Info About Job Requisition Fields

While you create job requisitions, consider the following info regarding specific fields.

Warning: Profile descriptive flexfields (DFF) aren't visible in Recruiting. The DFF context will be populated on the profile items as soon as the candidate is converted into a pending worker or employee.

Field	Description
Requisition Number	You can use these characters for the job requisition number: alphanumeric characters period underscore dash space
Hiring Team	When you define the Hiring Team, the selectors for the Hiring Manager, Recruiter, and Collaborator fields display all the assignments for a person, not only the primary assignment. The name, email, business title, and person number are displayed on the list. The business title identifies the assignment.
Add Collaborator Type	You can add collaborator types to define hiring team roles more precisely and to better manage communications with members of the job requisition's and offer's Hiring Teams. When you add a user as a collaborator on a job requisition or job offer (regardless of the collaborator type), the user has the required data security to view this requisition or offer.
Collaborator	When you define the Hiring Team, if you don't add yourself as the hiring manager or recruiter, you're automatically added as a collaborator. This ensures that the user creating the requisition has access to the requisition once it's created.
Requisition Structure	The field values in the Requisition Structure section are coming from the job requisition template. Values are copied only if there are no values in the requisition. For example, the primary location set on the job requisition template isn't copied in the job requisition if a value is defined in the requisition.
Organization	If you're a recruiter, you need to enter a value in the Organization field. If you're a hiring manager you need not do so. When you display the Organization list of values, the name of the organization and its type are displayed for each entry. Values displayed in the Organization, Legal Employer, and Department selectors are controlled by the organization security profile of your data roles. What's the purpose of the Organization field compared to the Department field? The Organization field has important functional implications which the Department field doesn't provide. The value selected in the Organization field can be used to drive the possible values to be selected for other requisition fields (candidate selection process and prescreening questions for example). This Organization value can also be used to drive data security, meaning it can be used to define which requisitions a user is allowed to see. The hierarchical nature of the Organization field (which is a value within the Organization tree) allows taking into account where the selected Organization is placed within the tree. However, the Department field in the Offer section is a simple selection which will be defaulted in an offer created for this requisition. It doesn't impact anything else.
Business Unit, Department, Legal Employer, and Primary Work Location	Values for these fields are coming from the work assignment of the Hiring Manager only if no value was defaulted from the requisition template, position, job, or the requisition template associated to the position or job. Also, the Business Unit field is required only when you create a job requisition based on a position.
Display in Organization Chart	When you select this option, it indicates if the requisition is visible in the My Team work area and the organization chart available in the Directory work area. Note that the responsive UI version of the Directory work area doesn't display requisitions in the organization chart; only older versions of the Directory are impacted by the value of this field.
Posting Description	This is where you define the posting description, short description, qualifications, and responsibilities of the job posted on the internal carer site, external career sites, or both. The short description appears on the career site job search results page. That page displays the name, location, and brief description of the job. The Short Description field can contain a maximum of 1000 characters. The description appears when a candidate clicks on a job to view the complete description of the job requisition. You can specify a different description for the internal career site and the external career site. Note that the internal short description is currently not used on the internal career site. The description is only displayed within the requisition.
Skills	Skills you add to a job requisition are visible to external and internal candidates when they view the details of the requisition on a career site and to recruiting agents when they view the job details in their agency portal. When additional skill attribute values are entered on requisitions, only the skill name is displayed to candidates and recruiting agents viewing the requisition details. Other attributes aren't displayed. Values in the Skills section might be defaulted depending on how you create the job requisition. Skills aren't multilingual, it's not possible to translate the name of a skill in multiple languages. For this reason, it's recommended to not use skills in multilingual job requisitions because the skill name will always be displayed to candidates exactly as entered, regardless of the language in which candidates are viewing the requisition.
Attachments	You can upload attachments to the requisition to provide additional information to users viewing the requisition, typically members of the hiring team. These attachments aren't visible to candidates and can't be made visible for them.
Workplace	You can define the workplace for a job: On-site Remote Hybrid
Hot Jobs	Promote certain job requisitions on external career sites by displaying a "Hot Job" tag in search results lists, and on job details pages. You can change the tag's visibility and styling for custom search results pages. You can also use it as a criterion in the custom job list component. Note: This tag is only visible on external career sites using the Minimal template. To make the Hot Jobs field available, you need to first enable it in Transaction Design Studio for the Recruiting - Create Job Requisition, and the Recruiting - View and Edit Job Requisition actions. Once enabled, the field displays in the Configuration section.
Configuration	This is where you can select configuration options for the job requisition: Candidate selection process: You select the candidate selection process used for the requisition. External application flow: You select the application flow used for the requisition. Allow candidates to apply when not posted: You can invite candidates to apply on a job requisition that's currently not visible to other candidates. This could be the case if your organization wants to fill a high-level job or even a replacement and they want to keep it confidential. Automatically open requisition for sourcing: You can specify if the requisition is automatically open for sourcing once it's approved, and post it on career sites. Automatically unpost requisition: You can specify if the requisition will be automatically unposted from the internal career site, the external career sites, or both. Automatically fill requisition: When you enable this option, the status of the job requisition is automatically changed to Filled once the number of hired candidates matches the number of openings on the job requisition.
Job	The Job field has special logic attached to it. The field can be displayed in different sections of the job requisition depending on how the requisition was created (this depends on the value selected in the Use field while creating the requisition). The Job field is also not always editable (this also depends on how the requisition was created). If you want to set a value for the Job field, it's recommended to create the job requisition using a job. For details, see Create a Job Requisition Based on a Job.
