Changelog

Multiple organizations

A Wrk user account can now be a member of multiple organizations. Previously, a user account could only be associated with a single organization. This change enables a user to be involved with hiring efforts across multiple organizations without having to create multiple accounts. Additionally, this provides larger organizations the option of splitting into multiple sub-organizations, each with their own job board.

The organization switcher can be accessed from the user menu in the top-right corner of the app. Opening the organization switcher will display a list of all organizations you have access to. You can select an organization to view, accept invitations, or create new organizations.

Slack integration

An integration has been added that allows you to notify a channel within your organizations Slack workspace whenever a new job application is received. The full candidate application is displayed, making it easy to review and discuss.

This can be setup within the Integrations section found in Account Settings. Our setup documentation walks through the entire process.

Notification hub improvements

Multiple performance improvements have been made to the notification hub that will result in faster load times when a large quantity of notifications exist. Additionally, notification counts have been added to show the number of unread notifications that exist for each type.

Email notification preferences

You can now manage email notifications by type. Emails for new candidate applications, new comments or reviews, and new messages from candidates can all be enabled and disabled individually, giving you more control over the types of notifications you receive. This can be configured from within the preferences section of account settings.

Job salary/wage

You now have the ability add a job's salary or wage information within job details. This information can be entered as a fixed amount or as a range. Multiple compensation timeframes are supported as well, ranging from hourly to yearly. If salary or wage information is provided, it will be displayed at the top of the job post with the other job traits.

Other improvements & fixes

• Our Google Jobs integration now supports their salary and direct apply features
• A confirmation modal has been added when archiving a job
• A new employment type of "volunteer" has been added as an option in job settings
• Fixed an issue that prevented the application form from displaying correctly when previewing a hidden job

Candidate files

A new files section has been added under each candidate. This new section exists as single location for all the files that may pertain to a candidate during the hiring process. This includes any files that the candidate supplied with their application, files that have been received as message attachments, and up to 10 additional files, which can be uploaded directly by members of the hiring team.

Other fixes

• Fixed an issue that could prevent a user from creating a new subscription after having canceled one previously

Anonymize candidate

Features have been added that allow you to anonymize candidates by removing personally identifying information from an application. This can be performed from within the three-dot dropdown menu within a candidate profile. When a candidate is anonymized, all occurences of their name is removed, their resumes are deleted, and all their contact information is deleted.

Additionally, candidates have the ability to request that their information be removed. Upon submitting a request, the hiring team will be notified that the candidate profile should be anonymized.

Discord integration

An integration has been added that allows you to notify a channel within your organizations Discord server whenever a new job application is received. The full candidate application is displayed, making it easy to review and discuss.

This can be setup within the Integrations section found in Account Settings. Our setup documentation walks through the entire process.

Hired stage

A "hired" stage has been added to all jobs allowing you to track and record which candidates were hired into roles.

Job board SEO settings

You can now edit your job board's title and description meta tags. These tags are used by search engines, social media sites, and other services when displaying links to your job board.

Overview and messages visibility

We added the ability to set the overview and messages feed of individual candidates to be visible to admins only. This can be set within application settings when editing a candidates profile.

Other improvements

• Application forms now have a single name field to be more inclusive of various formats

Improvements & fixes

• Improved how the Webflow CMS integration handles job category syncing
• Added a button on the hiring team page that enables an admin to quickly "remove all non-admins" from a hiring team
• Added the ability for a user to delete comments and reviews they authored on a candidate's overview page
• The "notes" section has been renamed to "private notes" for increased clarity

Improvements & fixes

• Added fields within candidate profiles to record desired salary and application source
• Fixed an issue where applications could potentially be submitted without values in required fields

Candidate activity feed

Previously, each candidate had a view that displayed their answers to any custom questions that had been added to the application form. With this update, this view has been built out to become a full feed of all actions regarding a candidate. The candidate activity is displayed as a timeline that starts with their initial application and lists other, subsequent events that have taken place. This view provides a high level view of the overall candidate experience and helps facilitate coordination within the hiring team.

Team comments

Hiring team members have the ability to add comments to the candidate activity feed to document events, provide insight, share thoughts, and other purposes. Comments that are posted to a candidate’s activity feed are visible by the entire hiring team. Additionally, we added a C keyboard shortcut for opening the comment modal from anywhere within a candidate profile.

Candidate reviews

Reviews can be posted to a candidates activity feed. Reviews, while similar to comments, include the additional ability to provide a final score for the candidate. Additionally, when conducting a candidate review, a full-screen view is provided to enable the user to focus on the task, easily view candidate information, format the document using our full text-editor, and save in-progress drafts.

Review templates

Templates have been added to enable hiring team admins to encourage structured feedback when team members conduct a candidate review. They are general purpose and can be used to create a library of review instructions, question sets, feedback prompts, and other content. When a team member conducts a candidate review, they have the ability to import templates into their feedback document. When imported, the templated content is inserted into their review and available for additional editing.

Private notes

There is now a notes page within each candidate profile where a user can record private notes that will not be shared with the hiring team.

Other improvements & fixes

• Adjustments of dark mode colors to reduce contrast
• Text within resumes is now selectable
• Labels have been added to differentiate candidates who applied vs those who were manually added
• The shared hiring document has been moved to the candidate overview section
• Added an H keyboard shortcut for editing the shared hiring document

Dark mode

Wrk now has a full dark theme in addition to the pre-existing light variant. By default, the active theme in Wrk will be synced with your browser settings. You can specify a theme from the preferences page within account settings to override the default syncing behavior.

Other fixes

• Fixed an issue where application questions could appear out of order for a candidate within a cloned job
• Fixed an issue where the ordering of hiring stages could not be changed within a cloned job

Improvements & fixes

• Improved the styling of navigation links
• Added some minimal light and dark styling based off a users current system settings
• Added the ability to view an original incoming email from the in-app candidate message feed
• Fixed an issue where dismissing a modal could interfere with navigation

Improvements & fixes

• Improved performance of the "dismiss all" and "mark all as read" functionality on the notifications page
• Invited organization members are no longer required to create an account directly from the email invitation to be added within the organization

Small screen support

We greatly improved how Wrk displays on mobile devices and small screens.

Move candidate

You can now move a candidate from one job to another. When a candidate is moved, the application is completely removed from the current job and added to the destination job. Previously a candidate could only be cloned into a different job, preserving the original application.

Other improvements & fixes

• Improved performance of the notifications page
• Added an F keyboard shortcut for opening candidate search
• Added the ability to drag-and-drop a resume to upload it when one doesn't exist within a candidate profile

Additional candidate links

We have added support for additional, default fields for easily collecting common URLs on job applications. The options now include: Linkedin, GitHub, Dribbble, Twitter, and personal website.

Other improvements

• We've redesigned the add/edit candidate form to handle additional fields

Job board custom domains

By default, all Wrk job boards live at jobs.wrk.xyz. However, if you have another domain you would like to use, you can now configure your job board to be displayed there as well. This allows you to treat your Wrk job board as an extension of your website. View the setup guide to get started.

Improvements & fixes

• Added visual affordances to links that open in a new tab
• Changed references of "company" to "organization"
• Job board settings have been spereated into multiple categories for better organization
• Increased the size of the logo on job boards
• Organization-specific job board favicons are now generated when a logo is uploaded

Job board subscriptions

Prospective candidates and other visitors can now subscribe to individual job boards. When an organization publishes a job, an email is automatically sent to all their subscribers, notifying them about the new job opening.
