TalentCubes

Revision as of 05:36, 19 July 2021

Overview

Talent Cubes can be used in both Recruitment and in Performance.

Recruitment Talent Cubes can be created to allow you to capture Applicant details automatically from your Subscribe-HR Jobs Board (Recruitment Portal) and then group them in specific Talent Cubes. Applicants will be added to a Talent Cube (if their attributes match the definitions of the Talent Cube) when they apply for a particular Job or if they send an Expression of Interest through the Subscribe-HR Jobs Board.

Performance Talent Cubes are used to group Employees based on specific attribute definitions or they can be manually added to a Talent Cube.

Talent Cubes are set up/created based around definitions. If there is a match between the Applicant/Employee's attributes and the definition, they are then put into the Talent Cube. There are two standard Recruitment Talent Cubes: "Job Alerts" and "Applicants." If you wish to set up any other Talent Cubes (including an individual definition e.g. Expression of Interest), follow the steps below.

Creating Talent Cubes

This is the starting point for the creation of a Talent Cube.

1. After logging into Subscribe-HR, select the Recruitment Module for Applicants or Performance Module for Employees.
2. Select the More Tab, select Talent Cubes.
3. Select the Add new record button.
4. Enter the Talent Cube Name you would like to create.
5. Enter a Description if required.
6. Select the Save button.

Setting the Definition of the Talent Cube

The definition is the way you set the fields of interest to capture Applicants or Employees (or assign them to) Talent Cubes based on their matching attributes. Once the definition is created, any Applicants that match it will automatically be assigned to that Talent Cube.

1. From the listed Talent Cubes, Select the Talent Cube of interest.
2. Select Definition Tab.
3. Change the Query name if required. This should already be populated from the Talent Cube name.
4. Select the Definition Drop Down this has the below set of options.
5. Select the Drop Down value in the Comparison Selector if required.
6. Enter any search values into the input field.
7. Select Add to have extra definition elements. These can be added with AND/OR logic.
8. Note: You can also search here for Canvas answers.

There are two types of "Definitions" in Talent Cubes - Basic and Advanced.

1. Basic - basic definitions allows Users to perform searches against both System Fields and Document held in the System using specified Keywords.
2. <n>Advanced</b> - advanced definitions allow Users to perform searches against multiple objects in the System, including:

• Select Records Type: this option searches all data stored within tables in the System (e.g. Applicant Skills).
• Select fields: once you've specified which tables you want to search, you can then select which fields within those tables you want to search. You can add as many "Rules" as you like. A Rule is simply a command to search for/query a specific word in a specific field, or a specific parameter related to a specific field.

You will define different Definitions depending on whether you're creating or Talent Cubes for Recruitment or Performance Management purposes.

Talent Cubes Job Alerts

Outlined below is how Users are recorded when they create a Job Alert:

• If a User/Applicant submits a Job Alert, they are recorded in the "Job Alerts" Talent Cube. Please see Job Alerts section of the e-Recruitment set-up document which can be obtained from your account manager.
• A User can submit/sign-up to a Job Alert without being an Applicant.
• An Applicant can sign-up for a "Job Alert" and their record will be saved in both the Applicant "Talent Cube" and a "Job Alert" Talent Cube.
  
• Talent Cube history is also stored against the Applicant Record under "Talent Cube History" (the "Path").
• The "Path" in the Applicant Sub-Folder, records the very first contact that the User/Applicant has with the system. For example, if they are not yet an Applicant, and they sign-up for a Job Alert, this will record them in the "Job Alert" Sub-Folder.
• If they then become an Applicant e.g. they apply for an active Vacancy, the very first contact they had with Subscribe-HR (sign-up for Job Alert) will be recorded as the first entry in their "Path."
• The second entry in their "Path" will be the record of their first Vacancy Application.
• The purpose of the path is to track the entire contact history of each User/Applicant so you can see what type of interactions successfully hired Applicants have with the e-Recruitment with your organisation, all of which is recorded in the System so that you can see the path/process in total.

Talent Cube View History to Applicant Path

The View History link will allow you to access any contact History that you have had with the applicant either whilst they are applying for a Vacancy or through Talent Cubes. As mentioned above, there purpose of the "Path" is to track the entire contact history of each User/Applicant so you can see what type of interactions successfully hired Applicants have with the e-Recruitment with your organisation, all of which is recorded in the System so that you can see the path/process in total. This information can include:

• Email correspondence.
• Interviews.
• Talent Cubes they're assigned to.
• Documents.

Rating and Flagging can be used to Highlight Talent that you may or may not want to deal with in the future. The Flags are flexible in terms of how they are used by you. E.g. Red - No Need for Future Contact (Serial Applicant). Green - Great Prospect.
