Create an Opportunity

The first step in the opportunity lifecycle is to create an opportunity.

When creating an opportunity, you’ll select a job to create an opportunity for, and then fill out information on the following tabs:
  • Select Job Tab - select a Job to create an Opportunity. The list of available jobs is imported from the Jobs business rule in the UKG Pro solution.
  • Select Position Tab - available only for those using the Position Automation feature. Select a Position (configured in the UKG Pro solution) to link it to an Opportunity. If you do not wish to associate a Position to a Job, you can Skip & Continue.
  • Opportunity Information Tab - configure the opportunity title and description, and the work experience, education, license, certification, and skill requirements.
  • Opening Information Tab - configure information about the opening, such as continuous opening, budgeted FTE, maximum headcount, details about the opening and incumbent, and justification comments.
  • Screening Tab - configure candidate availability, screening questions, and assessment packages.
  • Company Information Tab - configure information about the company, such as company, location, and org levels.
  • Compensation Tab - configure compensation information, such as employee type, full or part-time, salary or hourly, and salary. 
  • Recruiting Processes Tab - configure the opportunity contacts, recruiting process, and approvals.

If the Recruiting solution is integrated with the UKG Pro solution, many the fields are pre-populated with values from the UKG Pro solution, but they can be modified, if needed.

Important:

If your organization uses the Position Automation feature, modifying the default values in the Recruiting solution may cause issues when completing the hire in the UKG Pro solution.

Navigation: UKG Pro Recruiting > Opportunities
  1. From the Opportunities page, select Create.
  2. From the Select Job tab, select a job.

    Note:

    The list of available jobs is imported from the Jobs business rule in the UKG Pro solution. If your organization uses the Position Automation feature the Positions are imported from the Position Automation feature in the UKG Pro solution. To create an Opportunity for a job that is not in the list, you must create a new job code in the UKG Pro solution.

  3. Select Continue to continue editing the opportunity.
    Select one of the help topics below for help with configuring the remaining tabs.
