Collaborative hiring, team & access

Bring the right people into the decision without opening every role to everyone.

Set who administers the account, assign role-scoped teammates to the jobs they own, and let authorised hiring teams review evidence, update stages, and leave internal comments within live access boundaries.

  • Account-wide or role-scoped responsibility
  • Per-role Hiring Team assignments
  • Feature access within subscription limits
  • Internal comments, attachments, and stage actions

Customer perspective from the wider Skill Society workflow

Shared standards matter when hiring decisions involve more than one person.

The Skills Society AI Interview Agent is a fantastic tool—not only for saving time, but also for establishing consistent and fair recruitment standards.

How collaborative hiring access works

Set responsibility once. Let every teammate work inside a clear lane.

Separate account administration from day-to-day hiring, then combine role assignment and eligible feature access to control what each teammate can see and do.

In the Administrator-only Team & Access workspace, classify people who have already joined the account as Administrators or role-scoped Members. Administrators manage the account and automatically access every active role; Members need explicit assignments.

Account settings and permission management stay with Administrators instead of becoming part of every hiring manager's workspace.

Account responsibility

Step 01
Team and Access user cards showing Administrator, role-scoped member, active, and inactive account states

Each existing account user has one clear account level, active state, and summary of the hiring work available to them.

Share the hiring work—not the entire account.

Skill Society combines live role assignments and eligible feature permissions so the team can collaborate without weakening account boundaries.

Questions, answered

Questions before you open hiring access

These answers reflect the team, role, feature, and candidate-collaboration boundaries currently shipped in Skill Society.

Can I invite new users from Team & Access?

No. Team & Access manages people who have already joined the same Skill Society account. It does not currently include a user invitation flow.

What is the difference between an Administrator and a role-scoped Member?

Administrators can access every active role and manage account settings, permissions, role configuration, and other Administrator-only actions. A role-scoped Member can view and operate only assigned active roles, subject to any separate feature permissions and the account subscription.

Can a Member be assigned to more than one hiring role?

Yes. An Administrator can assign an active Member to multiple active roles from Team & Access or from each role's Hiring Team panel. The Member's Jobs and Recent Activity views are filtered to those accessible roles.

Can we control individual feature access?

Yes, for eligible delegated features. Administrators can use reviewer, hiring-manager, or recruiter presets and then adjust each Member's available view or operate capability. The account subscription remains the maximum, and role access and feature access are enforced independently.

Can we choose permissions page by page?

No. The current interface assigns roles and eligible feature capabilities, not a literal checklist of pages. Available pages and actions are derived from central Administrator, role, and feature rules so the interface and server enforcement use the same access model.

Can teammates leave notes on candidates?

Yes. Authorised teammates can add internal comments to an accessible candidate application, associate them with the pre-qualification or assessment stage, and include supported attachments. Comments show their author and time and are never sent to the candidate.

How quickly does access revocation take effect?

Role assignments and removals are read live from the database. A removed Member is blocked on the next request, including direct role URLs and candidate mutations, without waiting for their login token to refresh.

Can the last Administrator remove their own access?

No. An Administrator cannot demote or deactivate themselves from their own controls, and the permission rules prevent an account from losing its final active Administrator. Another Administrator must make an allowed access-level change.
