Recruiters are interested in the end-to-end process for candidates. For example, how long do candidates spend in each part of the process?
Activity Tracking Overview
Activity Tracking gives the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting user the ability to "follow" up to 100 existing external candidates. By following the candidate, the user’s feed displays specific actions that the followed candidates have completed.
This is the list of events that can appear on the feed:
- Candidate Logs In to the Career Site
- Candidate Completes a Data Capture Form
- Candidate Saved a Draft of a Job Application
- Candidate Abandons Job Application
- Candidate Applies to a Job
The most recent event displays at the top of the feed. Users can navigate to the candidate’s profile and take actions such as add the candidate to a talent pool or email campaign.
Recruiting Dashboard Navigation
Recruiting users can be granted permission for the Recruiting Dashboard, which includes a Candidate Activity Feed portlet. Recruiters can use the Recruiting Dashboard as their home page, if desired. Recruiters can navigate to the candidate’s profile by clicking their name. Navigate to the Candidate Workbench for the job requisition by clicking the job title.
Data Privacy and Permissions
To appear on the Activity Feed, candidates must accept the Data Privacy Consent Statement. This does not notify candidates that a Recruiting user has decided to follow them; the candidates’ actions that appear in the feed are simply aggregated in one place.
Recruiting users must be given permission to access and be able to use the Follow functionality. The Follow feature mimics the existing permissions of the user. For instance, a recruiter may follow a candidate who applies to a requisition that they do not have permission to view. From the Activity Feed, the recruiter will see that the candidate has applied to the job, but cannot view additional details on the requisition. Also, Recruiting User A cannot see who Recruiting User B follows.
