Where can I find all possible fields with suggested answers (e.g. Employee Type- Full-Time/Part-Time)?There is a CVS Upload file, but for already selected fields, not all are available. Many thanks for advice!

Recruit: Candidate Notifications

Hello,Through a test candidate profile, we noted that as soon as a candidate was moved from "open" to the next stage, "reviewing" in our case, they were notified that they had been "shortlisted" for the role. This is completely misleading and we'd really like to avoid such situations when we start the official screening process. We only want candidates to be notified when they have advanced to the "recruiter interview" stage onwards. Is there a way to stop this automated email at the "reviewing" stage? Appreciate you help.

What is the difference between Teams, Departments/Sub Departments, and Business Units?

Is there a hierarchy or relationship between them? Do I need to use them all? It’s very confusing to have all these options as part of the set-up…. Please advise on the best way to use these.

Notifying candidates using canned responses

Canned responses are typically the predefined responses for some of the commonly asked questions or scenarios. Instead of typing the same email over and over again, you can simply send these pre-typed emails instead.For instance, every time you schedule a Face to Face interview, you receive candidate emails asking about the interview panel and the office location. Instead of wasting your time typing the same email to every candidate, you can simply create a canned response.- Head to Settings and move to Canned responses > 'Add New'- Create the response for the entire team, or for yourself. - Type in your desired content. With Dynamic Placeholders, you do not have to manually edit the canned responses with details like candidate name, Office location, interviewer’s name and so on. - Hit Save, and you are good to go!

Tips for recruiters and workers on remote jobs – Rodolphe DutelBlog

The crowded cities and long commutes are all screaming for remote jobs.For employers, it’s also true that ‘the best’ person for the job doesn’t always live within a 30-kilometer radius. Then, there are workspace constraints, companies that want to give their employees a quality life by allowing them the comfort of their homes, and firms that want to hire the best talent there is, to simply stay ahead in the business game. The remote workers in the US are expected to account for three-quarters of the workforce by 2020, according to a survey by Zinc.In this conversation, Rodolphe talks about the best practices in recruiting for remote jobs and working on remote jobs. Rodolphe shares insights from building and working with the Remotive.io community, and his years of remote working.

Keeping my employees in the know with email notifications

Freshteam provides a list of email notifications that you can use to notify candidates, recruiters, hiring managers and employees on completing a particular task. For instance, whenever you create a new job posting, it will automatically email to the employees you’d like to notify. Similarly, you can notify the recruiters, hiring manager and the panel member whenever you assign a job to a recruiter or when you change the job status. You can do the same for a bunch of tasks related to candidates, interviews, profile updates and so on.

Auto-rejecting candidates who don’t fulfil a criteria

It takes time to manually peruse every application. You have to ensure that the candidate has the desired skills and experience, learn if they are willing to travel for work, relocation and so on. What if we tell you there's a way to automate it, such that you accept only those applications that fulfil your criteria and auto-reject those that don't.Let's take an instance wherein you want to auto-reject candidates who are unwilling to work night shifts. Here's how you set it up in Freshteam using Autopilot Workflows. Go to the Job details for which you'd like to auto-reject candidates. Click Hiring workflow. Select Manage Autopilot Workflows. In the page that follows, select Reject based on certain criteria.Provide a name for the automation.Name the automation as ‘Auto-reject candidate unwilling to work night shifts’- Select the event as ‘When a candidate gets added to the job’- Select the criteria.
