Approve Requisitions
Approvals can be performed through the following ways:
- Evolve ATS Messages
- Dashboard Widget
- Hiring Team Mobile App
Requisition Approval via Email
If enabled, approvers can approve or reject requisitions, offers, and candidates submitted to hiring managers via email. To enable this admin setting, please see Enable Requisition and Offer Approvals via Email.
Approver(s) will receive an email to Approve or Reject a requisition. The approval requests are sent in sequential order. Previous approvals and approval notes will be included in the approval request email below the job details.
Approvers can see all the requisition details, including a full description of the position and links to either approve or reject the requisition. The requisition can be approved or rejected directly through your email or smartphone without logging into the system using the provided Approve or Reject links. This will open an email reply to Evolve ATS to indicate your response. Approval notes can be entered within the brackets if needed.
If there are multiple approvers, the next person in the chain will receive an email and go through the same process. The recruiter will be notified of each approval or rejection of the requisition (if enabled). Once all approvers have approved the job, the recruiter will be notified, and they can post the job to your company career site and job boards.
