How to use Connect

HR software

Connect is an all-in-one solution for the recruitment and talent management needs of international schools.

With zero placement fees and unlimited vacancy listings, your subscription price remains the same, whether you recruit 5 staff or 50 through our platform. And with over 240,000 qualified educators on our platform, we can connect you with the best and brightest candidates out there.

In the 10 simple steps listed below, you can create and share vacancies; longlist and shortlist candidates; organise interviews; make offers; decline candidates; archive vacancies; and track your recruitment progress.

 

Step 1. Visit the Connect dashboard

Your Connect dashboard is prioritised to ensure all key activities are easily accessible. From here, you can choose to:

  • Create a vacancy
  • Find a candidate (database access required)
  • View and edit your school profile
  • Manage your Talent Pool

The dashboard also provides access to all your listed vacancies, allowing you to easily find, copy, share, clone, or archive vacancies with just one click.

 

Step 2. Create a vacancy

By clicking the Create a Vacancy button on the dashboard, you will be taken to the Vacancy Details page. Here you will be asked to complete the vacancy information including:

  • Vacancy name and description
  • Specify your criteria for your vacancy (e.g., curriculum experience, qualifications, etc.)
  • Use Schrole’s AI tool to write your job description based on your selected criteria
  • Open, close, and start dates
  • Applicant requirements like qualifications, experience, cover letter, and documentation requirements
  • Use Vacancy Questions to set your pre-qualifying queries
  • Vacancy pathway type

Once published, the vacancy will appear on your school profile page and can easily be edited and shared on other platforms from your dashboard.

 

Step 3. Promote your vacancy

Once a vacancy is created, it is automatically added to your school’s profile page on Connect. Each vacancy also has a publicly accessible URL that allows you to share the vacancy far and wide. Simply click the Share icon and click Copy URL. Voila!

 

Step 4. Longlist your applicants

The longlisting process helps you quickly sort through new applicants and eliminate obviously unsuitable ones, simply click on the green button (for yes) or red button (for no) on the top right-hand side of the applicant blade.

We recommending leaving the first step, Applicants, empty after every review, so you don’t have to view the same candidate twice.

 

Step 5. Shortlist your applicants

The shortlisting process should be approached carefully. Connect profiles provide in-depth information including:

  • Personal details
  • Degrees and registrations
  • Career history
  • Positions sought
  • Housing and visa information
  • References and reference summaries

If you are recruiting as part of a broader team, you may wish to leave notes on each candidate to explain why you decided to shortlist them or to highlight questions you still need to ask. Every recruiter can log as many notes as they like.

 

Step 6. Organise and prepare for interviews

Arranging an interview is quick and easy! Move the candidate to the interview stage of the pipeline, and you’ll automatically be asked if you would like to send a meeting invite. Schrole’s interview scheduler uses an ICS file compatible with most email and calendar programs, including Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, and Apple Calendar. The interview will then take place on the external platform of your choice.

 

Step 7. Make an offer

Once you’ve selected your ideal candidate, transition them into the pre-employment stage. At this point, you can manage your standard hiring processes, including contract preparation.

 

Step 8. Accepted offers

Once a candidate has accepted your offer, whether through Connect or externally, simply move them to the accepted offers stage. Here you’ll have the opportunity to send a customised email.

 

Step 9. Decline candidates

You can easily and quickly decline bulk candidates in specific stages and send a customised, automated email if desired. We always recommend sending an email to let candidates know they have been unsuccessful.

Step 10. Archive your vacancy and track progress

The final step is to archive the vacancy and, if you’d like, add candidates to your talent pool. When archiving, be sure to let us know how and where your vacancy was filled so you can better track your school’s progress over the recruitment season.
