Payscale JobNav Recruiter

JobNav puts one authoritative version of every job inside your HRIS, so it's governed where the work already happens.​ Most organizations run on two job libraries — the one in Workday, and the one that actually gets used, scattered across SharePoint, Word docs, and spreadsheets. That gap creates real risk: misclassifications, comp priced against outdated roles, and sign-offs nobody can track.

Pros

  • Ease of Use
  • Helpful
  • Job Posting
  • Diversity
  • Talent Acquisition
  • Candidate Management
