SharePoint: Employee Application System
Steps to Review Resumes
You will receive an email invitation to the Human Resources SharePoint site similar to the example below:
Access the site using the link provided. You should leverage your existing SharePoint account when accessing this site.
The email invitation expires after 90 days. Please use the link to sign in before the 90 days has lapsed. Once logged in, it's recommended that you Follow the site for easier access from your Microsoft Office account by clicking the Follow option in the upper right-hand corner of the window:
Once you have gained access to the Human Resources External SharePoint site, you will only see your respective job postings in the navigation sidebar. Click on the posting you wish to review.
A list of applicants will be displayed. The default view presents the most recent applications at the top of the list (indicated by three blue lines). Click on each Title/Code (Analyst, Strategy...) to access the list/drop down menu:
After clicking on each Title/Code, the following will appear:
Scroll down to the bottom of the list to review the applicant's resume and cover letter which will be found in the Attachments section:
- Click on the file link to review the resume and cover letter
- After reviewing a resume, if you recommend an interview (either an initial phone screen or interview), click on the Heart icon. This field will count the number of likes by each interview team member so consensus can be gained on which candidates should be interviewed
- Once team consensus is gained on which candidates should be interviewed, either the hiring manager or their designee, will update the Interview field by selecting Yes or No
- Once it's been determined which candidates to phone screen or interview, please work with your admin to schedule those
- The hiring manager or their designee will add relevant notes in the Notes field by clicking on the Pencil icon & then the Save button to save. Review the following guidelines below before adding notes:
- Do NOT note any personal information, only job-related information
- If you are unsure, a good rule-of-thumb is to ask yourself this: Does this relate directly to the job and the candidate’s ability to perform a specific task associated with that job?
- Acceptable notes include:
- Doesn’t meet minimum qualifications (ONLY used if HR ISN’T initially screening resumes)
- Rejected due to skills/experience
- Candidate withdrew & reason
- Offer
- Hired
- Declined offer & reason
- Do NOT note any personal information, only job-related information
