Roles in Recruitera help you control what each team member can see and do inside the system. Instead of giving everyone full access, you can assign permissions based on their responsibilities — keeping your data secure and your hiring process organized.
Each role includes a set of permissions that define how the user interacts with candidates, jobs, workflows, and company settings. Admins can use predefined roles or create custom ones that match their organization’s structure.
Why Roles Matter
Using roles allows you to:
Protect sensitive hiring data
Ensure each user only sees the jobs and candidates they should
Control who can take actions like moving candidates, sending emails, or editing jobs
Standardize access for recruiters, hiring managers, and leadership
Support teams of any size with scalable permission management
How Permissions Work
Permissions are grouped into categories to keep things simple:
General — Basic access such as viewing candidates, adding profiles, or accessing reports
Workflow — Actions inside the candidate pipeline like move, disqualify, delete, and send interviews
Features — Access to templates, workflows, and configuration tools
Company — Organization-wide settings like jobs, career page, roles, and team members
Add-ons — Enterprise features such as requisition and manpower planning
Each role can have any combination of these permissions enabled or disabled.
