Use Staffing Agents to Refer Candidates for a Requisition

You can use the services of staffing agents who will refer candidates to a job.

  1. Go to the Requisitions menu.
  2. Open the requisition.
  3. Click the Sourcing tab.
  4. Expand the Staffing Agents section.
  5. Click the Add Agents button. The Staffing Agents Selector displays a list of staffing agents for posting the requisition. The list of agents available is dependent on the organization, location, and job field selected for the requisition.
  6. You can remove or add staffing agents as necessary.
  7. Click Add / update agents. The staffing agents are added to the requisition and you're back on the Sourcing tab.
  8. Set the start and end date of the posting.
  9. Click Save and apply.
An email is sent to staffing agents inviting them to refer candidates for the job. The staffing agent signs in to the agency portal, locates the requisition, and refers candidates. Candidates being referred receive an email informing them that an agent referred them for a job. Candidates are invited to review the profile information submitted by the agent. When you search candidates in the database, you can easily identify candidates referred by an agent with the Candidate referred by an agent option.
