    Use Requisitions to Support the Hiring Process

    Accessible from the side navigation menu, the Requisitions module functions as the "one-stop" resource for tracking job postings, screening applicants, and selecting new hires. In the left-hand column, the Requisitions list identifies each Requisition by key identifiers, while the Requisition Detail for a selected Requisition (as indicated by highlight) will house all key information and tasks for each job posting.

    Understanding Requisition Components

    How Requisitions are Numbered

    balanceTRAK is configured to automatically number Requisitions, based on your organization's unique numbering system, which may be comprised of digits to signify year, month, department, job code, and the like.

    Your Implementation may allow numbers to be added by the Requisition creator. If so, a required field for Requisition Number will display in the Add Requisition menu (which is described at xxxxxx). The Number cannot be changed after the Requisition is created.

    Cross-reference for Administrators: In determining a Requisition numbering system, external job board requirements that may limit the number of digits should be considered. See: Client Settings /Requisitions.
