Sources and Events

A source is a medium or event through which a candidate has heard about a job.

Sources may be as diverse as Internet job boards, job fairs, magazines, specialized trade publications, newspapers, professional associations, mailing lists, recruiting agencies, etc. Events are used to track down which event, banner, or campaign are attracting the most candidates to career sections. An event can be a specific advertisement in a trade magazine, a recruiting event on a university campus (job fair), or a special recruiting event at an organization.

In the Recruiting Center, sources are displayed in the requisition Posting and Sourcing tab. When users create a requisition, only the sources that have the same Organization-Location-Job Field structure as the requisition are displayed in the Sources list. Users can modify the list of sources associated to the requisition. If event tracking was enabled, users can access the list of events related to a source. Once in the Events list, users can add, modify and delete events in the requisition.
