Hiring is in the Worker view, not the Admin view. Select Worker in the Worker / Admin toggle at the top of the page, then open Hiring in the left menu. It has four pages: Hiring Progress, Candidates, Pipeline and Onboarding. This is true for admins and Company Admins too.
Who can do this: Anyone whose permission group includes a Hiring permission (Hiring Progress, Candidates, Pipeline or Onboarding). Being an admin or a manager doesn't add Hiring by itself. Starting a hire needs the separate "hire" permission in your group.
Open Hiring
At the top of the page, select Worker in the Worker / Admin toggle. On a narrow screen the toggle is at the bottom of the left menu.
In the left menu, select Hiring. It opens Hiring Progress if you can see it, otherwise Candidates, otherwise Onboarding.
Choose the page you need.
Page | What it's for |
Hiring Progress | Totals for Active Candidates, Total Candidates and Hired, a Hiring Progress table, a calendar, and Recently Hired. |
Candidates | The list of people you may hire. Use Add New to add one. The row menu has Hire, Edit Candidate, Reject and more. |
Pipeline | A board that shows candidates in stages (buckets). Cards also have Hire. |
Onboarding | Everyone with an offer or onboarding in progress, with a status for each person. Use Hire New to start a new hire. |
Older guides used different names: Leads is now Candidates, and Onboarding Employees is now Onboarding.
What stays in the Admin view
The Admin view holds the hiring setup, not the hiring pages:
Settings > Company > Hiring: Hiring Configuration (ID codes), Custom Candidate Form, Approval Settings (for example, "Require Approval before any offer is sent to the user"), and extra personal detail fields.
SequiDocs > Templates: offer letter and agreement templates (SequiDocs add-on).
S-Clearance: background checks (S-Clearance add-on).
If you don't see Worker or Hiring
No Worker tab in the toggle: your permission group has no Worker permissions. The toggle only shows views your group includes.
Worker tab, but no Hiring: your group doesn't include any Hiring permission.
To fix either one, a Company Admin (or an admin who can edit Permissions > Groups) adds the Hiring permissions to your permission group. Don't fix this by moving yourself to a different group, such as a Manager group: you could lose the Admin view and payroll.
On the mobile app
If your permission group includes Hiring, the app shows More > Hiring, with lists you can view and contact people from. Hiring, sending offers and the pipeline are on the web. Anyone can refer a candidate in the app: tap the + button (then New Candidate, if the app offers a choice).
Common questions
I'm the owner and I can't find "Hire New". Where is it?
Switch to the Worker view and open Hiring > Onboarding. Hire New is at the top of that page. If you don't see Hiring in the Worker view, or you can't start a hire, your permission group needs the Hiring permissions, including the "hire" permission.
Do managers get Hiring automatically?
No. The Is Manager field doesn't add menus. Hiring appears only if the person's permission group includes it.
