Selecting the Account button from the page header to set up automatic Notifications from balanceTRAK and determine other options. To begin, make sure the balanceTRAK tab is active on the Manage Account Settings screen. If any changes are made to the settings below, click [Save].

Set Preferences for Automatic Notifications

On the Notifications menu, Selecting the check off the appropriate settings:
  • A requisition is closing. (Sent at 7:00 am.)
  • Someone applies for a job. If this option is checked, choose one of the following:
    • On the day the job seeker applies at 10:00 pm.
    • Immediately after the job seeker applies.
  • Someone completes a Background Check form.
  • Notify me during each step of the approval process when I am a participating user.

Important Caution: When determining whether to implement notification options, consider the number of job applications your organization receives. For a small organization or a recruiter who must address each application, notification by individual job seeker may be appropriate. For a large organization, a daily message with a list of all new job seekers may be preferred.
