Configurable job application setup overview

The first step in the application process is the creation of tasks. Tasks are then assigned to a process. Each task can be configured by type and eligibility group. There are task types that serve specific purposes:

• Form
• Questions
• Content
• Instructions
• URL
• Attachments

Eligibility groups can be used to limit candidate access to specific tasks. By assigning a task to an eligibility group, administrators make the task available only to the candidates who are members of the group. Eligibility groups and tasks can be used together to tailor each task in the job application process to the needs of the organization. For example, an organization that wanted to collect multiple employment history records from external candidates but requires only one record from internal candidates can make it happen with tasks and eligibility groups:

• One task would be created and assigned to an eligibility group that contains external candidates. That task would require three employment history records.
• A second task would be created and assigned to an eligibility group that contains internal candidates. That task would require one employment history record.
