New Features

Candidate Custom Fields

Every organization has their own needs when it comes to tracking Candidate Information. Some organizations want to add the Specialization field of the candidate, some want to add a Specific Certification field to the candidate record and so on. With this release, you can add customized fields on the Candidate Profile that are searchable and easily included to the Application Form with Mandatory validation when required. This adds better flexibility for you to design the perfect candidate form.

Candidate Custom Fields This tool is only available for the Super User license. You can find this in the configuration tools section in the settings menu.

These custom fields appear consistently in:

1. Candidate Profile

2. Advanced Search

3. Configurable application form

4. Candidate Dashboard --> Coming up! Will be available Post May release.

5. Data Export --> Coming up! Will be available Post May release.


Access the configuration tool from Settings and add fields relevant to you. Now you can add Custom Fields on the Candidate Profile through Configuration Tool > Candidate Custom Fields. If you want to record specific candidate fields, you can add it here. For example: Certifications, Specializations, Military Veteran, etc.






 

All additions to the custom fields will be visible in the Candidate Profile and will be searchable through the Advanced Search function.







When searching multiple custom fields from Advanced Search, it is important to note the logic of the search:




Custom fields can be added into Application Forms through the Configurable Forms menu (Super User functionality). There is also the option to have these fields Mandatory. By adding the Custom Fields to the Application Form, you can make the Candidate to fill this detail for you which would make searching for your candidates a lot easier with this filter!




 

Changes

Post Job Tab in Jobs

We have updated the Post job workflow in HiringBoss as well. We will be removing the Sources tab which was previously in the top menu of the Job Profile Page.


Sources are now available in the "Post Job" tab which is placed under the "Workflows and Permissions" tab which used to listed under the Sources section


The final step in the job creation process is now "Permissions".



When you go to the "Post Job" tab you should be able to see 6 categories of available job posting avenues:


To share your job on your career site - simply click on the share action in the available actions column. Once the action is successful, you'll see a green notification on the top right hand corner of the screen.The job timeline still takes precedence whether the job will be made externally or not.


 If the job has been shared already, there is an option to un-share the job from the career site.  It will appear in the Available Action Column.
