Track Positions in a Job

Introduction

This article explains how to view and track all positions created under a job. It is useful for recruiters and hiring managers who want to monitor hiring progress, position status, and time to close—without relying on external trackers.

You can access all position-level details directly from the Positions tab within a job.

How to view positions for a job

1. Go to the Hire module.

2. Click the Jobs tab.

3. Select the job you want to review.

4. Open the Job Info section.

5. Click the Positions tab.
   
   

This opens a consolidated view of all positions created under the selected job.
 

What you can see in the Positions tab
 

Position overview

At the top of the Positions tab, you can quickly review:

• Closed vs Total positions

• A split between Planned and Unplanned positions

This overview helps you understand overall hiring progress at a glance.
 

Position details

For each position listed, you can see the following information:

• Position ID, marked as Planned or Unplanned

• Location

• Start hire date

• Target hire date

• Status (Open or Closed)

• Time to close

• Candidate name (once the position is filled)

Time to close is calculated as:

Candidate hired date (position closure date) − Start hire date

Once a position is filled, this metric helps you understand how long it took to close the position.
 

Notes, Tips, Important, Warnings

Note:
Time to close is calculated automatically and cannot be manually edited.

Tip:
Use the Planned vs Unplanned split to identify hiring deviations from the original workforce plan.
 

Actions on a closed position

Change the candidate linked to a closed position

If you need to move a candidate to a different position under the same job, you can update the linked candidate even after a position is closed.

1. Click the three dots under Actions.

2. Select Change Candidate.
   
   

3. Select a different open position within the same job category. After making your selection, click on the "Review Changes" button to proceed and confirm your updates.
   
   
    

4. Click Save.
   
   
   
   
   This is helpful when a candidate needs to be reassigned without reopening or recreating positions. 

   How to view positions across jobs

   Easily track and analyze every job position with detailed reports showing metrics like Time to Close, Candidate Name, Closed By (Recruiter), and Planned/Unplanned. These insights help monitor recruiter performance and hiring health.
