
The following tables are the jobs and their default configuration:
| Name | Description | Schedule |

| changeStateJobToUnpublished (Content) | Scans collaboration:/sites for awaiting content and unpublishes them. | Every 2 minutes |
| NotificationWeeklyJob | Sends weekly notification. | 11 am, every Sunday |
