Overview

iCIMS Applicant Tracking (formerly Recruit) allows users to track a company's job openings as well as the candidates who apply to the company’s jobs. The fields presented when creating and managing a Job profile are configurable, so your experience may differ from the screenshots shown below. A red asterisk (*) beside a field indicates that it is required.

The image below shows an example of the job description data that may be entered during the job creation process, typically after initial job details are entered. (The job creation process is discussed in the Creating a New Job or Requisition article.)

Once a job has been created, information that has been entered during the job creation process may be reviewed on the appropriate tab(s) of the Job profile, as shown below.

Tips:

  • To edit Job Description information after a job has been created, click the Edit button on the Description tab.
  • Each field within the Job Description tab includes a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) editor, which supports a number of formatting options and features for users. Users may add images, videos, and other media and links within these fields. Note that the formatting controls available may vary slightly among browsers. Users may paste text from Microsoft Word directly into the field (without having to click a Paste From Word button).
  • Modifying the font family, size, and color of text in these fields is strongly discouraged, as this formatting will overwrite global font settings for your career site, which may create an undesirable appearance.

Job Description Tab

Overview: The Overview free-text field typically includes pertinent high-level information about the job and may contain additional relevant information about the team, department, and/or organization.
Responsibilities: The Responsibilities free-text field typically includes specific responsibilities associated with this job opening.
Qualifications: The Qualifications free-text field typically includes the minimum and desired qualifications applicants should have in order to be considered for this role.
