Its records can be generated in to ways: by using Create Position button in the module or by generating it from a role by using Create Position button in role record. In second case, a new position will inherit related records, such as Expected Level of Competency. This can speed up your work.

There is only one name required in a position record - its Name. You can also provide Supervised Unit, Supervisor, Description. You can also set up a status. Choose from:

• Planned - if you want to start a recruitment for a position yet to be created in your company

• Active - for a position that already exists

• Inactive - for position that exists, but for example is unstaffed.

To complete creating a position and to have it fully useful in the system, you may want to create complementary records related to it, such as Salary Ranges, Career Paths, Terms of Employment or Responsibilities. Those can be added later, but it is recommended to create the records along with the position.

You may also easily create an appraisal of candidate/candidature by clicking Create Appraisal button. If the position’s competencies were determined properly, they will be converted into appraisal items helpful in assessment of a candidate. You may use this function i.e. while doing an interview with the candidate and easily sum up their candidature.

Note that you can create many candidatures for a candidate.

To distinguish if it is another recruitment for the candidate, there are two fields in candidature records: Original Recruitment and Current Recruitment.

You can scroll through all candidatures related to the recruitment and overview their status in Original Candidatures and Current Candidatures subpanels in given recruitment record.
