Assigning Regions, Recruiting Categories, and Recruiters on a Mass Basis
This section provides an overview and discusses how to:
Use general criteria to select the prospect group.
Use academic criteria to select the prospect group.
Use program and plan criteria to select the prospect group.
Use academic interests criteria to select the prospect group.
Assign regions, recruiters, and recruiting categories to the prospect group.
Use the Assign Recruiters component to assign regions, recruiting categories, and recruiters to a group of prospects at the same time. You can select the group of prospects based on selection criteria, including:
Biographical and demographic data, such as gender, ethnicity, and citizenship.
Address data, such as state and postal codes, or a range of postal codes.
Geographic region, based on last school attended, prospect's home address, or the region tree.
Academic institution, last school attended, academic career, program, plan, and campus.
Recruiting status and recruiting center.
Other items, such as referral source, academic interest, housing interest, and financial aid interest.
You can assign regions, recruiting categories, and recruiters to prospects based on one or more of the fields on these pages. For example, you can define only one field, such as Country, and select all prospects in the U.S. Conversely, you can use multiple selection criteria fields to capture a specific prospect group. For example, you can select all Native American females whose home address is within postal code 10990, with a certain academic career and academic program, and who have an academic interest in law with a priority ranked between 1 and 5. Use additional selection criteria fields to narrow the group of prospects for assignment to a region, recruiting category, and recruiter.
