Vacancy Fields Explained

Assigning a Recruitment Workflow

The importance of assigning a Recruitment workflow is that it steps the applicants through your defined recruitment process automatically, and also allows for correspondence to be automatically sent when an action or point is triggered.

Example: If we had setup our Recruitment Workflow to be a 3 step process. [1. Acknowledge, 2. Interview, 3. Offer]
Jim applies for the vacancy, Jim could receive an automated email Acknowledging that we had received his application. and when utilise the stepping tool and progress Jim's application to the Interview stage Jim may also receive an automated email advising Jim that he has been progressed to the next stage.
Alternatively, we could decline Jim's application and Jim may receive an automated email advising of an unsuccessful application.

1. When setting up a new vacancy we can select an existing recruitment workflow, and before publishing change the workflow to a new or modified workflow if we desire to.
2. To modify or create a new recruitment workflow users should select the Maintenance TAB and then select the Recruitment Workflow folder.

It is important to remember that if you choose to modify an existing recruitment workflow, and this workflow is in use by other Vacancies the workflow will be modified for all vacancies.

Assigning a Hiring manager

The Hiring manager is the person responsible for recruiting the candidate.
The Hiring manager drop down contains all managers and recruiters in the organisation.
If you do not see the person you are looking for in the Hiring manager drop down may have to make them a Manager or add them as a Recruiter.

Selecting a default Interview Panel

The Default Interview Panel automatically advises the selected people that an applicant has been invited for an Interview at a particular date and time.

The Description field and using a Word Document

The Subscribe-HR Software comes with some great tools for formatting the text.
If however you have your Recruitment Advertisement designed in Microsoft Word you can simply copy and paste from Microsoft Word into the Description text field.
Sometimes there are formatting issues and not everything looks the same. In this instance click on the MS Word icon in the tool bar above the text box.
This will provide you with a window to paste your Microsoft Word text into.

1. Copy MS Word Text.
2. Paste MS Word Text into Window.

Assigning Questions

Standard Questions need to be setup before you can assign questions to the Vacancy or to a Questionnaire.
Standard Questions are a pool of commonly asked questions that the HR Team or Managers may want to ask an applicant when applying for a vacancy.
Defining if the question is mandatory is performed in the Standard Questions Setup.
Once the pool of questions are established these questions can be re-used in any number of Vacancies or Questionnaires you may setup.

If you select Linkedin as your options, you will then be asked to authorise Subscribe-HR to access your Linkedin profile. From here the user can share the Job into your LinkedIn feed.

LinkedIn has turned their API's off for all e-Recruitment system, HR System providers). Facebook: There is a facility where you can select individual Facebook contacts to invite them to apply for a position through the Facebook Pop-up. This process is tracked automatically in Subscribe-HR

Once you have shared this Vacancy with your contacts, there is a Referrals sub-tab in the Vacancy Manage tool which will allow you to see how the referral was made and if the recipient has applied for the position. This is the automatic Tracking Feature that exists for Linkedin and Twitter. This same feature is available on the Subscribe-HR Recruitment Portal.
