Tell your Talent Pool about a new role
When you open a role, email the people in your own Talent Pool who live nearby — once, in your organisation's name, with an unsubscribe link.
Past applicants are often your best source of new staff. When you open a role, you can email the people in your own Talent Pool who live near it.
- In Recruitment → Open a role, fill in the role and its work postcode.
- Tick Also email people in my Talent Pool who live within and choose 5, 10, 25 or 50 km.
- Check the count, for example "About 12 people", then click Open role.
What happens
- Each person gets one email from your organisation's name: "<your organisation> is hiring: <role>", with a button to see the role and apply. Replies come to you, following your reply settings.
- It goes once per role, only to applicants in your Talent Pool who have an email and a postcode within that distance (the nearest 300 at most). Staff are never included, and neither are people from any other organisation.
- Every email has a link to stop emails from your organisation about new roles. People who use it are left out next time automatically.
- The role shows "emailed to N in your Talent Pool". Anyone who applies is marked "Workforce Ignite Jobs – Talent Pool email".
Only tick this if these people would expect to hear about new roles from you. Australian law (the Spam Act) expects that, and you're responsible for it.
