Steps: Manage Talent Pools

There are 2 different ways that you can staff a talent pool:
  • Static
    : You manually select workers to add them to talent pool membership.
  • Dynamic
    : Workday determines pool membership based on the results of a saved search.
  1. Select a talent pool to take action on it.
    These actions apply to all talent pool members. To exclude members, remove them from the talent pool before completing the action.
    You can't take actions or change membership on an inactive talent pool.
