Odoo keeps all job applicants organized with a preconfigured series of steps and stages that each applicant goes through. Each stage has a specific steps that should be performed. These range from scheduling a phone call, conducting an interview, or sending a job offer, for example. This process is referred to as the applicant flow.

When an applicant applies for a job position, an applicant card is automatically created in Odoo's Recruitment app for that specific job position. As the applicant progresses through the recruitment pipeline, the recruitment team moves their card from one stage to the next.

Stages can be configured so that an email is automatically sent out using a set, preconfigured template as soon as an applicant's card enters a stage. These automated emails are defined on each stage in the applicant flow.

The flow described in this document is Odoo's default configuration, but it can be customized to suit any recruitment process.

注釈

Stages apply to all job positions unless marked as job-specific Changes to stages (e.g., additions, deletions) affect all positions unless explicitly scoped.

Process

The Process section of the settings page specifies what the database can and cannot do during the recruitment process.

Send interview survey

Odoo is capable of having a survey sent to an applicant to gather more information about them. Surveys can be thought of as exams, or questionnaires, and can be customized in various ways to provide the recruitment team with valuable insights into the applicant

Enable the Send Interview Survey option to send surveys to applicants. Once enabled, an Interview Survey internal link appears. Click the Interview Survey link to navigate to a list of all created surveys.

This list includes all surveys that were created in the database, not only surveys used in the Recruitment app. If no surveys have been created, the surveys list displays a No Survey Found message, and presents options to create a survey from several preconfigured survey templates.

Salary package configurator

When sending an offer to an applicant, an expiration date can be set on the offer. Enter the number of days an offer is valid for in the days field. After the set amount of days has passed, if the applicant has not accepted the offer, the offer is no longer available.

Résumé display

When applicants submit an application, one of the default required fields is a résumé, or CV. All résumés are stored in the Documents application, and are accessible on the applicant's card.

A résumé has the option to appear on the applicant's form, which can be viewed by clicking on the applicant's card. The résumé appears on the right-side of the screen. If this is not enabled, the résumé is accessed via a link in the chatter, where it needs to be clicked to expand and view it, or downloaded.

Enable the Résumé Display option to show the résumé on the applicant's card by default, and in addition to the document link. When enabled, the résumé appears on the right side of the applicant's card.

注釈

For the résumé to appear on the right-side, the browser window must be in full-screen mode (where the browser spans the entire screen).

If the browser window is set to a size smaller than the entire width of the screen (not full-screen), then the résumé does not appear on the right-side. Instead, the résumé appears in the Files section of the chatter, below the applicant's card.

SMS pricing and FAQs

SMS配信

It is possible to send text messages to applicants directly through the Recruitment app. This feature requires credits to use. Click the Manage Service & Buy Credits internal link, and follow the steps to purchase credits.

Résumé digitization (OCR)

When an application is submitted using any of the available methods, such as an online application submission, emailing a resume to the job position alias, or creating an applicant record directly from the database, it is possible to have Odoo extract the applicant's name, phone number, and email address from the résumé and populate the applicant's form. To do so, enable the Résumé Digitization (OCR) option.

When enabled, additional options appear. Click on the corresponding radio button to select one of the following options:

  • Do not digitize: this option turns off résumé digitization.

  • Digitize on demand only: this option only digitizes resumes when requested. A Digitize document buttons appears on applicant cards. When clicked, the résumé is scanned and the applicant's card is updated.

  • Digitize automatically: this option automatically digitizes all résumés when they are submitted.

Beneath these options are two additional links. Click the Manage Service & Buy Credits internal link to purchase credits for résumé digitization. Click the View My Services internal link to view a list of all current services, and their remaining credit balances.

For more information on document digitization and IAP's, refer to the In-app purchase (IAP) documentation.

注釈

The Do not digitize option may appear redundant but serves a distinct purpose. Disabling the Résumé Digitization (OCR) option uninstalls the module, while Do not digitize keeps the module installed but inactive—allowing the user to re-enable digitization later without reinstalling the module.
