Overview
This document outlines how to use Remote Jobs in Evolve ATS and Career Websites (CWS) so you can:
- Capture Remote Types for a requisition
- Properly label and classify them in several places in Evolve ATS (Requisition List view, Requisition Detailed view, Dashboard Widgets)
- Pass on the Remote Type details to CWS
Evolve Career Sites will be able to showcase the remote jobs in their List and Detail views and allow candidates to filter jobs by Remote Type.
Evolve ATS and CWS can handle various types of Remote Jobs commonly used in the industry. This capability helps the recruiters post the remote jobs in a way they want and attract more talent to their remote positions.
Audience
Recruiters, Hiring Managers, and Admins
Prerequisites for Remote Jobs Support
The following actions are required to start using the Remote Jobs capabilities in Evolve ATS:
- Add Remote Type field
- The customer's Admin user needs to add the Requisition Standard Field (name = Remote Type) to their requisition template to start capturing the Remote Type of their requisitions.
- This field will be available for the customer in the Custom Fields section of Admin.
The customer does not need to take any specific action to start showing Remote Types on CWS. Once the toggle is enabled and the Admin user has added the Remote Type field to the requisition form, the Requisition's Remote Type details will automatically display on CWS.
Add Remote Type Field to Requisition Template
NOTE: This process requires the Admin role.
Navigate to Admin > ATS > View Requisition Library > View Requisition Templates.
Select a requisition template.
Expand the Details section below Available Requisition Fields.
Click and drag the Remote Type field to your desired position in your requisition template.
The field editor will open once the field has been added to the requisition template. If desired, you can then make selections such as:
- Making the field Required - When selecting this option, requisition creators cannot submit for approval without providing a value for the Remote Type field.
- Trigger Approvals - When this option is selected, the requisition's existing approval status will be canceled, and a new approval process will be triggered if the requisition creator modifies the value of the Remote Type field.
- Modify Role Access - This option allows you to define the read/write permissions for the Remote Type field for all users in your system.
NOTE: It is not recommended that the names of Evolve ATS standard fields be changed.
Click Done.
Click Save at the bottom of the page to finalize your changes.
Repeat this process for any additional Requisition Templates as needed.
Remote Type Field
Once the Remote Type field is added to your Requisition Template(s), the requisition creator will select an appropriate Remote Type in the dropdown.
The Remote Type field will include four different Remote Types:
- Remote - Fully remote positions.
- Hybrid Remote - Positions that are primarily remote, where the employees can work from anywhere but occasionally need to attend the office of the specified location per the organization's policies.
- Temporarily Remote - These are positions that are temporarily remote (e.g., due to the pandemic, office remodels, etc.). When the organization decides to reopen its offices, the employee is expected to return to the office and work from a specified location.
- No Remote - These are not remote positions, and the employees need to report to the specified office location.
Once the Remote Type is captured in the requisition creation/edit pages, it will be displayed in different places in Evolve ATS.
Remote Type in Requisition List View
The Remote Type selected by the requisition creator will be shown in the Requisition List view in place of the Job Location when the Remote Type is Remote or Hybrid Remote. When the Remote Type is Temporarily Remote, No Remote, or when the Remote Type is not provided during the requisition creation, the Requisition List view will continue to display the Job Location(s).
Remote Type in Detailed List View
The Remote Type selected by the requisition creator will be shown in the Requisition Detail view along with the Job Location when the Remote Type is Remote, Hybrid Remote, or Temporarily Remote. When the Remote Type is No Remote, or when the Remote Type is not provided during the requisition creation, the Requisition Detail view will continue to display the Job Location(s).
Remote Type in Dashboard Widgets
The Remote Type selected by the requisition creator will be shown in the following Dashboard Widgets:
- All Open Requisitions Widget
- My Open Requisition Widget
In both Dashboard Widgets, the Remote Type will be shown in place of the Job Location when the Remote Type of the Job Requisition is Remote or Hybrid Remote. When the Remote Type is Temporarily Remote, No Remote, or when the Remote Type is not provided during the requisition creation, the Requisition List view will continue to display the Job Location(s).
Remote Type in Career Websites
The remote type selected by the requisition creator will be provided on the Career Websites so jobseekers can easily understand the job type. Jobseekers can view the remote jobs if provided in the Job List and Job Details view. Jobseekers can also filter and search for the most relevant remote jobs through a Remote Type filter if added.
Remote Type in Job List View
The remote type the requisition creator selects will be shown in the Job List view on your Evolve CWS. When the remote type is Remote, Hybrid Remote, or Temporarily Remote, it will be displayed, along with the job location. When the Remote Type is No Remote, or the Remote Type is not provided during the requisition creation, the Requisition List view will display the job location(s).
NOTE: The sample Career Website below is used for representation purposes only.
Remote Type in Job Detail View
The remote type the requisition creator selects will be shown in the Job Detail view on your Evolve CWS. When the Remote Type is remote, hybrid remote, or temporarily remote, it will be displayed, along with the job location. When the Remote Type is No Remote or is not provided during the requisition creation, the Requisition List view will display the job location(s).
NOTE: The sample Career Website below is used for representation purposes only.
Remote Type Filter in Career Websites
A Remote Type filter is available in the Evolve Career Website framework, along with the seven additional filter options:
- Category
- Department
- Region
- Locations
- Job Type
- Company (if a customer has subsidiaries)
- Keyword Search Field
You can add any of the above filters to your CWS based on your needs. Once your organization has enabled the Remote Job Support option, you can add the Remote Type filter to your CWS.
NOTE: Upon enabling Remote Jobs Support for your organization, the Remote Type filter will not be added to your CWS by default. You must have your Admin submit a Help Center ticket to enable it.
Once the Remote Type filter is added to your Evolve CWS, the filter section will provide two options to choose from in the dropdown:
- No Remote Option – When the user selects this option, the jobs with the Remote Type No Remote (and jobs for which Remote Type is not provided) will be displayed in the filtered results.
- Remote – When the user selects this option, the jobs with Remote Type Remote, Hybrid Remote, and Temporarily Remote will be displayed in the filtered results.
- No Selection – When the user makes no selection, all jobs with all Remote Types will be displayed.
Desktop view of Remote Type filter:
Mobile view of Remote Type filter:
In Search results, when the user filters by a specific location, all Jobs with that location will display (current behavior of your CWS) along with Remote Jobs (with Remote Type = Hybrid Remote and Temporarily Remote) with the corresponding job locations and Remote Jobs (fully Remote Jobs). Remote jobs will be displayed in the search results regardless of the selected location.
NOTE: Remote Type will not be supported in the Keyword Search bar. However, if the Job Description has the keyword Remote, the results will display those Jobs. This is not a recommended search option for candidates, as the keyword search for Remote will also display if the Job Description is not Remote.
