What Are Additional Privacy Settings and Native Security in Recruiting?

Describes native security settings in Recruiting and additional privacy settings you can configure.

Recruiting has some native, built-in security to help protect information for Hiring Managers. By default:

  • Regular users cannot see job details or candidate information unless they are assigned to that job.
  • Regular users do not see employees who are applying for jobs inside the company unless they’re assigned to that job.

If you want to limit what regular users can do even more, there are some extra options:

Make a Job Confidential: 

Turn on the Candidate Hiding feature (not recommended):

  • Recruiting hides all the candidates unless the Standard User is assigned to the same job.
  • Because this causes substantial changes in Recruiting, as described here, we do not recommend this:
    • The Other Jobs Tab on the home page is disabled. Your users are informed that they lack permission to view this information.
    • The Candidate Breakdown page for Other jobs is empty. Your users are informed that they lack permission to view this information.
    • Standard Users are prohibited from viewing the All Data analytics report.
  • These changes prevent Standard Users from:
    • Assigning candidates to other jobs (or other candidates to their jobs).
    • If a new Standard User is created and they are not assigned to any jobs, all content is blocked when they log in.
