In the final Two Minute Tuesday of the current ‘season,’ we’ll walk through the creation of a custom applicant tracking report. This is a great way to export data about your placements, either contract or permanent, for use in Excel or other systems.
Since many of our users are working with Chrome for the first time, or aren’t familiar with some of the handy shortcuts that can be used in it, we thought we’d dedicate this week’s edition to keyboard shortcuts and other tricks for Chrome that’ll come in handy as you work in PCRecruiter.
The ‘Available’ date field on a name record seems like any other date field in the system, but it does have some special properties when used in conjunction with the ‘Contractor/Temp’ Status. Today’s video shows you what it can do.
Today’s video is about saving your commonly used search queries so that you can open, modify, and re-use them at any time. Saved search queries can save you a great deal of time vs. re-creating complex advanced searches all the time.
In this week’s video, we’ll talk about saving time while entering positions by using default values in fields as well as saving whole position records as templates for later use.
This week, we’re looking at the newly updated PCR Capture extension for Google Chrome. Capture is a free add-on for Chrome that saves PCRecruiter users data entry time when creating contact records from the web. Download it from the Chrome Web Store now.
While the tools in the PCR web interface and the PCR Portal for MS Outlook allow us to drag in a bunch of resumes and parse the contact info from each one to create a new record, this still requires manual confirmation for each record. If we’ve got a backlog of CVs on the hard drive or an email account that’s just collecting incoming resumes, being able to pull all of them into the database without reviewing them one by one can save a ton of time.
Today we’re going to be looking at an exciting new feature for creating and working with contacts and attachments in the PCRecruiter Portal for Microsoft Outlook: Drag and Drop. You can download the latest PCRecruiter Portal installer / updater from this link (license key required).
