Candidate Portals sections

1/ PROFILE

Under the Profile tab, you can configure the fields, default candidate sources and slides.

a. FIELDS:

Decide if you’d like to hide or show fields in the Personal Information of the My Profile tab simply by using the toggles.

You can preview the changes on the Candidate’s profile as you choose the fields on the left-hand side.

Note: There are some default fields without toggles. These fields will always be visible on the Candidate Portal.

Set Fields as Suggested or Mandatory

  • Suggested fields are fields that Candidates are suggested to fill out. These are nice-to-have information that you want to collect from candidates.

  • Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk and Candidates must fill out these fields in order to save the section.

Note: Suggested and Mandatory fields are linked to the “Remaining Task(s) for My Profile” Bar, as a visual cue to remind your candidates to update all the required fields

b. CANDIDATE SOURCES

This dropdown bar allows you to choose the Sources that appear in the “How did you hear about us?” in the Job Application form.

The Sources can be configured inside your Vincere Core account - check out this article for more information.

If leaving this field blank, the default selection will be Portals.

c. SLIDES

This is where you can set the sliding speed of the slider in the Remaining Task(s) for My Profile section and the messages (contents) you want Candidates to see in the slider.

When you think you’re all set, click on the PUBLISH button to make the changes live.

2/ EXPERTISE

Under the Expertise tab, you can configure the fields for salary information and slides which will be applied to the Expertise tab on the Candidate Profile.

a. FIELDS

Decide if you’d like to hide or show the Industry, Functions, Salary fields simply by using the toggles. You can also set it as Suggested or Mandatory to fill in.

Note: when Salary Type is toggled OFF, the Current salary and Desired salary fields will also be toggled OFF. These fields are linked together. Candidates will need to select Salary Type: Monthly or Annual for them to add Current Salary or Desired Salary.

These fields are synced back to the fields in Vincere accordingly.

You can also choose what fields to be displayed for the Work Experience and Education Fields

Under the Onboarding tab, you can configure the fields and slides which will be applied to the Onboarding tab on the Candidate Profile.

The onboarding tab is linked to the onboarding fields within Vincere - check out this article for more information.

Enable this if you want to allow your candidates to have the option to remove their documents once uploaded.

Note: documents deleted by the Candidates will also be deleted from the Candidate's Vincere profile under the Files tab.

b. Fields

In this section, you can choose other onboarding information (especially for Compliance) you want to receive from Candidates.

To do this, you first need to configure the onboarding fields within Vincere - check out this article for more information.

Apply the Country to choose the onboarding fields you'd like to display to your Candidates.

Click the tab to see the fields under it. Toggle ON the fields you’d like to collect from the Candidates.

You can also decide to make the fields Suggested or Required just like in the My Profile tab.

In the Onboarding tab, you can also drag and drop the fields to rearrange the order of the fields displayed on the Candidate Portal.
