Recruitment steps

Watch the video: New pilots and pilot records

Recruitment steps give new applications a path of your own before you approve them: for example an entry exam, then a checkride, then a welcome call. Turn them on under Staff › Airline settings › Optional features › Recruitment steps, then set the steps under Staff › People › Recruitment (with the "Approve or decline applications" permission).

Setting the steps

Add up to 10 steps, in order. Each step is one of:

• Written exam: one of your written exams (with Exams on). The applicant takes it on your airline's page while they wait, before they're a member.
• Checkride: with checkrides with an examiner on. Staff arrange it with the applicant.
• A step with a note: anything else, like "Welcome call on Discord".

The note is shown to the applicant at that step. Use the arrows to change the order. Deleting a step sends applications at it back to the first step.

Moving an application on

A new application starts at step 1. In Staff › Review queue, each application shows Step 1 of 3 with the step's name (and, for an exam, whether the applicant passed it). Press Next step to move it on:

• the move is in the activity log;
• the applicant gets an email with the new step (unless they turned off reminder emails);
• the applicant sees their step on your airline's page.

After the last step, press Approve as usual. Approve and Reject work at any step, exactly as without steps.

With the switch off, or no steps set, applications work as before.
