Career Preference Questions

This allows administrators to define the questions that display to users on Career Preferences. The Career Preference Questions administration allows administrators to customize current questions and create new questions for the Career Preferences.

To access the Career Preference Questions, go to Admin > Tools > Succession Management > Career Preference Questions.

Select whether the available locations for the Career Preference Questions are taken from the available Location OUs in the system or from the locations that are entered into the Location Bank. If this selection is changed, all of the locations selected by users are cleared and users must reselect the appropriate locations.

  • Location OU - This allows users to select from the available Location OUs.
  • Location Bank - This allows users to select from the available locations that the administrator has entered into the Location Bank.
