Resolution

  • When creating a job requisition, one of the options is to Browse "Families & Roles".
  • In this way all families and roles will be displayed. However if these families and roles are too much, or maybe are used for other purposes (such as in Performance Manager forms), the customer may want to restrict the selection to a subset.
  • When a role is selected from the Browse “Families & Roles” the job requisition will be created with the related competencies already there (competencies are used for rating candidates in the Interview Central)
  • Tags are used to filter and narrow down the roles that can be selected.
  • How is it possible to import these?
  1. First of all, a new picklist must be created. This is an example: 
  • ^picklistId,OptionId,minValue,maxValue,value,status,external_code,parentOptionId,en_US,pt_BR,zh_CN,en_GB,zh_TW,fr_CA,es_ES,de_
       DE,it_IT,fr_FR,da_DK,en_DEBUG,th_TH,nl_NL
  • jobRoleTags,,1.0,1.0,1.0,ACTIVE,,-1,"tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1","tag1"
  • jobRoleTags,,1.0,1.0,1.0,ACTIVE,,-1,"tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2","tag2"
  • jobRoleTags,,1.0,1.0,1.0,ACTIVE,,-1,"tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3","tag3"
  • jobRoleTags,,1.0,1.0,1.0,ACTIVE,,-1,"tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4","tag4"
  • jobRoleTags,,1.0,1.0,1.0,ACTIVE,,-1,"tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5","tag5"

 

  1. Then the picklist must be selected in Admin Tools > Picklists Mappings Set Up. Also, you can add a label for the meaning of this filter:

  1. Next step is to link the roles with the first filter picklist1:
    1. For example, we want to add for this filter the role “IT Project Manager” in family “IT” where there are 3 competencies linked:

     2.JPG

 

    1. To do that, we need to import a special CSV file, were the jobfamily and the jobrole MUST match the family and role already imported:

       4.JPG

    1. This file must be imported in Admin Tools > Import Job Role Tags;
    1. The result is that when we select the label tag1 for example:

​​    5.jpg

 

    1. Only the role “IT Project Manager” will appear:

​​    6.jpg

 

    1. When selected this, the 3 competencies will appear:

​​    7.jpg

  • Use cases:
    • Families and roles are too much
    • Not all Families and roles are used for recruiting (such as in Performance Manager forms), the customer may want to restrict the selection to a subset
