A requisition is your company's official request to open a role — the internal step where you say why you're hiring, for what, and get the right approvals before a job goes live. It keeps hiring structured, budgeted, and transparent.
Why requisitions matter
Approved by the right people — routed through your approval flow before a job can open.
Tied to your headcount — approved requisitions feed your manpower plan's budgeted headcount.
Documented — the purpose, budget, and priority of each role live in one place.
What's inside a requisition
Beyond the basics (job title, department, number of openings), the requisition form — configured by your admin — can collect location, work model, description, employment type, budget and salary, experience level, start date, a hiring justification, and any custom fields.
Requisition vs. job post
A requisition is the internal approval step — planning, budget, permissions.
A job post is the external step candidates see and apply to.
Once a requisition is approved, its details carry into the job you create from it.
Frequently asked questions
Does every requisition become a job post?
Not automatically — an approved requisition is ready to become a job, but you create the job when you're ready. See Create a Requisition to raise one.
