Talent Selection Stages – Orgvue Knowledge Base

Talent Selection Selection Stages

Throughout the talent selection process, you will map employees to positions and define the stage of the selection process in which that employee-position connection, or link, sits. In this article, we will define those selection stages that you will assign to each employee-position link and the use case for each.

As you map employees to positions throughout the talent selection process, simply connecting or linking the two is not enough; you must also indicate the stage of the process in which that link sits. For example, if the employee is being considered as a candidate for the position, you would want to indicate that by assigning the “slated” stage. Once that employee is selected as the final choice to fill the position, however, you would want to update the link to the “selected” stage. It is important to note the depending on which perspective you are looking at the links from – employees of positions – each stage has a slightly different meaning. In the table below, we define each stage from both the employee and position perspective.

Stages

Selection Stage	Position Definition	Employee Definition
Out of Scope	Is out of scope for the process	Is out of scope for the process
Unassigned	Does not have any candidates identified	Is not identified as a potential candidate for any open positions
Slated	Has at least one slated candidate	Is slated as a potential candidate for a position
Selected	Has a selected candidate	Is selected for a position
Confirmed	Has a confirmed position holder	Is confirmed for a position
Selection Error	Has an incorrectly assigned candidate	Is incorrectly assigned to a position
Not Selected	N/A	Employee was not selected for that position and can be slated and selected for other positions
In Exit Process	N/A	Employee will not be selected for a future position and starts the exit process

It is important to note that while the defined selection stages are the standard Orgvue stages, they can be customized to fit your organization’s unique requirements.
