Adding & Inviting Users to a Team

There are several ways a user can be added to a Team. We’ll take a look at the three most common ways in this article.

  1. Adding a User to a Team from Recruiting
  2. Inviting a New User to a Team Who has no Account or History On Your Platform
  3. Adding a User to a Team from Another Team

Helpful Reminder - We use the DEFAULT terms (labels) in all of our Support Documentation. Your Account may have Custom Labels enabled and in use. For example, the term TEAM is the default label for the grouping of users on the platform. However, the label TEAM may have been given a Custom Label such as CLASS, COHORT; DIVISION; CLIENT; DEPARTMENT; ETC. If you are an ADMIN on your account and your plan supports Custom Labels, you can view and edit your Custom Labels HERE.

#Option 1: Adding a User to a Team from Recruiting

When a candidate has applied to a position (or program, job, etc) and you are ready to accept the candidate onto a Team, there are two ways a candidate can be added to a team: Manually and Programmatically (via a predefined sequence action). Here we’ll take a look at how to Manually add a candidate to a Team from Recruiting.

Step 1: Navigate to Recruiting (Admissions)

Admissions Menu

Step 2: Identify Candidate

Select the particular Program (job, requisition, etc) that the candidate applied to.

Program Selector

When viewing candidates who have applied to a particular Program, you can view the candidates in list view or block (aka: ‘kanban board’) view. Select the view you want from the top right ‘block’ or ’list’ icons.

Step 3: Choose “Add to Team”

From either the Kanban (this example) or list view, click on the ellipsis (3 vertical dots) to the right of the candidate and select “Add to Team” in the drop-down menu.

Step 4: Complete “Add to Team” Information

In the pop-up, select the Team you want to add the candidate to and the Role you want them to have. Click “Add to Team” to complete the process.

Step 5: Manage User

Upon clicking “Add To Team” in the step above, the User will receive an Notification via email and on the Platform that they have been added to the team. You can now manage the user on this team.

Be sure to complete the Recruiting process by placing the candidate in the appropriate stage of the Recruiting Sequence.
