Human Resources teams handle a wide range of tasks—hiring, onboarding, managing employee information—often across departments and tools. Without a consistent structure, it’s easy to lose track of important data, leading to delays, miscommunication, and extra work.
With the Properties app for Confluence Cloud, HR teams can structure and centralize key information directly on Confluence pages. Using Property Groups and Property Reports, they create consistent processes for everything from applicant tracking to onboarding—no spreadsheets, no chaos.
Track job applications more efficiently
Hiring decisions depend on having the right information available at the right time. But applications are often stored in emails or scattered across different documents and devices. That makes it hard to track who’s applied, what stage they’re in, or what’s needed next.
With Properties, HR teams can build a structured system for tracking applicants. A custom Property Group might include fields like Role, Department, Application Date, Status, and Assigned Recruiter. When a new applicant page is created, the Property Group is added—no formatting required, and no switching into edit mode when properties need to be changed.
All entries can automatically be compiled into a centralized report view, filterable by label, department, or status. This makes it easy to review applications, and identify next steps.
Keep an overview of your team
As teams grow—on-site or remote—keeping an up-to-date overview of who’s who can be challenging. Contact details, roles, start dates, responsibilities—this kind of information often lives in disconnected places.
By defining relevant properties (like Team, Location, Start Date, Manager), HR teams can create structured employee profiles on Confluence pages. These pages feed into a live index that stays updated automatically. No need for manual lists or duplicating information—everything is just a click away and always current.
Organize and standardize onboarding
Employee onboarding involves multiple departments: HR, IT, Accounting, the new team—and everyone needs to know what’s done and what’s still open. Without a shared process, it’s easy to lose track of important steps.
With Properties, onboarding becomes consistent and trackable. HR teams set up a Property Group containing key fields like Hire Date, Team, Equipment Provided, Training Status, or Access Granted. Added to a template, every new employee page follows the same structure.
A central overview page then pulls all onboarding data into a report—shown as a table or card view. Fields like Status or Assigned Person can be updated directly in the table, so progress stays visible and up to date for everyone involved.
Simplify HR processes across the board
With Properties, HR teams don’t need separate tools or custom scripts to manage structured data. They build flexible, reusable templates and central overviews inside Confluence—keeping everything in one place and everyone in the loop.
