You must add members to the search committee on the job before submitting the job for approval in the system. Only individuals named in the search committee will have access to applicant materials and be able to leave comments in the search committee tool. You do have the ability to add individuals that are external to UD by clicking on "add search committee member" and then "add new search committee member" in the pop-up window. To make changes to the search committee after the job card has been approved, send an email with the requested change to asktalentlink@udel.edu
Additionally, Search committee members can access application materials through the search committee box on their dashboard. Searches that committee members are a part of will appear in a list.

Another advantage of Talent Link is the ability to communicate with candidates in a much timelier manner. If it is determined that there are candidates that do not meet the role qualifications as closely as other candidates, you can send out declination emails at that time. Use this Declination Statuses Guide for futher assistance. You do not need to wait until the search closes and do them all at the same time.
We will be providing online resources to be utilized as needed, as well as live training sessions that can be scheduling in ConnectingU. In addition, we will be available for any questions that come up. You can email AskTalentLink@udel.edu with any questions.
