v2025.4 (02/20/2025)

Application Portal - Search Engines and Security    Better  

The security and search engine settings have been optimized in the application portal.

  • Data Tab - Search Engines Section
    The field Application portal visible to search engines is now called Indexing for search engines to clarify what enabling this function does.
    Additionally, we have added an informational text to help you understand the impact of these settings:
    "If indexing is disabled, a guideline is set for search engines and job crawlers, instructing them to ignore the portal's content. For intranet portals, additional protection through IP access rules and SSO configuration in the Security tab is strongly recommended."
  • Security Tab
    The field for IP restrictions is now always visible when opening the tab, ensuring greater transparency.


Application Form - Screening Questions    Better  

In the questionnaire type application form, screening questions are now displayed exactly where and in the same order as they appear to applicants when filling out the form.


We have made the following corrections    Fixed  

  • Special Characteristics: A bug in the selection of special characteristics in screening questions has been fixed.

  • Users: It is now possible to search for users using the special character parentheses ( ) without errors.

  • Google for Jobs: To ensure the correct display of logos, we are now passing the file extension to search engines again.

  • Screening Questions: Leading spaces in screening questions are no longer allowed to prevent errors in data processing.

  • Multiposting: Access barriers in multiposting have been resolved.


v2025.3  (02/06/2025)

How we are rolling out the feature

February 2nd 

Subscriptions are not yet available; permissions will be added.

  • We are adding the two new permissions (Consultation-Relevant Information and System-Relevant Information) to the roles Administrator (Default) and HR Department (Default).
  • These two new permissions will also be added to all roles that contain one of the following permissions:
    • Basic Settings | Configure
    • Roles | View/Edit/Create
    • Roles | View/Edit/Create/Delete
    • Publications (of job postings) | View/Edit/Create
    • Publications (of job postings) | View/Edit/Create/Delete
    • Publications (of job postings) | View/Edit/Create/Delete by User Group
    • Applications | View/Edit/Create
    • Applications | View/Edit/Create/Delete
    • Selectable as Supervisor

February 17th 

The info channels can now be subscribed to, and users will receive a notification about the options.

  • The "My User" page is accessible to everyone. Infor channels can be subscribed to there.
  • At the first login of the day, all users will see a notification about the info channels. New users will see this notification upon their first login in the future.


Should users be unable to subscribe to the info channels (system-relevant and consultation-relevant)?

Until February 16th, you can modify roles or create new roles that no longer include these permissions.


This is what the notification looks like for users on February 17th and for new users after their first login. 


Application Portals – Search Engine Behavior      Better  

We have implemented a policy for search engines that sets the noindex, follow directive for your unstyled iframe job listing. As a result, the iframe list no longer appears in search results, while your job postings continue to be found and listed.


Basic Settings – IP Access Rules      Better  

You can now also enter IP addresses with a CIDR range of /32. For example: 185.11.222.22/32


MS Teams Meeting – Email Text      Better  

We have removed redundancies from the system invitation text for MS Teams meetings to enhance readability. 


We have made the following corrections      Corrected    

  • oData: When data for the organizational unit is retrieved, it is now identical in oData and the Excel raw data as expected.
  • Font Awesome:  The links to the Font Awesome icons in the Benefits now point to the freely available icons. 

v2025.2 (01/23/2025)

Job Publication - Job Publication Channels    Better  

We have improved the overview of job publication channels in the job publication.

The channels are now divided into two sections:

  • Own Job Publication Channels
    Here you can see all the job publication channels you have created in your system.
  • Additional Channels and Campaigns
    This section first displays your multiposting campaigns, followed by postings through our agency channels.
 Example Image  


Questionnaires - Source    Better  

You can now configure in the master data whether a source should be selectable in questionnaires for applicants.

For example, you can create specific recruitment agencies as sources and assign applications to them without allowing applicants to select this source themselves.

Things to note

  • By default, all existing and new sources have the setting Visible in Questionnaire: Yes selected.
  • If you want to hide sources from applicants, change the setting in the sources to Visible in Questionnaire: No.

 Example Image


We have made the following corrections    Fixed  

  • Layout: In the mobile view, the Apply with WhatsApp button in job postings is now displayed correctly.
  • System Login: There were occasional issues with login. These have been resolved. 
  • Application Portal: Despite the deactivated setting "Application portal visible to search engines," it was possible that indexing by search engines occurred. This behavior has now been fixed.



v2025.1 (01/09/2025)

Users - User Photo    Better  

To improve the system's performance and optimize loading times, we have limited the maximum file size for user photos to 256 kilobytes. This supports SEO measures through faster loading times and ensures consistency throughout the system.

Photos you have already uploaded that currently exceed this size will not cause errors. However, new photos must meet the new requirements to be uploaded.


Calendar Integration - Rooms   Better  

To ensure the display of all availabilities and keep loading times low, we have limited the creation of rooms per location to 20.


Tip for locations with many rooms

If you need more than twenty rooms per location, we recommend splitting the locations. For example, by entering "Hannover - Floor 1" in the name field and then adding only the rooms located on that floor. For "Hannover - Floor 2," add the corresponding rooms, and so on.

Please also remember to assign the external name for the location if necessary, so your applicants do not receive internal data.


Correspondence Templates - Optimized wording   Better  

When selecting the status change option in correspondence templates, the field status is now called target status. This change makes it clearer to which status the correspondence template is assigned.


We have implemented the following fixes    Fixed  

  • Media: Making multiple changes to the settings of media now works without errors again.
  • Tasks: After editing tasks in the personnel requirements area and making changes to the user groups of the posting, the task counter in the header is now updated correctly again.
