Two actions related to vacancies can be completed in bulk, which is much quicker than individually editing each vacancy. The available bulk actions are:
- Change workflow status (e.g. from Active - Advert open to Active - Advert closed)
- Assign user(s) to role (e.g. when you want to change the Hiring manager on multiple vacancies in one go)
When you select the checkbox to the left of one or more vacancies or check the Select all checkbox at the top to select all vacancies, the bulk action menu will appear at the bottom of the page.
Using bulk actions
1) Assign user(s) to role
This option allows you to assign a system user to a particular role for multiple vacancies at the same time e.g. this may be useful if a Hiring Manager or Recruiter left the business and you want to update vacancies to be allocated to their replacement.
To assign a different user to a role on one or more vacancies:
* Search/Filter the vacancy list as required
* Select the vacancy(s) you wish to amend or check the select all checkbox if appropriate
* Pick the role you want to assign another existing system user to
* Select the person you want to assign the roles to
* Confirm that you want to proceed
2) Change vacancy status/workflow status – Change the status of one or more vacancies
To change the status of one or more vacancies:
* Search/Filter the vacancy list as required
* Select the vacancy(s) you wish to amend or check the select all checkbox if appropriate
* Select the system status/workflow status you wish to change the selected vacancies to
* Confirm you want to proceed
