🚀 What's New
What is the improvement?
- Radius-Independent Job Matching: WorkN now supports job orders that can ignore location radius as a matching criteria, enabling customers to reach qualified talent regardless of their geographic location.
- Flexible Job Configuration: A new job-level attribute allows customers to toggle radius-based matching on or off for individual job orders, providing granular control over talent matching logic.
- Enhanced Remote & Travel Opportunities: This functionality is specifically designed to support remote work positions, travel nursing assignments, and other opportunities where physical proximity isn't a requirement.
- Universal Job Type Support: The radius override capability works across all job order types - bundled, unbundled, and unbundled adhoc job orders.
Why did we do this?
- Expanded Talent Access: Traditional radius-based matching limited customers to local talent pools, which isn't suitable for remote work or travel positions that can draw from a national or global workforce.
- Industry-Specific Needs: Travel nursing, remote technology roles, and consulting positions often require talent from outside the immediate geographic area, making location-based filtering counterproductive.
- Competitive Advantage: Customers can now access the full breadth of qualified talent in their marketplace, potentially improving job fill rates and reducing time-to-hire for specialized or remote positions.
- Operational Flexibility: Different jobs within the same marketplace may have different location requirements - this feature allows customers to optimize matching logic on a per-job basis rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
How does this impact you?
- You can now post remote work opportunities and travel positions that will be visible to all qualified talent regardless of their location, significantly expanding your potential candidate pool.
- Each job order can be configured independently - use traditional radius-based matching for local positions while ignoring radius for remote or travel opportunities within the same marketplace.
- You'll notice expanded candidate matching when viewing qualified talent for jobs configured with radius override enabled.
- This flexibility allows you to optimize your recruitment strategy based on the specific requirements of each position rather than marketplace-wide settings.
Availability/Impact:
- Configuration and setup require a support ticket to be submitted for implementation. Once configured, the radius override setting can be applied at the individual job order level.
