Adding Approvers and Reviewers to Job Openings and Job Offers in TAM

Overview

Once a Job Opening or Job Offer has been saved and submitted, you can add or remove job opening approvers or reviewers on the Approvers tab.

Process Considerations:

  • Inserted Approvers and Reviewers must also be added on the Job Opening Assignments page in the Interested Party section (if they are not already on the Assignments page in a different capacity). After being added to the Assignments page a provisioning process must run before they will have access to the Job Opening. This process runs automatically 5 times daily; 12:30 a.m., 10:00 a.m., 12:30 p.m., 3:00 p.m. and evenings at approximately 8:10 p.m.
