Release Highlights
We've introduced 8 updates across ATS, Sourcing, Pool and Shift. Pool opens on a dashboard, matches talent on competencies with the evidence shown, reaches recruiters inside Hire, and captures leads through as many forms as your programs need, while Shift workers can find their own cover for a shift they cannot make.
Available Now
ATS:
Minimum Years of Experience on openings, carried through to job postings. Previously announced — now available to all Hire customers.
Sourcing:
Hiring goals with a start date and no end date are supported across Source.
Pool:
The Pool Dashboard, with a reach and engagement funnel and every active campaign. Previously announced — now available to all Pool customers.
Multiple lead capture forms, each with its own questions and hidden tags. Previously announced — now available to all Pool customers.
Available Pool talent on Hire's Openings table, with a path straight to a campaign.
A rebuilt match score, with competencies, the evidence behind each one, and an AI-generated summary on every talent profile.
Shift:
Find Coverage Requests let workers offer a shift they cannot make to eligible teammates.
Coming Soon / Rolling Out
Sourcing:
Boost leaves the Source channel picker for customers on Source Basic or Premium; select Talroo to reach the same network.
Together these updates put the talent you already have in front of recruiters sooner, and take routine coordination off managers' plates.
ATS | Minimum Years of Experience
Hire openings carry an optional Minimum Years of Experience field on the Opening details page, with options from Any experience through 5+ years. The selected value appears in the Review Job step before posting, and openings without a selection default to Any experience.
Previously announced — now available to all Hire customers.
Availability: Available to all Hire customers.
Sourcing | Hiring Goals Without an End Date
Openings whose hiring goal has only a start date are supported on the Source dashboard, opening details, channel information and funnel pages. Instead of At Risk or On Track, these goals show In progress or Goal met, and Reach campaigns prompt you to add an end date to prevent overspending.
Availability: Available to all Source customers.
Pool | Pool Dashboard
Pool opens on a dashboard with a Reach & Engagement Funnel for email and SMS over the date range you choose, compared with the prior period, and an Active campaigns view showing each campaign's recipients, open rate and click rate, where a campaign can be marked as complete. Every metric explains its definition on hover, and nothing existing is removed or changed.
Previously announced — now available to all Pool customers.
Availability: Available to all Pool customers.
Pool | Multiple Lead Capture Forms
Create, duplicate, rename and archive named lead capture forms, each with its own fields, custom questions tied to your attributes, and hidden tags such as event, source or campaign. Every published form has a public link and a downloadable QR code, and your existing form becomes the Default form with its link unchanged, so printed QR codes stay valid. File uploads and an inline career site embed are not part of this release.
Previously announced — now available to all Pool customers.
Availability: Available to all Pool customers.
Pool | Available Talent in Hire
An Available Talent column on Hire's Openings table shows how much matching Pool talent exists for each opening; choose Email or SMS and a campaign is created in Pool with that audience already built. Applicant profiles in Hire open the Pool Talent profile, and the Pool in Hire settings control how talent is matched.
Availability: Available to all Pool customers.
Pool | Rebuilt Match Score
Match score is rebuilt around competencies drawn from what is on each record, every one carrying a confidence level and quoted evidence, and scores across four categories: Competencies, Proximity, Work availability and Job Interest. Talent profiles break a score down by category and open with an AI-generated summary of who the person is, and admins set the category weights and a minimum match score. Scores will change, and audiences built on a match score threshold may get smaller.
Availability: Available to all Pool customers.
Shift | Find Coverage Requests
A worker who cannot make an assigned shift selects Find Coverage, and the shift appears as a claimable open shift for eligible teammates, who are notified as they would be for any claimable shift. Your Claim Shift auto-approval rules decide routine claims, auto-decline rules decide who can ask for coverage, and a request that goes unclaimed by the deadline you set closes with the original worker still scheduled.
Availability: Available to all Shift customers.
Sourcing | Boost Channel Sunset
For customers on Source Basic or Premium, Boost My Job leaves the channel picker and Channel Enablement. Boost posted to Talroo's network, so select Talroo to keep reaching it. Past Boost campaigns and their reporting stay in All Campaigns, and live Boost campaigns run to their scheduled end date.
