Skip Hiring: Move profiles out of Talent Pool and into Staff Management

Don't use flaik's Hiring feature? Follow these steps to move your staff into Staff Management to get them back into flaik.

While any user with the right permissions can complete these steps, this task is often completed by the account holder after setting up the upcoming season with the blue banner.

Why do I need to do this?

When you complete the staff sort, flaik guides you through where to put your staff profiles at the end of your season. Staff profiles can exist in Staff Management (this is where the "year-round" staff will go), Talent Pool, and Archive.

Talent Pool operates similarly to Staff Management, but it belongs to the Hiring feature. Staff who are in Hiring will not be able to log into flaik, and they will not appear in places like Scheduling or Class Management.

In other words, if the staff member is working, you need to move them out of Talent Pool and into Staff Management. This is what the Hiring flow does by nature, however, if you send job offers to your staff through another method (such as through your HRIS system), you may already be completing this flow elsewhere.

So, this article will show you how you can easily move all your staff profiles from Talent Pool and into Staff Management.

Note: when you complete this step, the staff member will be able to log in with their password again.

This article assumes you have created the upcoming season and sorted your staff already. If you haven't, please complete those steps: the earlier articles in this section will guide you.

How-to

Step one: Archive the staff you wish to move into Staff Management.

wait, really?

Yes, really! When a profile has been archived, you have the choice of restoring it to Talent Pool or Staff Management. So, if you archive all the staff in Talent Pool, you'll be able to select all of them and put them straight into Staff Management without much fuss.

To get started, go to Talent Pool and select all the staff you need to move to Staff Management

With everyone accounted for, click the Archive Staff button on the right.

Go to Archived People. To find the profiles you just dropped here, use the settings wheel to adjust the table on this page--you're looking for the "Archived" field.

Pro tip: if you use the Sort by menu to sort on the Archived field, you can very quickly find the people you just added to the archive.

This is the moment we were waiting for! Once the Archive column is in view, simply select all the people that you archived in the previous step and then hit Restore profiles.

After you click the button, switch over to Staff Management to find the profiles there.

Congrats, that's the end of this article!
