What is a Single Use link and how do I create one in TalentCentral™?

You can create Single Use links when you know who your candidates are but also when you don’t yet have your candidate’s details.
 
If you want candidates to be able to self-register for a test, you can create a project and enable the Multiple Use Link option in the Candidate section. Learn how to create a Multiple Use link
 
 
Create a Single Use link – Known Candidates
 
Create a project as you normally would, entering all the required fields. Learn how to create a project
 
Under Candidates* (for new projects) or Add Candidates (for existing projects) you will see an Add individual candidates section. 
 
At a minimum, you will need to add an Email address* and make sure you select the correct Language option but, if you have your candidate’s details, it is recommended that you enter them as you create the link. If you do not fill in the First Name and Last Name fields then your candidate will be prompted to complete these fields when they first log in.
 
Once you have filled in all the details, click on +Add to create a Single Use link, which will appear under the Candidates added to the project section below. Once you have finished adding all of your candidates to the project, click on Create Project (for new projects) or Update Project (for existing projects).
 
Your Single Use links will be generated and automatically sent to your candidates once you have published, or updated, your project.
 
 
Create a Single Use link – Unknown Candidates
 
Create a project as you normally would, entering all the required fields. Learn how to create a project
 
Under Candidates* (for new projects) or Add Candidates (for existing projects) you will see an Add individual unknown candidates section where you can enter the number of candidates you want Single Use links for.
 
Work through all the remaining sections of the project setup. When you are satisfied that all the choices on your project are correct, click on Create Project (for new projects) or Update Project (for existing projects). When the confirmation message is displayed, click on View Project.
 
Click on Manage Candidates to view the Single Use links. 
 
There are two ways you can send out the test links. Once you have your candidate’s details, you can right-click on the Link text and then click Copy Link Address. Paste the test link (using CTRL + V) to an email to your candidate inviting them to complete the test.
 
Alternatively, click on the Edit text to edit the candidate’s Title, First Name, Last Name, Email and the Language of the test. Click on Save then Update Project, which will save the candidate’s details and trigger the standard TalentCentral invitation email to the candidate.
