Optional Edit Applicant Declared Source Feature

You might be interested in the option to edit the applicant declared source on an applicant record.

If you find that applicants don't always answer the "how did you hear about this position" question accurately when they complete their employment application (i.e. you learn they were mistaken later during the interview process), you might be interested in the option to edit the applicant declared source on an applicant record. This optional feature can be turned on for your portal by ExactHire Client Success (just request it via support@exacthire.com).

Once the feature has been enabled, then you may choose which HireCentric users in your organization should have access to this feature. It is available to be turned on for all user levels and can be done in the Users dashboard by clicking on the magnifying glass icon next to the desired user. Then, click the check box next to "Can Edit Applicant Source" at the bottom of the page and select "Update."

Please note that Admin-level users will be able to toggle this feature availability on/off for their own login, themselves.

Once it is on for certain users in your site, a pencil icon will appear next to the Source area of the applicant record when those users are logged in. Click the pencil, then use the drop-down box to select a new source (and/or write in a specific "other" source) and lastly, hit the "Update" button.
