  3. (Optional) Set Up Hubs.
    Configure the
    Career Hub
     and customize its:
    • Name. If you rename the hub, it still surfaces as the Career Hub in global search. Consider adding the new name as a search synonym for Career Hub. For details, see Reference: Edit Tenant Setup - Search.
    • Announcements.
    • Suggested links. If you’re a Workday Recruiting customer, consider adding the
      Manage Job Alerts
       and
      My Referral Activity
       reports as suggested links.
    • Overview
       page configuration, including cards and quick actions.
    • Navigation items.
    Workday strongly discourages removing these navigation items from the hub:
    • The
      Overview
       page, since it's the entry point for the hub. If you remove it from the hub, your workers can't open the hub unless they directly access one of the reports within it. Instead, customize the content of the
      Overview
       page to meet your organization’s needs.
    • Pages in the
      Browse Opportunities
       section, if you enable Opportunity Marketplace or Talent Optimization in the
      Career Hub
      . If you remove 1 of these pages, workers can still access it by clicking
      Browse All
       on the
      Suggestions for You
       page, but the navigation menu is removed from the browse page.
    Security: 1 of these domains in the System functional area:

  5. Configure the
    Self-Service: Career Hub Talent and Performance
     domain in the Career and Development Planning and Career Hub functional areas to grant workers access to the Career Hub.
    If you also plan to enable Opportunity Marketplace or Talent Optimization in
    Career Hub
