Recruiting the right talent is a critical process for any organization. SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management simplifies and structures this journey, ensuring efficiency from job requisition to onboarding. In this blog, we will explore the Recruiting Management Workflow in SAP SuccessFactors and the steps to configure it in an instance system.
Understanding the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Workflow
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management helps HR teams streamline hiring with a structured five-step process.
1. Job Requisition
A hiring manager or recruiter creates a Job Requisition, specifying essential details like:
• Position Title
• Location
• Job Description
• Required Skills & Experience

2. Candidate Profile
Candidates submit their applications, and their details are stored in the system. The Candidate Profile serves as a record for recruiters to evaluate applicants efficiently.

3. Application Submission
Candidates apply for open positions by submitting job applications. Recruiters review these applications to shortlist candidates for further evaluation.

4. Offer Management
After interviews and assessments, the most suitable candidate receives a Job Offer through the system. The candidate can review and accept the offer digitally.

5. Employee Onboarding
- Once the candidate accepts the offer, they transition into the Employee stage. This includes:
• Initiating onboarding processes
• Completing necessary paperwork
• Setting up system access for the new hire
With SAP SuccessFactors, organizations can track and manage the entire hiring process seamlessly
