behind the vacancy title in the vacancy overview in the left navigation column.
If the end date is exceeded, the vacancy will no longer be visible on the career site. Therefore, make sure to extend your end date when the exclamation mark is visible.
Closing a vacancy
The vacancy has been successfully filled or there is another reason that you want to close the vacancy. Before closing the vacancy, always make sure that all open actions and applications have been processed. All candidates must have the status “rejected” or “hired”.
To close a vacancy, take the following steps:
1. Go to the vacancy you want to close.
button on the left.
3. You will now be taken to the window where you can edit the vacancy. To close the vacancy you have to adjust two fields, namely: Status and End date.
4. At Status, choose the correct option from the drop-down menu.
5. At End date, choose the date you will close the vacancy (usually today's date). In any case, never put a date in the past here.
at the top or bottom of the page. Now you have closed the vacancy.
The vacancy is still visible in A+ on the end date. You can always find a vacancy that has been closed by going to the relevant department and unchecking
checkbox.
Pay attention! Not every user has the authorization in A+ to edit and close a vacancy. If you do not have this authorization, you will not see the Edit Vacancy button.
Copy vacancy
If you have several of the same vacancies, or want to post a similar vacancy that you have already filled in the past, there is the option to copy a vacancy.
By copying a vacancy you create a new vacancy. Candidate data of the vacancy you copy will not be transferred to the new vacancy. The statistics of the vacancy that is copied are also not included.
It is technically possible to re-post / reopen a closed vacancy. You only use this option if you have unfairly closed a vacancy. For example, when a candidate ultimately decides not to start and you have to continue with the recruitment procedure.
If you want to create a new vacancy with, for example, the same vacancy title, we do not recommend reopening an existing vacancy. This is because the statistics are no longer correct (for example the time-to-hire, always to the disadvantage of the recruiter) and the vacancy is dated, it will not be properly indexed by search engines. In that case always use the copy option.
1. Open the vacancy you want to copy.
2. Click the
button on the left.
3. Then select the location/department where you want to copy the vacancy to. When you have clicked on the location/department, the window for creating a new vacancy will open.
4. All fields, except start date and salary, have been copied and completed. Check all fields and check whether the information contained therein is correct. And change it if necessary.
5. When all fields have been filled in correctly, click on Save in the tab Summary. If you are not sure whether you want to copy this vacancy, you can always click on the Cancel button.
Add new user
Within A+ we work with personal data of people. With regards to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we can therefore not just give everyone access to A+. Within your organization, a person has been appointed who can submit the request to add a new user to us. Usually this is the HR Manager.
You can always ask us who is the appointed person at your organization. Send a message to .
If you want to add a new user, we need the following information: Please also pass this on to the appointed person within your organization when you submit a request for access to A+.

Interview tips
- Prepare the interview well; read the candidate CV carefully and write down your most important questions to the candidate.
- Introduce yourself at the start of the interview, ease any nervousness in the candidate and ask why someone is looking for a new work environment.
- Go through the candidate's (relevant) work experience and assess what he or she has achieved there (this way you know what you want to ask further).
- Ask what someone is most proud of in his or her career; pose follow-up questions and assess whether this matches with the requirements.
- At the end of the interview, indicate your impression and let the candidate know that you/we are interviewing other candidates as well. And, ask what the impression of the candidate is.
- Close the interview and inform the candidate when he or she can expect feedback and what the further course of the procedure will be.
Additional tips
- Pay attention to the candidate's growth and development.
- Make sure you are clear about what someone is saying; otherwise always ask follow-up questions.
- Be critical, does someone answer at the level you are looking for?
- Initially, candidates will generalize, name group processes, and not speak from the I-person. Make sure you are clear about what the candidate has achieved.
- Dig further and have someone draw an organization chart to gain more insight into his or her position in the organization.
- Understand that you will never find out everything in the first round, but focus on the most important questions that you have determined in advance.
