Pre-Employment Checklist Setup

Use this option to configure a checklist for Human Resources staff members to complete before an applicant can be hired. For example, your pre-employment checklist might include verifying prior employment, completing reference checks, and conducting testing, among other tasks.

A different checklist can be set up for each Position Type defined in Payroll's Position Types table.

You can access a checklist for an applicant using the Pre-Employment Checklist link in the Application (Links) section of the Applicant Details page. For information, refer to Application Section - Pre-Employment Checklist.
