How does the application process work?
(A brief overview)
|
|
Immediately after you Post your job to the NicheNetwork,
candidates will be able to review it through the "Search Open Positions" feature.
Candidates will be able to send their resume to you directly if you have opted to
display your email address or other contact information. If you have opted not to
display your contact information, candidates will be able to submit their "Profile"
to you using the "Apply Online" option. This will send a copy of the candidate’s
profile or a web link to the email address you have included in the contact information
section of your posting and to your inbox on the NicheNetwork. You can review the
applications by email or login to your account and review them online.
When candidates apply to your posting, you will able to review their "Profile",
which contains a simple text version of their resume, their job match preferences,
their cover letter (if submitted) and skill information. When a profile arrives,
the NicheNetwork will match it against the criteria you entered when posting your
job. Candidates that match over 75% of your criteria will be designated an A-List
Candidate, all others will be designated B-List Candidates. A copy of their profile
will then be emailed to the address you include in the contact information section
of your posting. You can choose to be emailed a link the web site instead of the
profile if you wish. To do this, simply follow the "Edit Username and Password"
link in your toolbox and select "Web Link" instead of "Text/Html (Auto detect)".
You will be able to contact candidates that apply through the NicheNetwork via their
email or through their contact information.
