The recruitment lifecycle: requisition to hire
A requisition is approved, one or more job postings are created from it, candidates apply and the chosen ones are hired. The requisition becomes "Filled" by itself once the number of hires reaches the requested headcount.
From need to hire
- Requisition – HR records a headcount need (position, department, location, headcount, employment type, reason). A new requisition is Pending.
- Approval – the requisition is approved, rejected, or withdrawn with Cancel.
- Job posting – on an approved requisition, Create posting makes a posting linked to it. One requisition can have several postings. You can also start a posting without a requisition on the Job postings tab.
- Applicants – candidates apply on the public application page, or you add them manually. They then move through New → Screening → Interview → Offer → Hired.
- Hire – Hire → employee turns the candidate into a team member.
Automatic completion and partial fills
A requisition becomes Filled by itself once the hires across its postings reach the requested headcount; the posting then becomes Filled too. Until then the requisition stays Approved with an "X / Y filled" badge.
Need five people but found only three? The requisition stays open at 3/5 – create another posting from it for the remaining seats.
