By default, a new Talent Community will be Inactive, but you can enable this upon creation to use it right away. When you are no longer utilizing a Talent Community or re-enabling it for additional use, you can disable or enable, respectively, the community to accommodate for your needs.

Inactive vs. active logic

Inactive:

• By default, the community will be not be active. This means that it will be closed for entry for all new candidates. When inactive, the community will not appear as a selectable option in the Community of Interest question nor will it appear as a selectable option in the Talent Community workflow movement.
• Any candidates already in a community before it is deactivated will remain in that community and their experience in it will continue undisrupted. The action of deactivating a community will only affect future candidates by preventing them from joining that community.

Active:

• When activated, the talent community will be open for all candidates to join. It will appear as a selectable option in both the Community of Interest question and in the Talent Community Workflow movement.
