Confidential Jobs, Field Fixes, DIY Sites & AI Tips | SAI iCIMS Weekly Recap 4/11/25

Another insightful System Admin Insights session in the books! Here’s what stood out to our group of iCIMS system administrators this week: 🔔 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘀 Michelle Braunschweig, Greg Mendez , and Michael Yates all highlighted a critical system insight—event notifications in iCIMS are capped at 25 per profile. Also, with help from iCIMS custom support, these can be tailored using search templates for more refined triggers. Just be careful—this is a powerful feature that can create unintended noise if misconfigured. 📍 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 Natalie Duncan and Vivian Larsen reminded us that location profiles aren’t just for physical locations. They’re a smart way to manage datasets, like divisions or agencies, using folders as a centralized hub. A great strategy for reducing redundancy and keeping data clean. 🧠 𝗔𝗜-𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Vivian and Kaitlyn Faile, HRIP explored the unsettling realism of AI-generated podcast dialogue. Using tools like Notebook LM, we listened to an AI-simulated discussion based on a System Admin Insights transcript. The conversation had human-like inflections, pauses, even speakers talking over each other, prompting a broader reflection on critical thinking in the age of hashtag#AI. 💡 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 Michael also gave a shout-out to Kaitlyn for her collaboration on resolving incomplete applicant records, showing how hands-on troubleshooting and peer insight can lead to real results. These sessions are where shared curiosity meets practical systems knowledge.

Event Notification Limits, Location Profiles & AI Voices?! | SAI iCIMS Weekly Recap 4/18/25

We had another insightful System Admin Insights session last Friday, and as always, the #iCIMS community brought the wisdom! Here’s a snapshot of what we learned: 🔐 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝘂𝗹𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 Jessica Juarez left inspired to dig deeper into their system’s security rules—a frequently overlooked feature that can seriously strengthen your platform’s integrity when configured well. 📬 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼-𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆𝘀 Greg Mendez shared a smart workaround: instead of manually distributing surveys, trigger them with event notifications for timely, fresh feedback from candidates. Small change, big impact! 🧪 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 Greg also raved about the value of the Secret Candidate Experience. If you haven’t run one yet, trust us—you will learn something surprising (and actionable) about your application process. 📁 𝗕𝘂𝗹𝗸 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲: 𝗔𝗣𝗜 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Natalie Duncan walked us through a real client solution: extracting multiple candidate documents via API and routing them through a data warehouse to produce one clean package in iCIMS, giving hiring managers a smoother experience without relying on manual bulk print. 🤖 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗽𝗽 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 Kaitlyn Faile, HRIP shared her journey building an AI-driven app with no coding background, just chat-based iteration and refinement. The key? System Admins are close enough to the work to build useful tools, then hand them off to devs for polish. Empowering and efficient! 🎯 Want in?

Event Notification-Based Surveys, Secret Candidates & AI App Building | SAI iCIMS Recap 3/28/25

We had a great System Admin Insights session last Friday, as always! Here are some of our takeaways we wanted to share with the #iCIMS community: 📅 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 A great tip from Natalie Duncan: When using iCIMS self-scheduling tool, you don't need to generate tokens for every user in the platform. You can create tokens only for actual interviewers. 🔄 𝗖𝗫𝗠 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Paul Day highlighted how CXM's built-in workflows can help overcome CRM automation limitations, providing stronger automation capabilities for teams facing these challenges. 🌱 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 Vivian Larsen discovered that most teams handle evergreen requisitions similarly—starting with a sourcing requisition before opening a hiring requisition, with only minor variations in approach. 🤖 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 I shared a demonstration of ChatGPT autonomously applying for a fake position on Greg Mendez' career site as part of our Secret Candidate Experience. Most concerning: while creating a burner email account, it defeated the "Are you human?" test designed to differentiate humans based on mouse movement patterns. This highlights the importance of understanding emerging technologies both to expand our capabilities and mitigate potential risks! ⚠️ 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀 The conversation also touched on the serious threat of "ransomware farms" using fake job applications as a vector to gain access to company systems and login information.
