Hiring team groups are a powerful feature that allows for efficient management of user permissions across different departments. This article will explain what hiring team groups are, how they work, and how to use them effectively.

What are Hiring Team Groups?

Hiring team groups are collections of users that need the same permission across all positions in a specific position group. They differ from hiring teams, which are typically associated with individual positions.

Key Features of Hiring Team Groups

  • Quick assignment of users to memberships

  • Automatically grants appropriate permissions for each hiring team under the hiring team group

  • Accessible under the same tab as hiring teams

  • Represents a department-level team structure

How Hiring Team Groups Work

When you add a user to a group, they are automatically assigned the permissions associated with that group's membership for each hiring team in the hiring team group. This streamlines the process of managing permissions across multiple positions within a department.

Managing Hiring Team Groups

Adding Users to a Group

  • Navigate to this BrightHire Settings Page

  • Select the group you'd like to add the user to (we pull these from the ATS)

  • Click "Add User"

  • Grant them a permission

  • Click "Submit"

Changing user roles within a group

  • Navigate to this BrightHire Settings Page

  • Select the group you'd like to edit

  • Drill into the user you'd like to edit

  • Update their permission

Removing users from a group

  • Navigate to this BrightHire Settings Page

  • Select the group you'd like to edit

  • Drill into the user you'd like to edit

  • Click Remove

Note: Changes to hiring team groups may take up to an hour to be reflected in the system.

Important Considerations

  • Members of a hiring team group must be added manually

  • There can be one hiring team group per department

  • Allow up to an hour for changes to take effect across all hiring teams

  • Regularly review and update group memberships to ensure accurate permissions

By effectively utilizing hiring team groups, you can streamline your hiring process and ensure that team members have the appropriate access and permissions they need to perform their roles efficiently.
