This checklist covers all the essential steps to help you hit the ground running and get the most out of the SCALIS platform.
Step 1. Getting Started with Your Account 💻
- Log in and create your account to SCALIS via your Workspace Invite
- Invite additional team members and assign them Organization Roles.
- Learn the difference between Org Level Roles and Job Level Roles [here]
- Connect your Calendar via Calendar Settings (Gmail or Outlook)
- Set up interview scheduling & scheduler link preferences (Calendar sync)
💡Important: To schedule interviews or send scheduler links on behalf of another user, they must first log in and connect their calendar.
Step 2. Company Setup 🏢
- Upload your logo, name, and company address
- Create Offices & Departments to match your organization’s structure.
- Set default “About Us” statements + EEO, Diversity & Benefits disclosures for all job posts via Global Listing Setup.
- Set Global Screening Questions to auto-apply across all job listings
- Host your Careers Page with us or Embed It right on your site
🔥 Hot Tip: Use Global Screening Questions to auto-filter must-haves (like location or sponsorship). Then, set up reason-specific rejection emails to keep candidates informed and your process transparent.
