What's New in symplr Talent Sourcing

Updated

• Imports. Tags can now be removed from existing candidates in bulk during imports. A new Remove tags for existing candidates checkbox in the New Import window removes any current tags for candidates that already exist in the system. Tags included in the import are added to profiles. [622988]

• Date Range filters. Custom date ranges can now be used when searching using date range filters (Last Viewed, Last Noted, Last Emailed, Last Called, and Last Applied), allowing for more flexibility within these filters. [627939]

• Source. The Source page now automatically loads all candidates when opening this page, eliminating the need to click Search first before all candidate results are displayed. [775345]

• Reports. The Views, Starts, and Complete fields on the Source to Job report are now counted by unique requisition and not broken down by job titles, preventing confusion over source accuracy. [781450]

Resolved

• Selected Candidates. Users were briefly presented with an incorrect list of menu items when clicking the Selected Candidates option on the Source page. [615229]

• Import Status indicator. Text displayed when hovering over a completed import was not wrapping appropriately. [756985]

Updated

• Profile imports. The candidate import process has been enhanced to allow for the importer to determine whether or not they want to override the existing primary profile on a candidate record as a part of the import process, saving time and manual processing of profile updates. [578169]

• Internal filters. New Internal Only filters are now available on career sites, allowing internal candidates to filter postings for internal applicants only. Additionally, internal-only career sites can now be configured if desired. Please email talentsupport@symplr.com for configuration assistance. [732228]

• User imports. For customers with ATS integrations, users previously needed to be created in the ATS in order for them to be set up in Talent Sourcing, even if they didn't need access to the ATS. Users can now be created directly in symplr Talent Sourcing by checking the Ignore in Import checkbox when creating a new user. This prevents the user from being inactivated every time the user sync runs from the ATS to Talent Sourcing. [637394]

Resolved

• Job Title formatting. When searching for candidates related to Job Title search criteria, the work history results in an applicant's profile were not bolded. [767201]

• Search Filter Enhancements. We've added several new enhancements to Filters throughout symplr Talent Sourcing, streamlining how your system data is displayed and evaluated. These particular improvements were all suggested by you, our users, so thank you (and keep sharing those ideas)! (Ref# 341100)

  These enhancements include:

  • Two new options have been added to the Filters section of the various Talent areas:

    • Last Noted allows you to search for candidates based on when a note was last logged.

    • Last Called allows you to search for candidates based on when a Phone Call note was last logged.

      Note: Historical records for both of these filters will be brought in at a later date.

  • The Date Profile Added filter now allows greater flexibility when selecting values. In addition to the original Slider option, new Date Range, After Date, and Before Date filters can now be used.

  • The Last Viewed filter now respects all areas within the Talent section. Previously, it only associated with your most recently-viewed area of Talent.

  • For filters that reference any "Last" actions (such as Last Emailed, Last Viewed, Last Applied, etc.), the default Any date range value has been renamed to -Select-, since you need to select a value from this drop down to use these filters.

• Desktop Tools. The Desktop Tools download page previously included a link to download the plugin for Internet Explorer. Since Internet Explorer is no longer supported by Microsoft, this link has been removed, and the download link has been changed to only reference Chrome and Edge. (Ref# 563218)

• Expanded Drip Campaign Scheduler. To allow greater flexibility with drip campaigns, you can now expand the total schedule of a drip campaign to six months from the current date (expanded from the previous limit of 90 days). When scheduling drip campaign emails, the calendar picker also prevents users from scheduling an email beyond the six-month cutoff date. (Ref# 563653, Case 01358868)

New Feature

The Review Center is now included in symplr Talent Sourcing, granting the ability to streamline and enhance the recruitment process. This addition provides a dedicated avenue for your sourcers to collaborate with hiring managers, making it faster and easier to identify the most qualified candidates possible.

With the ability to send candidates for review, managers are brought into the hiring process sooner, while making it easier to share key insights into each candidate's knowledge, skills, and abilities. What this all boils down to is, finding (and hiring) the best talent is a quicker, smoother, and more informed process for everyone involved.

• Message Management. Several fields relating to the Message Management area have been renamed to provide greater clarity and alignment with the values they display. (Ref# 494854)

  • On the main Message Management page, Email & SMS titles have been renamed to Mass Emails & Mass SMS.

  • Within the Mass Emails & Mass SMS pages, the titles have been renamed to read Mass Email Management and Mass SMS Management.

• Candidate Profiles. The Last Applied date field on a candidate's profile now links to all of the candidate's profiles as opposed to just the primary profile, allowing sourcers to get a clearer picture of whether a candidate has previously applied to their organization, regardless of whether that application is associated with their primary profile. (Ref# 499791)

Once everything is set, activate your campaign and let the system do the work.
