Managing users
Once a user is active in Lever, you can manage their user profile by clicking their name in the Users list. In the user profile editor, you can modify the user's information (including linking their user profile to an existing candidate profile), access level, permissions, and followed postings.
To deactivate a user, click the ellipses points aligned to the right of their name in the Users list and click Deactivate User. The user will be moved to the Deactivated Users section of your Users list (from which they can be reactivated, if needed).
Best practices for adding and managing users
Abiding by the following best practices will help to ensure a smoother user management experience.
Add all of your organization's employees to Lever
We recommend adding everyone in your organization to Lever with at least Interviewer level access so they can easily refer candidates and assist in the hiring process where needed.
|
|
If your organization uses G Suite or Office 365 and has single sign-on enabled for Lever, anyone within your organization's email domain (e.g., @company.com) can log in at hire.lever.co with Interviewer level access. Until their access is upgraded by a Super Admin or Admin, they will only have access to the Interviews page in Lever, from which they can submit referrals and interview feedback. |
Restrict Super Admin access to a single user
Given the complete degree of control associated with this role, we recommend that only one person at an organization be set-up with this level of access - typically a Talent Leader or someone with operational responsibilities.
