Permissions: Employees and above

Product tier: Available for Greenhouse Welcome and Greenhouse Onboarding tiers

This article outlines how to view and manage an employee's profile in Greenhouse Onboarding as an employee, manager, admin, or user with custom access. Click here to learn how to edit your personal employee profile. 

Note: Your view of the employee's profile may look different depending on the permissions granted by your organization's Admin Owner.

For example, coordinators who are assigned as a manager to other employees will have more access to the employee profile than users with manager access only. Click here to learn more about user permissions in Greenhouse Onboarding. 

Employee access

To help foster engagement and connection in your organization, you are able to view basic information about other employees.

To access a coworker's profile, enter their name in the Search box located at the top of your home page. Click the resulting employee from the dropdown that appears.

The header of their employee profile includes their name, profile picture, pronouns and pronunciations, job title, department, start date, and work email. 

This page also displays additional personal information, their manager, and a list of the employee's direct reports if they are assigned as a manager to other employees. 

Note: Access to employee information varies depending on what your Admin Owner makes viewable to different users in your organization.

Custom access

Custom access is a set of specialized permissions granted to users by your organization's Admin Owner. Your view of an employee's profile will depend on how your custom permissions are configured.

Example: If you are an employee's mentor and given access to view and edit tasks assigned to current employees, you'll see the Tasks tab on the employee's profile.

To access a coworker's profile, enter their name in the Search box located at the top of your home page. Click the resulting employee from the dropdown that appears.
