Thread: Omit Job Category from Job Loop

Omit Job Category from Job Loop

I created a category for the job_listing post type called hand-picked-jobs. I'm trying to exclude these jobs from the regular job loop. I've tried placing this in the loop:

if( in_category(' hand-picked-jobs' ) )
continue;

Though this isn't working. Is it because the in_category() function won't work for custom post types?
