The drag-and-drop function in PI Hire allows you to override the Job Target for a given role.

Note: Drag-and-drop is intended for rare cases where added precision is critical for your Job Target.

How to use the drag-and-drop feature

  1. Log in to PI Hire.
  2. Select a job from the Hiring Center.
  3. In the Job Target field, select Manually Override.
  4. Use your cursor to “grab” and adjust the target as desired.

As you drag the cursor, the descriptions will change based on the adjustments to the target. 

When you drop the target, enable the Save Changes button in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Click Save Changes to confirm the new Job Target.

Back in the Job Target field, you will see a note with an asterisk confirming the change you have made (e.g., *This factor has been modified*). 

An asterisk will also appear next to the corresponding row for the adjusted factor.

How to create your own job target

  1. Go to the Hiring Center.
  2. In the left-hand panel, under Create new benchmark, select Create your own.
  3. In the Create your own field, select the characteristics you think are most critical to success for this job.
  4. Select Save and Continue.

Back in the Job Target field, you will see a note with an asterisk confirming the change you have made (e.g., *This factor has been modified*). 

An asterisk will also appear next to the corresponding row for the adjusted factor.
