Hiring roles decide what each member can do in Recruitera. On the Hiring Roles screen you see every role, who holds it, and a permission matrix of exactly what it's allowed to do. This requires a role with permission to manage roles & members (typically Admins).
Before you start
Required role: a role with the Manage roles & members permission (typically Admins)
Where to find it: Settings → Team & Roles → Hiring Roles
How roles are shown
The left list holds your roles (for example Company Admin, Hiring Manager, Recruiter, Interviewer). Select one to see, on the right:
A short description and Members assigned — who currently holds the role. If a member holds more than one role, their effective access is the union of those roles.
A permission matrix grouped by area (General, Workflow, and so on), where each permission — such as View Candidates, Move Candidates, Send Emails — is a toggle.
Locked permissions
Some toggles show a padlock and can't be changed. A permission may be locked because it's fixed for that role, not included in your plan, or not yet available. Locked permissions make it clear what a role can and can't be granted.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if someone has two roles?
Their access is the union of both roles — if either role grants a permission, they have it.
Why is a permission greyed out with a padlock?
It's locked — either fixed for that role, not on your plan, or not yet available — so it can't be toggled for this role.
