Introduction to balanceTRAK

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

  • A Human Resource (HR) professional who manages or coordinates recruiting and/or hiring
  • A hiring manager or other collaborator who participates in, or makes decisions about, hiring
  • An HR data specialist who develops 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 key modules:

  • Requisitions (Job Openings or Postings)
  • Job Seekers (Applicants or Candidates)

In addition, Administrative Settings allow the Administrator to customize components in the applicant workflow for specific needs.
