Introduction to balanceTRAK

From posting a job opening (on a branded Website page and major career sites) to ultimately hiring the most-qualified candidate, balanceTRAK supports the recruiting process. As a software user engaged in this process, you may belong to one of the following audiences:

  • Human Resource (HR) professionals who manage or coordinate recruiting and/or hiring
  • Hiring managers or other collaborators who participate in, or make decisions about, hiring
  • Data specialists who develop compliance or voluntary reporting on HR activities

Implementation

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

Modules

In organizing job openings, storing applicant information, and providing reporting on related activity, balanceTRAK relies on three key modules, accordingly:

  • Requisitions (Job openings, or postings)
  • Job Seekers (Applicants, or job candidates)
  • Reports (Requisition and Job Seeker statistics)

If you are an Administrator, the following modules allow you to review or update components in the balanceTRAK workflow:

  • Settings (accessed from the side navigation menu)
  • System Tools (accessed from the page header)
