Introduction to balanceTRAK

balanceTRAK supports the personnel recruiting process, from posting a job opening on a branded Web site page and major career sites to hiring a qualified candidate. As a balanceTRAK user, you may belong to one of the following user audiences:

  • A Human Resource professionalsprofessional who managemanages or coordinatecoordinates recruiting and/or hiring
  • HiringA managershiring manager or other collaboratorscollaborator who participateparticipates in, or makemakes decisions about, hiring
  • An HR data specialistsspecialist who developdevelops compliance or voluntary reporting

During an initial Implementation, the applicant workflow in balanceTRAK is determined, based on a collaboration between your organization and Berkshire's Product Support team. Typically, your organization will have a designated balanceTRAK Administrator. At that time, permissions for your access to, and work in, balanceTRAK functions will have been determined.

Because balanceTRAK organizes both job openings and applicant information, the software relies on two modules, accordingly:

  • Requisitions (Job openings or postings)
  • Job Seekers (Applicants or candidates)

In support of the above efforts, Reports can be run to track statistics.

If you are an Administrator, Administrative Settings and System Tools allow you to customize components in the applicant workflow for specific needs
