Summary
Talenture RS supports Job Approvals in both its products, Talenture RS Placement as well as Talenture RS Internal Hiring.
This article explains important aspects of the approval feature, usage scenarios and how to maximize its benefits.
1. Job Approvals in Placement Process
In a placement scenario, if recruiters are allowed to create jobs, then they are often asked to seek approvals from their managers. Also, if the process involves RPO Clients, then approval may be sought from the HR Manager in the client organization.
Approval is generally sought to ensure that recruitment team works on requirements meeting organizational criteria such specific position levels, billing value, clients, industry domains etc.
When approval is sought, the approval request and reply are important.
- Request: This contains information related to all elements of the position, client, billing value, urgency etc. so that a call can be taken on whether it is to be worked on.
Apart from this the approval is also based on the requirements for the position such as qualifications, experience level etc. being clearly specified. - Reply: This is the response from the person performing approval. It contains guidelines, rules etc. to be followed for approved positions and in case of rejection it would contain supporting information as to reasons for this with additional information for re-submittal, modifications etc.
In case a position is approved it can be assigned to the recruitment team to be worked upon. If it is rejected then based on the reasons for rejection, it may be still be re-submitted for approval after suitable modifications or not further worked upon.
2. Implementation in Talenture RS
Talenture RS enables implementing a full approval process for both placement and internal hiring scenarios via the following features:
- System option for enabling mandatory Approval process for Jobs
- Permission to users to act as Approvers
- System option to control whether a Job gets directly assigned to a recruiter after approval is done or it goes to the user who sent the position for approval.
a. Approval Workflow in Talenture RS
The approval workflow in Talenture RS is as follows:
- When creating a Job, use the Approval tab for putting in the details of the approval request.
- Assign to the concerned person(s) using the ‘Approver’ field in the Roles tab.
- The Approver gets a notification via email and in Talenture RS for the Job to be approved.
- The Approver can use the Actionables->Job Views->Approvals By Me view to see the Job details and perform approval action. He/she can use the Approval tab for putting in the response details.
- Requester then gets a notification when approval has been performed and can view the approved Job in his/her Workbench in the Actionables->Job Views->Approvals By Others view and take further action.
- If the Job is approved then the user can assign the Job to the recruitment team for processing. In case it has been rejected then the user can use the ‘Redesign’ option to make suggested modifications and re-submit the Job for approval.
b. Views for Tracking Approvals
Talenture RS provides dedicated views in the Workbench for easily tracking & managing the approval process. These are available under the Actionables ->Job Views data folder in the Workbench for viewing Jobs pending approval, on which Approval is to be performed etc.
