What's new in October?

Introducing Eligibility Criteria for IJP

From Internal Job Posting of respective job, click on Add/Remove Eligibility Criteria. It allows you to define the minimum eligibility for a candidate to apply for the job. 


Upon having it defined here, the candidates (internal employees) view if they are eligible to apply for the job or not from IJP portal. Learn more.

HM Experience Survey

Similar to candidate experience survey, HM (Hiring Manager) Experience Survey is now available for fetching the experience feedback from the respective hiring manager. 
It is configurable from the Settings > Job Setup > HM Experience Survey. 




The survey report will be further available to download from the Overview > Download Hiring Manager Report.

Note: The survey form can be sent to HM only upon marking the candidate(s) as Hired (which means the total number of open positions are filled and the job is closed).

We’ve integrated with HackerRank!

HackerRank is an online assessment platform. Having this integration will help you streamline your online technical assessment process while working with Skillate.
