If your new Litework Recruitment Website is about to go live, this is a check list of essential settings. Many of them will be configured for you but it is a good idea to double-check them to ensure that the right information is presented to clients and candidates.
1. Ensure your Contact Details are correct.
HOW?
Go into the Configuration -> Advanced Global Settings options and check / edit the details at the top on the right. They are Site Name, Site Url, Main Contact Name and Main Contact Email.
2. Customise drop-down values
HOW?
Configuration -> Manage Field Options contains many of the simpler drop-down fields.
Some of the more complex fields have their own sections under Configuration:
a) Edit Job Statuses
b) Edit Job Application Statuses
c) Edit Job Groups / Titles
d) Edit Regions / Locations
e) Edit Work Types / Salaries
f) Manage Job Sectors
3. Customise the email templates for Job Application statuses
HOW?
This is done in the same section as b) above, Edit Job Application Statuses. Each email template consists of a subject field and a body field.
The content of these will be used to construct the subject and body of emails. They may contain merge fields, e.g. #Name#, which should generally
be left alone as they will contain actual data when emails are produced. The rest of the text can be customised, such as adding your company name to
the subject as well as adding your standard company email footer at the bottom of the body.
4. Customise Welcome emails and Job Alerts if activated
HOW?
In Configuration -> Configure Emails for Registrations and Alerts. This section contains a number of subject/body templates used to produce various
system emails. Like section 3, the merge fields are dynamic so will automatically be personalised, the standard text should be customised to suit.
