Stop Hunting! Create a Filtered View of Active Job Requisitions in Seconds

Time. As an HR professional, you're short on it. You're juggling recruitment, onboarding, performance reviews, and a million other things. Spending ages sifting through a messy list of job requisitions to find the active ones? That's time you'll never get back.

Imagine this: your 'Job Requisitions' tab looks like a chaotic spreadsheet. Closed positions mingle with open ones. Positions put on hold still clutter the view. It's a real pain.

The Goal: A clean, instantly accessible view showing only your active job requisitions. One click and BOOM – you're focused on what matters most: filling those open roles.

This is totally achievable. You can make this happen using filters and saved views. Think of it like this: You're creating a custom lens for your data, then saving that lens for future use.

Here's a step-by-step breakdown:

  1. Find the Filter Option: In most database or spreadsheet-like tools, you'll find a 'Filter' or 'Search' option, usually at the top of the column headers.
  2. Choose the Right Column: You probably have a column called 'Status' (or similar). This tracks the state of each job requisition.
  3. Define Your Filter Criteria: This is where the magic happens. Open the filter options for the 'Status' column. Deselect every status *except* 'Open'. If you have variations like 'Active', make sure those are included, too. Basically, choose anything that signifies the role is actively being recruited for.
  4. Test the Filter: Make sure only your active job requisitions are now visible. If closed or on-hold positions are still there, adjust your filter criteria.
  5. Save the View: Here's the real time-saver. Look for an option to 'Save View', 'Create Bookmark', or similar. Give your saved view a descriptive name like 'Active Job Requisitions' or 'Open Positions'.

Now, instead of manually filtering every time, you simply click your saved view and you're good to go. Think of it like setting presets on your car radio; get it set up once, and never have to look for it again.

Tools like GraceBlocks are built specifically to enable this kind of customization. You can design your 'Job Requisitions' tab exactly how you want it, define your own fields, and create multiple filtered views with ease. Plus, you can automate other HR processes, like sending automated SMS messages to candidates.

Stop wasting time. Start building efficiency into your HR workflows. Give a no-code solution like GraceBlocks a try and create a system that works for you.

Designing Your Scalable Onboarding System: From Offer Letter to Productive Employee

Okay, let’s talk onboarding. You know, that magical process that turns a nervous newbie into a productive, engaged member of your team?

Onboarding is the same: structure, support, and connection are key. It's important to focus on creating a repeatable process, so any new hires can get the same great experience as the previous ones, without the HR team needing to reinvent the wheel. And how do we achieve this? Let's dive in! So, what’s the problem we’re trying to solve? Too often, onboarding is a chaotic mess.

Securely Sharing Resumes & Feedback: A Simple Guide for HR Teams

Okay, let's talk about something every HR team deals with: sharing candidate info. Specifically, resumes and interview feedback. It sounds straightforward, but the devil's always in the details, right? Think about it. You've got resumes coming in from all over, internal notes from different interviewers, maybe even background check reports. How do you get all that info into the hands of the hiring manager *without* creating a massive, insecure email chain? And what about controlling who sees what?

You need a way to share only the relevant information, keep it secure, and easily manage who has access. That's the goal. The benefit? A more efficient, compliant, and ultimately *less stressful* hiring process. Here’s a step-by-step approach you can use, and how a tool like GraceBlocks can simplify the p...

Which HR Metrics Matter Most for SMBs? A Strategy for Tracking & Reporting

Okay, so you're running HR for a small business. You're juggling everything from onboarding to benefits, and let's face it, data tracking probably isn't at the top of your to-do list. But here's the thing: understanding a few key HR metrics can be a game-changer. It's like knowing which dials to tweak on a machine to make it run smoother. Think about it. You're probably relying on gut feelings about whether hiring is going well, or if employees are happy. Gut feelings are fine, but what if you could prove your instincts, or even better, uncover hidden problems you didn't know existed? So, what's the goal here? The goal is to move beyond reactive HR and become proactive. It's about having solid data to inform your decisions, improve employee experiences, and ultimately, contribute to the bottom line. Imagine being able to confidently say, "Our new onboarding process has decreased turnover by 15% in the first quarter!" That's pow...
