Actions Available Based on Employment Scenarios

When you create a job offer, you select the appropriate human resource (HR) action. The list of actions is narrowed down, showing only the limited set of actions that are appropriate for the candidate based on the info available in the job offer and the candidate's existing work relationship.

Then, when the candidate moves into the final HR phase, the candidate is put into the hands of the HR specialists. As soon as the candidate job application enters the HR phase, it becomes visible on the HR specialist's list on their Job Offers page, from the Manage Job Offers quick action. It's the HR specialist responsibility to perform that preselected HR action to create the appropriate records for the candidate to become a worker in the promised job.

This table describes six employment scenarios and the available actions that the HR specialists can perform for each scenario.
