Attributes allow you to customize your department setup and collect the exact information you need from candidates. Whether you want a simple Yes/No field, a rating scale, or detailed data like certificates and files, attributes give you the flexibility to adapt the recruitment process to your needs.

Access Attributes

Navigate to Settings → Templates → Attributes to access the attribute management area.

Create a Unit Attribute

Click “Create unit attribute”. A top-level attribute will be created automatically and assigned your department name.

Add, Edit, or Remove Attributes

  • Add a new attribute: Click the “+” icon next to the top attribute, enter a name in the dialog box, and click Save.

  • Edit an attribute: Click the pencil icon.

  • Remove an attribute: Click the bin icon.

Define Attribute Type

  • By default, attributes are created as Yes/No fields.

  • To collect additional information, such as certificates, dates, or file uploads, select an option from the Collection extra data types menu.

  • To change an attribute from Yes/No to a rating scale (1–5), enable the Rating option. This is useful for assessing soft skills or other competencies.

Create Attribute Hierarchies

  • You can add sub-attributes beneath a main attribute to create an attribute tree.

  • This enables the creation of multichoice attributes. Example: Create a Driving License attribute with sub-attributes for different license types (A, B, C, D, etc.).
