Finding and Shortlisting Candidates with Hiring

Hiring finds the best-matching profiles for a job role across your organization and your partner organizations. You can review each match, build a shortlist for the role, and contact partners about their candidates.

Before you begin

Hiring is part of the Talent Solutions menu, which appears only when your organization has turned on Partner Collaboration. See Setting Up and Managing Partner Connections.

Open Hiring

Go to Talent Solutions > Hiring Solutions. The first time, a short Getting started with Hiring guide walks you through the three steps: select a role, review and shortlist matches, and share with partners.

Step 1: Select a job role

1. On the Roles and Profiles tab, choose where the role comes from:
   1. My Organization Roles – open job roles in your organization.
   2. Partner Roles – job roles shared with you by partner organizations, labeled with the partner's code.
2. Use search or filters to find the role, and select it.
3. Select Find Matches. Select Reset to start over.

Step 2: Review matches

Match Results lists the matching profiles with their Source (Your Organization or Partner Shared), Match percentage, Availability, and Partner.

1. Select the filter icon to filter by Source, Availability, Match (90%+, 80%+, or 70%+), or Shortlisted only.
2. Select a profile to see its match analysis:
   • The overall match percentage for the role.
   • The profile's current role and availability.
   • Top role matches – the three roles in your organization that best match this profile.
   • For your own organization's profiles, select View Full Profile to open the complete profile.

Match Results

Partner-shared profiles

For profiles with the source Partner Shared, the person's current role is not shown, but you can see which partner shared them. To express interest:

• Notify Interest – select one or more profiles and choose Notify Interest from Select bulk action. The partner receives an email letting them know you are interested.
• Contact Partner – open a partner-shared profile and select Contact Partner to send the partner a custom message.

Step 3: Build a shortlist

• Select the Add profile to shortlist icon on a profile's row, or select Add to Shortlist on its match analysis.
• To add several at once, select the profiles and choose Add to Shortlist from Select bulk action.

Select the Shortlist tab to see all your shortlists. Each role's shortlist shows the role, department, level, the number of organization and partner-shared profiles, and when it was last updated. Select Open Shortlist to review it.
