Collect Candidate Date of Birth and National Identifier

You can ask external candidates for their date of birth and national identifier while they apply for a job or once they've applied to a job.

The national identifier presented to external candidates depends on the location (country) of the job requisition. Candidates can select a type of identifier from the list of identifiers defined for a country and provide a value for that identifier. The national identifier and date of birth provided by a candidate are reusable. Once a candidate has provided that info, it's pre-populated in new job applications. When a candidate provides a national identifier and date of birth, the recruiter or hiring manager with the privilege View External Candidate Sensitive Information (IRC_VIEW_EXTERNAL_CANDIDATE_SENSITIVE_INFORMATION) can see the info in the job application's Sensitive Info tab. As soon as the candidate becomes an employee, the info is no longer visible.

To collect the date of birth and national identifier of candidates, you need to add the Sensitive Personal Information block in an application flow.

  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to:
    • Offering: Recruiting and Candidate Experience
    • Functional Area: Candidate Experience
    • Task: Job Application Flow Configuration
  2. On the Job Application Flows page, click Create.
  3. In the Application Flow Type field, select Apply or Request Information.
  4. Configure the flow as any other flow.
  5. Create a version of the flow and add the Sensitive Personal Information block.
