Use case: Workaround for "one on one" notes recording and tracking

Hi Community 👋 I initially shared this as a workaround to a fellow Personio Community member in a comment of an existing post and @Daniele suggested it might be more visible as an individual post in case others find it useful. So here it is :)The described steps below cover the topic on how to enter something like "Supervisor notes" for regular one on ones, additional comments etc. with custom access to all relevant stakeholders (supervisor, HR, employee etc) while also having the historical records for past enties via the "Custom reports" sharing option.   1. In employee profile we create a section for supervisor notes. This section can contain text boxes, date when the note is written, the name of the person who wrote it, etc.   2. Edit access to this section is given to the supervisor only for example, this should be customized through roles. For any others you feel are needed like HR or the employee you can assign view rights or, if you choose so, hide it completely.    3. Supervi

Specific profiles for external collaborators such as recruiting agencies or labor firms

Currently, in order to share information with an external collaborator you have to create a profile like any other employee and rescind their permissions. It would be very useful if these people had a different profile with basic information (email, name of the contact person, phone number, person within the organization with whom they are working directly...) in the documents section  the collaboration agreement and a section for service costs instead of payroll. This would imply that they would not appear in the organization chart, or that the system would count them as one more employee in the total number of employees because it leads to confusion.

more than 1 manager in a matrix organisation

One of the biggest issues I have is that in our matrix organisation most employees are having various managers to report to, one direct and several funtional managers - at the moment I can not reflect that in the structure or have it in the profile.

Gender diversity: Best practices in Recruitment and Employer brandingBlog Recruitment Female Talent Diversity Employer branding

IntroductionGender diversity is an important topic on today's HR agendas. A recent survey conducted by Glassdoor revealed that 76% of candidates consider diverse workforce a valuable component when they apply for a job. Furthermore, by diminishing biases in recruiting, companies have access to a bigger pool of talent, which ultimately would reduce the effects of the war of talent. The term “war for talent” – referring to the lack of skilled employees on the labor market – has become more and more prominent in Europe over the last couple of years. According to a McKinsey study from 1997, this war for talent would become not only a strategic business challenge but also a critical driver of corporate and financial performance. In the recession following the dot-com bubble, it was assumed that the war for talent would be over or at least recede – however, quite the contrary became reality. Because of the strengthening economy and the development of many former third-world countries, the wa

Is it in the future also possible to have another authenticator app that works for MFA/2FA for Personio?

Hi! My coworker is working with a new mobile phone. This means that we should also be able to install the MFA/2FA authenticator on this mobile phone. For Personio we've noticed it is a bit more difficult to get the authentication working on her new mobile phone. We also noticed that it is only possible to log in, in Personio, with the authenticator app of Google.Will it the future also be able to log in via the authentication app of Microsoft? And do you perhaps have a instruction how my collegue could have the log in of Personio in her authenticator app on her new mobile phone up and running again? For example, other applications where you need to log in with an authenticator app, you have a QR-code.

Does anyone have set up a Guide for Personio for your employees?

In a few weeks, we will start to work with Personio in our company! For my employees, I would like to have a startup Guide, so that they will know what Personio is and how they will be working with Personio. I was wondering if anyone in this community already has a Guide for their employees. If so, could you perhaps share it?
