From Monday, 5 August a new training course will be introduced as part of essential training for all colleagues who need to use Jobtrain, the University’s recruitment and applicant tracking system. 

What’s new? 

The short course will provide those involved in recruitment with an understanding of the basic functions of the Jobtrain system and how it's used as part of the recruitment process at the University..  This ensures that when recruiting you are best placed to have as smooth a recruitment process as possible and support an excellent candidate experience for new colleagues.  

What will I do differently? 

The course will be essential and a link to complete it will be issued by the Recruitment team, to colleagues requesting a new Jobtrain user account. Once the course has been completed, along with GDPR training, you’ll be asked to send a notification to the Recruitment team, who’ll issue your Jobtrain log in.  

If you have members in your team that are involved in the recruitment process, please cascade this message to them for their awareness to complete the course. 

When does this happen?  

From Monday, 5 August. 

Will I need further training?  

No, the course is self-led and will link to the existing training materials (guides and videos) for each of the recruitment steps. This course has been developed to support new users of Jobtrain, or anyone new to recruiting or new to recruiting at University of Manchester.  

How do I access the training course? 

You can access the Recruitment system training course  by visiting An Introduction to Jobtrain.  

I’ve already got a Jobtrain log in but would like a refresher. 

If you are an existing Jobtrain user and looking for a refresher or about to start recruiting, you might also find it useful to complete the course. This won’t be essential for anyone that’s already got Jobtrain access, but if you’d like to refresh your knowledge you can access the course via this link - An Introduction to Jobtrain. 

Where do I go for help?  

For any questions or support please contact the Recruitment team on 0161 275 5973 or at people.recruitment@manchester.ac.uk
