What are Leagues?

Leagues are points-based competitions.

League page

There are two types of Leagues:

  1. Individual Leagues

    Individuals compete against other individuals.

  2. Squad Leagues

    Form squads and collaborate with your squad to compete against other squads.

โ„น๏ธ Squads are teams formed during a competition.

Unlike platform teams that usually reflect your company's hierarchy and are used for data access rulesets, squads only exist during the competition itself and are created during the competition set-up flow.

Leagues allow you to compete on multiple metrics during the same competition (e.g., CVs sent, interviews arranged, permanent placements).

๐Ÿ’ก Users with access to Reporting can also view league points for individual users within Performance Analytics

    Name your League and choose the time period you'd like the League to run for.

    Leagues will open at 8am on the start date, and end at 6pm on the end date.

    There are two league types:

    • Individuals

      In this league type, individual users will compete against each other.

    • Squads

      Organize your participants into squads, so that the squads (two or more) can compete against each other. Add a custom image per squad if you like.

  5. Select participants.

    Whether you've selected 'individuals' or 'squads', select the participants you'd like included in your league.

  6. Enter the league objectives.

    These are the metrics/activities you'd like your users to compete on. Award points for each metric based on the importance you hold for each metric/activity in the League.

โ“ FAQs

Can't find a league?

Be sure to check the 'Upcoming', and 'Ended' areas too, found at the top of the page.

My league has incorrect data/ missing points!

Check the date range - points will only count if logged after the start date (8am default) and before the end date (6pm default).

Also check the league activities that count towards the objective.
