Werving & Selectie

Odoo keeps all job applicants organized with a pre-configured series of steps and stages that each applicant goes through. Each stage has a specific step(s) that should be performed. These range from scheduling a phone call, conducting an interview, or sending a job offer, for example. This process is referred to as the ‘applicant flow.’

When an applicant applies for a job position, an applicant card is automatically created in Odoo’s Recruitment app for that specific job position. As the applicant progresses through the recruitment pipeline, the recruitment team moves their card from one stage to the next.

Stages can be configured so that an email is automatically sent out using a set, pre-configured template as soon as an applicant’s card enters a stage. These automated emails are defined on each stage in the applicant flow.

The applicant flow explained in this document is the default flow in Odoo, and goes through the applicant flow when using the Recruitment application’s default configuration. The applicant flow is able to be modified to suit the specific recruitment flow for any business.

Notitie

The applicant flow with all its stages are universal and applies to all job positions, unless specified. A specific stage can be configured to be job-specific, meaning that specific stage is only visible for that specific job position. Otherwise, if a new stage is created, or an existing stage is modified, those changes are visible on all job positions.

Instellingen

Before creating a job position in Odoo, configure the necessary settings for the Recruitment app. To view and edit the settings, navigate to Recruitment app ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings. After any changes are made, click the Save button in the top-left corner to save all the changes.

Job posting

The Job Posting section of the Recruitment app settings has only one selection to make. If job positions are to be posted to the company’s website, enable the Online Posting option.

Notitie

The Online Posting is only available if the Website application is also installed.

Recruitment process

The Recruitment process section of the settings page specifies what the database can and cannot do during the recruitment process.

Verstuur sollicitatiegespreksenquête

Odoo kan een enquête naar een sollicitant sturen om meer informatie over hen te verzamelen. Enquêtes kunnen worden beschouwd als examens of vragenlijsten en kunnen op verschillende manieren worden aangepast om het wervingsteam waardevolle inzichten in de sollicitant te geven.

Schakel de optie Verstuur sollicitatiegespreksenquête in om enquêtes naar sollicitanten te sturen. Zodra ingeschakeld, verschijnt een Sollicitatiegespreksenquête interne link. Klik op de Sollicitatiegespreksenquête link om naar een lijst van alle gemaakte enquêtes te navigeren.

This list includes all surveys that were created in the database, not just surveys used in the Recruitment app. If no surveys have been created, the surveys list displays a No Survey Found message, and presents options to create a survey from several pre-configured survey templates.

For more detailed information about surveys, refer to the survey essentials documentation.

Notitie

Enabling the Send Interview Survey option will install the Surveys application once the settings are saved, if it is not installed already.

SMS verzenden

It is possible to send text messages to applicants directly through the Recruitment app. To do so, enable the Send SMS option. This option requires credits to use, which can be obtained by clicking the Buy credits internal link that emerges when the feature is enabled.

For more information, refer to the SMS pricing and FAQs documentation.

CV display

When applicants submit an application, one of the default required fields is a resumé, or CV. All resumés are stored in the Documents application, and are accessible on the applicant’s card.

A resumé has the option to appear on the applicant’s form, which can be viewed by clicking on the applicant’s card. The resumé appears on the right-side of the screen. If this is not enabled, the resumé is accessed via a link in the chatter, where it needs to be clicked to expand and view it, or downloaded.

Enable the CV Display option to show the resumé on the applicant’s card by default, and in addition to the document link. When enabled, the resumé appears on the right side of the applicant’s card.

Notitie

For the resumé to appear on the right-side, the browser window must be in full-screen mode (where the browser spans the entire screen).

If the browser window is set to a size smaller than the entire width of the screen (not full-screen), then the resumé does not appear on the right-side. Instead, the resumé appears in the Files section of the chatter, below the applicant’s card.

CV digitization (OCR)

When an application is submitted using any of the available methods, such as an online application submission, emailing a resume to the job position alias, or creating an applicant record directly from the database, it is possible to have Odoo extract the applicant’s name, phone number, and email address from the resumé and populate the applicant’s form. To do so, enable the CV Digitization (OCR) option.

Wanneer ingeschakeld, verschijnen er extra opties. Klik op het bijbehorende keuzerondje om een van de volgende opties te selecteren:

  • Do not digitize: this option turns off resumé digitization.

  • Digitize on demand only: this option only digitizes resumes when requested. A Digitize document buttons appears on applicant cards. When clicked, the resumé is scanned and the applicant’s card is updated.

  • Digitize automatically: this option automatically digitizes all resumés when they are submitted.

Beneath these options are two additional links. Click the Buy credits button to purchase credits for CV digitization. Click the View My Services to view a list of all current services, and their remaining credit balances.

Voor meer informatie over documentdigitalisering en IAP’s, raadpleeg de documentatie In-app aankoop (IAP).

Notitie

The Do not digitize option for CV digitization (OCR) at first may seem like a redundancy. It seems to be the same as disabling the CV digitization (OCR) option.

When the CV digitization (OCR) option is enabled, a module is installed so that resumés can be scanned. Disabling this option would uninstall the module.

If at some point, there is a desire to temporarily stop digitizing resumés, the Do not digitize option is selected. The reason this option is available is so that the module is not uninstalled, allowing for digitization to be enabled in the future by selecting one of the other two options.

Salarisconfigurator

Bij het versturen van een aanbod aan een sollicitant kan een vervaldatum op het aanbod worden ingesteld. Voer het aantal dagen dat een aanbod geldig is in het veld dagen in. Nadat het ingestelde aantal dagen is verstreken, is het aanbod niet meer beschikbaar als de sollicitant het aanbod niet heeft geaccepteerd.

Elke fase heeft een gekleurde balk onder de naam van de fase, die statusinformatie geeft voor de sollicitanten in die specifieke fase. De statuskleuren zijn:

  • Groen: de sollicitant is klaar om naar de volgende fase te gaan.

  • Rood: de sollicitant kan niet naar de volgende fase.

  • Grijs: de sollicitant is nog bezig in de huidige fase en is nog niet klaar voor de volgende fase en ook niet geblokkeerd.

Stel de status voor elke kaart handmatig in. Klik op het kleine rondje linksonder op de sollicitatiekaart om de status in te stellen. Er verschijnt een pop-upvenster met statussen.

Als er momenteel sollicitanten in de te verwijderen fase staan, verschijnt er een foutmelding bij het verwijderen van de fase. De records die momenteel in de fase staan, moeten worden verwijderd, gearchiveerd of naar een andere fase worden verplaatst voordat de fase kan worden verwijderd.

E-mailsjablonen

To communicate with the applicant, Odoo has several pre-configured email templates that can be used. The pre-configured email templates and when to use them are as follows:

  • Werving: bevestiging sollicitant: dit sjabloon wordt gebruikt om de sollicitant te laten weten dat hun sollicitatie is ontvangen. Deze e-mail wordt automatisch verzonden zodra de sollicitant zich in de Nieuw-fase bevindt.

  • Werving: interesse: dit sjabloon wordt gebruikt om de sollicitant te laten weten dat hun sollicitatie de aandacht van de recruiter heeft getrokken en dat ze op de shortlist staan voor een telefonisch gesprek of een interview.

  • Recruitment: Schedule Interview: this template is used to let the applicant know that they have passed the Initial Qualification stage and they will be contacted to set up an interview with the recruiter. This email is automatically sent out once the applicant is in the Initial Qualification stage.

  • Werving: niet langer geïnteresseerd: dit sjabloon wordt gebruikt wanneer een sollicitant aangeeft niet langer geïnteresseerd te zijn in de functie, en bedankt hen voor hun tijd en overweging.

  • Werving: afwijzen: dit sjabloon wordt gebruikt wanneer een sollicitant niet langer in overweging wordt genomen voor de functie.
