Answer 1

I don't know the schema of your company, but if you want to add PostedJobs to the companies, you should define an array field in it.
router.post('/:name' , isLoggedIn , function(req , res , next) {
var JobName = req.body.JobName;
var JobType = req.body.JobType;
var JobLocation = req.body.JobLocation;
var Salary = req.body.Salary;
//push this job to that specific comapny
// create the postedJob object
var postedJob = {JobName : JobName, JobType : JobType, JobLocation : JobLocation, JobSalay:Salary};
// find the company in DB and add the postedJob to its array of postedJobs
var name = req.params.name;
Company.findOne({Name : name}).then(function(company) {
//modify and save the object received via callback
company.postedJobs.push(postedJob);
company.save();
});
});
