Create a new user in Recruiting

Learn how to set up new users in Paycor Recruiting.

This article is for administrators and Staffing users.

 

Overview

Most users you create are Standard Users. Standard Users are free and unlimited. 

Standard Users must be assigned a role on a position to access news feeds or change a candidate's status. They can be assigned to these roles:

  • Hiring Manager: Key managers of the job.
  • Executive: Supervisors who want oversight over hiring but do not want to manage the job or receive regular notifications about jobs and candidates.
  • Team Member: Employees who have insight into the job but are not allowed to see budget information.

Pro Tip

  • Standard Users do not see much information until they are assigned to a job. You might want to select Do Not Send when prompted to send an invitation email each time you create a User. 
  • Instead, add that person to a job, put some candidates in for them to review, and then send an Invitation Email to New Users later with their username and password.

Create a New User

  1. In Recruiting, select Admin Users.
  2. Select Create a User.
  3. Complete all required fields, including first name, last name, and email address.
  4. Complete any other optional user settings. For example, you can add the user to a department to make it easier to assign them to jobs.
  5. When the prompt opens asking if you want to send the user an invitation email to set up a password and log in, choose Send Now or Do Not Send. 
    1. You can always go back to the User record and send them the invite later.
    2. Pro tip: Make sure to use Paycor Single Sign On (SSO)
  6. When finished, select Save.
