What are the types of job requisition templates?

You can create 3 types of job requisition templates to facilitate the creation of requisitions by recruiting users.

  • Standalone: Template used by recruiters when they create a job requisition based directly on a template.
  • Job: Template used by recruiters when they create a job requisition based on a job.
    • The template is associated to a job on the Job details page in Workforce Structures. Job-based requisition templates don't include fields for which info is available from the job such as Job Family, Job Function, Regular or Temporary, Full Time or Part Time. Using job-based templates is a two-step process. You first create a job requisition of type Job. You then go to the Job Details work area where you can select the requisition template you just created (Workforce Structures >Manage Job task).
  • Position: Template used by recruiters when they create a job requisition based on a position.
    • The template is associated to a position on the Position details page. Position-based requisition templates don't include fields for which information is available from the job of the position such as Job Family, Job Function, Regular or Temporary, Full Time or Part Time. They also don't include fields for which info is available from the position such as Number of Openings, Department, Work Location. Using position-based templates is a two-step process. You first create a job requisition of type Position. You then go to the Position Details work area where you can select the requisition template you just created (Workforce Structures > Manage Positions task).
