A build job is a basic execution unit in Jenkins. We can perform many actions using build jobs. We can execute commands, send notifications, configure Continuous Integration, and so on.

You will need to configure the tools based on the application, such as Maven, Java, Git, and so on.

1. Open the Jenkins dashboard.
2. Click on New Item.
3. Enter an item name.
4. Select a template Maven project.

5. Click on OK:

6. Go to the Source Code Management section and select Git.
7. Provide the Repository URL.
8. Provide Credentials.
9. In the Build section, the Root POM name will be already available.
10. Maven has its own set of goals and we can execute any one of those goals based on requirements. These steps are demonstrated in this next screenshot:

11. Click on Save.

When you go to the Build Job page and click on Build now, it will execute the build based on the configuration.
