            Frequently Asked Questions  Version 8 - 201701 

Hiring Manager 

What if my applicant doesn’t have an email address?  ● ●

If your applicant does not have an email address, a free account may be obtained through  Gmail, Yahoo, etc.   We provide a link on the application’s Let’s get started page that will direct any applicant who  does not have an email address to sign up for a Gmail account if they need to create one. 

How long will it take my candidate to complete the application process?  ● ●

On average, the full application can take up to 35 minutes to complete.   However, if a candidate has previously completed the PeopleAnswers behavioral assessment  over the past two (2) years, they will not be asked to answer the statements again and the  average time reduces to 10 to 15 minutes. 

Can the applicants see their assessment score after they submit the application?  ●

●

●

No. Once an applicant completes their application, they are not given the results of their  assessment.   ○ The reason for this is due to the way the assessment is scored.   ○ An applicant answers the assessment questions once within a two (2) year  timeframe.   ○ Depending on the position and industry they apply to, the results will change to  display a new score that is relevant to that position and company.  For example, an applicant may score a red when applying to a front of house position in the  full service restaurant industry, however, when they apply for a back of house position they  may score a yellow or green.   Since there are no right or wrong answers and the assessment is meant to give the results  based on potential behavioral/personality �t in a position, it is recommended that you do not  share the results with the applicant. 

When you decline an applicant in the system, do they receive notification?  ●

●

By default, we do not notify candidates when they are declined. However, this is a setting we  are able to add to your account if your Company Administrator elects to use this automatic  noti�cation.  If your company has opted in for the auto decline email noti�cation and you decline them in  the system, they will receive an email thanking them for applying to your company but letting  them know that their application is no longer being considered. 

How do we know if our company has opted in for the auto decline email notification?  ●

If you’re interested in knowing, you can contact your Company Administrator.

            Frequently Asked Questions  Version 8 - 201701  ●

If you are the Company Administrator and aren’t sure if you opted in for this noti�cation, you  can contact Customer Support ([email protected]) to �nd out. 

If you decline an applicant, can you retrieve the application at a later date?  ● ●

Yes! Declined applicants are located in the Declined hiring status folder in the Applicants tab.  If you are looking for a declined applicant that applied more than 365 days ago, please  contact Customer Support ([email protected]) to retrieve it. 

  Is there a specific time frame for “morning”, “afternoon” or “evening” on the availability grid?  ● Our availability grid is meant to give you the overall ꣦�exibility of the candidate’s schedule so  there are not speci�c times associated with morning, afternoon or evening.  ● Speci�c shifts or time frames may be discussed during the hiring process. 

How long does an application remain in the Applicants tab?  ● ●

You will have access to view your applications within the Applicants tab for 365 days after  the applied date.  To retrieve an application that is older than 365 days, you may contact Customer Support  ([email protected]). 

Once an application is transferred, does all of the information, including the Notes tab, go with it?  ●

Yes, everything from that application will be moved over to the other location’s Applicants tab,  including any notes added to their application.  

Can I modify my employee’s record after they’ve been hired?  ● ●

●

Yes! To modify your employee’s record, you’ll �rst need to locate their name in the Employees  tab.  You’ll then click on the employee’s name and click the edit button located on the Employee  details tab.   ○ This will allow you to modify the Employee details information.  Once you’ve made the changes, click Save at the bottom right corner and the employee’s  information will be updated.

     1-Click Apply 

Do you offer 1-Click Apply applications in Spanish?  ●

Not currently. 

Can you explain Profile Search and its benefits?  ● ●

●

Pro�le Search lets you take matters into your own hands.  When you post your open position, you’ll see candidates who’ve applied for similar jobs in the  last 60 days. Instead of waiting for them to apply, you can connect with the workers you think  would be right for you. You’ll be able to look at their pro�les and see quali�cations, availability,  work history, and education. Sort through pro�les and when you see a candidate you like,  invite them to apply for your job.  Pro�le Search helps beat low application ꣦�ow and �nd quality workers in hard-to-�ll markets.  

Can you invite more than one potential candidate at a time?  ●

Unfortunately, we do not currently offer a feature to mass invite potential candidates.  

What users display in Profile Search?  ● ●

Pro�les displayed are based on Snagajob users that have activity within the last 60 days on  Snagajob.com, applied to a job within the industry, and close proximity to the location.  Note: Applicants with the most recent activity and/or most complete pro�les are pushed to  the top of the list.

            Frequently Asked Questions  Version 8 - 201701 

Why can I not post new job openings in my account?  ●

Your account may be set up so that only Company Administrators have the ability to post new  positions for your organization.  ○

Contact your Company Administrator for more information. 

    Onboarding 

Do we need to print and file a hard copy of the I-9 and other documents?  ● ●

With your Snagajob Onboarding system, you no longer need to print and �le your employees’  documents.   All of the forms are securely kept within your account and you can access any time you need  them. 

Does the system let you know when I-9’s expire?  ●

●

Yes! If an employee has a document that needs to be re-veri�ed on the I-9, his/her name will  display in the Actions required section on the Incomplete paperwork widget on the  Dashboard 30 days prior to the document expiration.   This will give you time to receive the new form of identi�cation from the employee and enter  the information on the I-9 form. 

What if there is a mistake on the I-9?  ●

If there is incorrect information or a mistake on the I-9, an Administrator at your company has  the ability to edit the Form I-9.   ○ If the mistake is on Section 1 of the I-9, the employee will need to re-sign the  document.  ○ If the mistake is on Section 2 of the I-9, the administrator can re-enter the information  and re-sign the I-9.  ○ Note: If you are participating in E-Verify through the Snagajob system, this updated  I-9 will not run through E-Verify. 

Once the employee is hired, can they change payment options or direct deposit information on this site?  ● ●

The Snagajob Onboarding system is designed to capture onboarding information for new  employees and does not currently allow for updates made to payment options.  If your employee needs to update their payment option or direct deposit information, that will  need to be changed in your payroll system directly.

No. E-Verify should be run on newly hired employees only, unless you are a federal contractor  rewarded federal contract on or after September 8th, 2009 that contains the Federal  Acquisition Regulation (FAR) E-Verify clause.

            Frequently Asked Questions  Version 8 - 201701 

What is a TNC?  ●

●

A TNC or Tentative Noncon�rmation is an interim case result that indicates a discrepancy  between the information on the employee’s Form I-9 and information on �le at the SSA and/or  DHS.  If a new hire receives a TNC result, he/she must be given the opportunity to contest that result  by contacting the appropriate agency within 8 federal government workdays. 

What if the employee doesn’t contact the SSA or DHS in 8 federal workdays after receiving a TNC?  ● ●

If the employee fails to contact the appropriate agency within 8 federal workdays after being  referred to the DHS or SSA, the case will result in a DHS No Show or Final Noncon�rmation.   At this point the new hire’s employment may be terminated. 

     Tax Credit Screening 

When do the candidates complete the tax credit questionnaire?  ●

●

The candidate is given the tax credit questionnaire during the application process.  ○ The candidate can choose to complete the questions or opt out of this process during  the pre-hire phase.  ■ If the candidate opts out, they will be asked to complete the questionnaire  once they are hired at your company.  The questionnaire takes anywhere from 30 seconds to two minutes of the candidate’s time  and the credit information will be available to you once the applicant is hired as an employee  at your company.
