Common questions about this template
What should a job requisition form include?
Include requester, department, role title, employment type, hiring manager, justification, headcount approval reference, approvers, attachments, requisition status, blocked reason, recruiting handoff, and closeout notes.
How is this different from a headcount request form?
A headcount request confirms capacity and budget approval first. A job requisition form captures the specific role-opening request and approval trail after that upstream decision is ready.
Does this manage candidates or job applications?
No. It covers internal role-opening intake and handoff readiness only. Candidate, application, interview, and recruiting pipeline work should remain in the appropriate recruiting process.
Can the approval and handoff workflow be customized?
Yes. Teams can adjust fields, statuses, approver routing, dashboards, reminders, attachments, and handoff steps in Jodoo App Builder.
