Data Templates - Recruitments

When you create a job vacancy you must add info about the vessel, budget and contract and your requirements. These are in a Data Template.

This means you need to create a Data Template before you create a new job vacancy. BUT you only need to create each Data Template once: when you create a vacancy, select the relevant Data Template.

Data Templates are also filled in is slightly differently, depending whether they're for a Recruitment or an Assignment. The difference is:

Recruitments: created to add seafarers to the database so you can potentially hire them in the future.

Assignments: created to hire a seafarer for a contract on a vessel at a set date. Click here to read about creating Data Templates for Assignments.
