Vacancies

The Vacancies page displays a list of all vacancies associated with the requests to which you have access once the designated filters have been applied. Once a new vacancy request type is approved, the vacancy is created. To access this page, click the Vacancies tab on the Dashboard. When you arrive to the Vacancies page for the first time in a session, your drawer will appear with the default filters (User logged in and Active) are displayed in emboldened font to show that they deviate from being set to “All”.
