Recruiting sources track where you post jobs and where your candidates come from. Workday assigns a recruiting source to a candidate when creating their job application. You can manually assign a different source to the candidate by editing their job application. You can also use the
Put Candidate
web service to assign recruiting sources to candidates.
  1. Access the
    Maintain Recruiting Sources
    task.
  2. (Optional) Enable recruiting source categorization on external and internal non-worker career sites by selecting the
    Allow Recruiting Source Categorization on Career Sites
    check box.
    Workday categorizes sources on the
    How Did You Hear About Us?
    prompt when career sites have 8 or more sources configured for 2 or more categories.
  3. Create and edit recruiting sources.
    Custom recruiting sources display in prompts and reports. You can optionally map them to Workday-delivered sources in the
    Maps To
    column. You can't map more than 1 custom source to the same Workday-delivered source.
    The
    Source Administrator
    column represents the worker assigned to manage a particular recruiting source. This column is for informational purposes only.
