LOGGING IN TO YOUR ADMIN PORTAL

The Admin portal utilizes a separate username and password from the employee portal which will be supplied by HR. You will also need the Client Code (below).

Paycom Client Code: 0EB86   <--first character is a zero
Main Admin Portal Link: https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/cl/cl-login.php
 
Once you log into the Admin portal for the first time, you are able to navigate back and forth between your Employee Self Service (ESS) and the Admin portal:
From ESS, click the person icon in the upper right corner then click the link next to "Manager."
From the Admin portal, click the ESS LOGIN link from the small list of links in the upper right.

 

RECRUITING DASHBOARD under TALENT ACQUISITION

 

ACCESSING APPLICANTS

  1. From the Recruiter Dashboard, you should see an Open Requisitions list on the right, just below the header.
  2. To view Applications, just click the number link above the word Applications.
  3. Remove "Completed Applications" filter as noted below.


IMPORTANT: MAKE THIS CHANGE TO BE SURE YOU'RE SEEING ALL APPLICANTS

Click the "X" next to COMPLETED APPLICATIONS to see ALL applications (see graphic below)

REVIEW BOTH "completed" and "incomplete" applications. "Incomplete" just indicates the application was added using a "quick apply" feature in Indeed. 

 
 

ORGANIZING APPLICATIONS

 

Paycom provides multiple options but this is the most common and suggested way of organizing your applications so everyone that is reviewing applications can see progress.

 

USE THE FLAG FUNCTION

Upon review, assign a flag color to the application:

  • RED - Does not meet minimum qualifications
  • YELLOW - Meets minimum qualifications but may or may not be one of the most qualified candidates
  • GREEN - Exceeds minimum qualifications and appears to be worth further consideration


HOW TO ASSIGN A FLAG



FLAG COLORS ALSO SHOW ON THE APPLICATION LIST:

So you know which applications have been reviewed and which haven't. Optionally, you may also use the "star" rating system to help organize applications.
