Recruitment Settings

Before creating and using the Recruitment module, there are some settings you may wish to consider that can affect the way your recruitment process works. To makes these settings, go to:

Administration > Company > Settings > Recruitment > Settings

Candidate Display

  • Default candidate module view - This gives you the option the view the candidates' page as a card view or a table view. See below how each setting looks:
    • Card view:
    • Table view:
  • Use traffic lights indicator on candidate - Setting this to 'Yes' will populate a traffic light function on the candidate page. Each "light" can be manually changed to portray the progress of the candidates' application. 

Manager Requisitions

  • Allow managers to raise requisitions - Selecting 'Yes' will allow managers to request requisitions which will be then routed for approval to a recruiter.
  • Email hiring manager when application received - If you choose 'Yes', managers will be copied on the e-mail for a new application.
  • Allow managers to add and edit candidates - If you choose 'Yes', a manager will be able to add or edit candidate as well as requisitions. Candidates can be edited for any requisition by the manager. Managers will not be able to delete a candidate, convert a candidate to an employee or reject a candidate.

  • Post jobs to indeed - When this option is set to 'Yes', all jobs will be posted on Indeed. Your jobs will only be posted if you provide an email address (this is not shown on the Indeed listing). This can either be on the job requisition itself or, if that is blank, we will use your email notification address above (if there is more than one we will use the first one). If no email address is provided, the job will be rejected by Indeed as this is a prerequisite of posting on their job board.
