Easily Identify Internal Applicants
iRecruit’s internal application process has been updated. This update simplifies the posting of an internal job, to make sure that only internal applicants have access, and also to easily identify internal applications.
How to Add Video to iConnect Onboarding
A recent blog post from SHRM shares 10 Virtual Onboarding Tips For Remote Employees. With so many people now working from home, and being hired for work at home positions, onboarding procedures have had to adjust to this new normal. SHRM recommends creating checklists, making sure the new hire has a company mentor, and also using Video to introduce your company’s procedures.
How to Add your Zoom Meeting Information to iRecruit to Send to Applicants
With many of our customers still working remotely from home, and doing online interviews, we thought it would be helpful to know how to add your Zoom* (or other meeting info) into iRecruit to quickly share with applicants when needed.
