Assigned Recruiter

When you create a job requisition, you have the option to assign a recruiter.

Notes:

  • You can only assign one recruiter to each job requisition.
  • The list of available recruiters is determined by administrators in Recruiting Setup > Recruiters.
  • Recruiters might or might not be employees in your organization. That is, they might not have an employee record associated with their user account in Dayforce. If the recruiter is a non-employee user in Dayforce, they are identified by their username only in the job requisition to which they are assigned.
  • Depending on configuration, you might need to first select a location, and then you'll only see the recruiters for the location you selected. This configuration depends on whether the Restrict Recruiter Visibility Based on Location Recruiting client property is enabled by your administrator.
Reasons for assigning a recruiter
Use Description
Enforcing recruiter security for job requisitions and candidates Depending on role feature access, some users can only see requisitions that they are designated as the recruiter for. This feature is called recruiter security. See Job Requisition Visibility.
Defining notification recipients The assigned recruiter can be configured to receive email and Message Center notifications, such as for changes in candidate status, or when new candidates apply to the requisition.
Accessing background screening orders Recruiters can initiate background screening orders through the Recruiting module.
