User Definitions
It is important to remember that CareerPortal permissions are driven by user groups and are set up in a layered fashion to ensure that each user group encompasses the necessary permissions to efficiently and effectively operate the application according their needs. With this being said, individuals must be tied to the appropriate user groups in order to perform the appropriate tasks.
For example, if you have an individual who has the responsibility of reviewing and approving job postings in addition to actually posting jobs, then this individual should be tied to the Applicant, Job Poster, and Manager user groups.
The below table provides the tasks that can be performed by each user group.
| Potential Applicant | An end user who does not have a CareerPortal account. TIP: Potential Applicants must register for an account to become an Applicant and submit a job application.
