The Hiring Team is a critical configuration within a job post that defines the roles and responsibilities of individuals involved in the recruitment process for that specific opening. Assigning the right members to the Hiring Team ensures a smooth workflow from job posting to onboarding. 

For details on enabling role-based access, please refer to Page No. 47.

Recruiter

  • If Job Visibility is set to Organization in the General Settings, all employees with the Recruiter flag enabled in their Team Summary will appear in the dropdown list.

  • If Job Visibility is set to Custom Group, only those employees who belong to the specified group and have the Recruiter flag enabled will be shown in the dropdown.

  • If the Recruiter flag is enabled, but the user is not an Organization Unit Admin and Centralized Recruitment is not enabled, the employee will appear in the dropdown only for job posts they are directly associated with.
