The Work Experience and Education History sections of a profile can be populated in the following ways:
- Candidates can use the Import from Resume option or apply using a profile from an external job board profile. In each case, records are parsed and populated in the corresponding fields automatically.
- Candidates can manually add records in the Education History and Employment History sections of their job application or saved profile.
- Recruiters can manually add records in the Education History and Employment History sections of the candidate's job application profile or candidate profile.
Reason for Leaving Field in Employment History
Before You Begin: The Reason For Leaving field isn’t included in the profile for candidates who apply by importing their resume.
If the candidate completed the Employment History section in a job application or their saved profile, the employment record might include the Reason For Leaving field, but only if an answer was submitted by the candidate.
Administrators can configure whether the Reason For Leaving field in a job application is mandatory.
Diploma Start Date and End Date Not Captured for Education Records
If the candidate completed the Education History section of the job application and selected the Diploma option in the Degree field for an education record, the Start Date and End Date fields aren't displayed for that record. This prevents Recruiting users from inferring the age of an applicant from the start date entered for a degree type of diploma (for example, high school).
Dates for high school are still captured in the profile should the candidate apply by resume or LinkedIn and include this information in their resume or LinkedIn profile. In these cases, the candidate voluntarily provides this information, and it isn’t requested by Dayforce.
