ACE Candidate Alert
The ACE candidate alert allows Recruiting Center users to set a threshold to identify the ideal candidates and to send an email to specific recipients to inform them that ACE candidates were found.
The ACE candidate alert allows the system to identify the candidates who achieve or exceed the ACE alert threshold for a job offer. It identifies top candidates based on their responses to the competencies and questions in the Prescreening section of the requisition file. The ACE candidate alert is based on Required and Asset criteria. Candidates are divided into three groups to help users determine which candidate files to review first:
-
ACE candidates: Consider these candidates first because they meet all Required criteria and some Asset criteria.
-
Minimally qualified candidates: Consider these candidates after the ACE candidates because they meet all Required criteria but not Asset criteria.
-
Other candidates: Do not consider these candidates because they do not meet any Required criteria.
When setting the ACE candidate alert, the options presented in the following table are provided:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| A candidate meeting all the required criteria achieves a result of at least x% (0/0) | This option is used to set the minimum result. Select a percentage from the list. At the right of the percentage, the system displays the number of points the candidate must have to match the selected percentage. When changing the percentage, the value to the right is recalculated. Candidates who meet all the required criteria and the result value will be considered ACE candidates. Do not use the percentage weighting option if you do not use the Weight criterion in the Prescreening section of the requisition file. If you utilized weighting on some of the questions you could, if you wish, incorporate into the ACE candidate alert setting as well. For a simple approach, you can start by using 75% weight result and then eventually align that % with your own approach and utilization of weighting that works best for you. |
| A candidate meeting all the required criteria has at least x assets out of y | This option is used to set the minimum number of assets. Select a value from the list. Candidates who meet all the required criteria and the minimum number of assets will be considered ACE candidates. |
| Identify a candidate as an ACE when either condition is met | This option is used to identify ACE candidates using the result or asset condition. |
| Identify a candidate as an ACE when both conditions are met | This option is used to identify ACE candidates using the result and asset conditions. |
When setting the ACE candidate alert, Recruiting Center users have the option to send an email to notify specific recipients that an ACE candidate was found. To be an ACE Candidate Alert recipient, a user must meet all these criteria:
The user must be active.
The user must have access the Recruiting Center or eShare Response Center.
The user has access to the requisition type of the requisition.
The user belongs to the user group of the requisition.
Recruiting Center users can be set up as an ACE Candidate Alert recipient even if they have limited access to information on the candidate file.
All ACE Candidate Alert recipients receive the same candidate file, regardless of permissions to view candidate information in the system. When an ACE Candidate Alert is set, the recipient receives an email with an attached PDF file that contains data from the candidate file. Sections of the candidate file that contain no data do not appear. All PDF files display information as follows regardless of the user's permissions:
Fields with the General or Restricted security level are displayed. Fields with the Confidential security level are not displayed.
Labels in the candidate file are displayed in the Recipient's language if there is only one recipient; otherwise labels are displayed in the requisition's base language.
Values entered in the candidate file are displayed in the job submission language.
