Job Posting Portal

The first step is to Add a New Portal to your site.

...

It is important to include the groups that will need to access this portal in the Portal Permissions. We recommend adding any group that will need access to use and any group that will be managing or updating the portal. In this example, we have added GRP All Staff so that all staff can view the Job Postings and submit applications. In addition, the GRP HR and GRP Managers groups have been added as these groups will be provided with elevated access to manage job postings, job descriptions and review all job applications.

...

The page that is displayed when the Job Posting Portal is selected in the Quick Start menu is called the Portal Landing Page.

Headings & Pages

The Job Posting Portal has 3 headings and 5 pages in the Quick Start Menu:

...

For example, when a staff person, whose user account has not been added to the GRP HR or the GRP Managers group, views the Job Posting Portal, they do not have access to the HR and Managers heading or the pages below that heading which include All Applications and Job Descriptions.

...

Page Parts

Page part configuration is a very powerful tool which can be set up by your ShareVision Administrator to either restrict or allow changes by users to data and/or documents on your site. Just like with configuring access to pages, security groups can be used to allow or prevent users from viewing, adding or editing forms and uploading or editing documents.

In the screen captures below, you can see that only the HR Manager can edit the Job Postings and upload Job Descriptions on the Current Job Postings page.

...

On the Current Job Postings page, managers do not have the same options available to them:

...

Staff have the same access on the Current Job Postings Page as managers:

Configuring List Page Part Buttons

The reason the HR Manager can add new or edit existing Job Postings is because they have been added to the GRP HR security group and this group has been provided with access to the New and Edit buttons on the Current Job Postings List Page Part.

...

See List PagePart: Set Up and Configuration - PagePart Buttons to learn more.

...

Similarly, your ShareVision Administrator can configure the page part buttons on document page parts. In the example below, no one can add a new folder to the document library and only users in the GRP HR security group can upload new documents or edit existing ones. Refer to Documents PagePart: Set Up and Configuration - PagePart Buttons to learn more.

...

On the Current Job Postings, any user can select a job posting in the list and it will be displayed. Note there are more fields on the job posting form than what is displayed on the list page part.

...

Once a job posting has been filled, the job posting will automatically be removed from the Current Job Postings page and will be listed on the Closed Job Postings page instead. The job posting ‘moves’ automatically because of the additional field filters set on the page parts for both the Current Job Postings

...

and the Closed Job Postings:

...

There are times where you may want to prevent users from displaying the form so that they cannot see all of the details on the form. For example, once a successful candidate has been selected, the Closed Job Posting page part can display limited details such as the Posting Date, Posting Number, Postion Title, Location, Closing Date and Time and the Successful Candidate. The Wage Rate, however, is not included in this page part and disabling users from viewing the form will prevent them from seeing this information.

On the list page part settings, in the pagepart buttons section, you can disable the option for users to view the form by selecting the Disable “Display” Form checkbox. Note that you can also select to allow the display form to be visible for users in selected groups. See List PagePart: Set Up and Configuration - PagePart Buttons to learn more.

...
