How do I request new or custom attributes to be added?

You're able to request new or custom attributes in Findem! Here, we'll walk you through what information to include so the request can be reviewed and processed efficiently.

What Findem Can Add as an Attribute

Findem supports creating custom attributes in situations where standard filters do not meet your exact needs. Professional certifications can be added so they are available as talent search attributes. Findem also supports creating custom attributes for specific educational criteria when needed.

Information to Include in Your Attribute Request

To help the team define and create a new attribute, include the following information in your request:

• Clear attribute names and definitions.
• Any supporting files that describe the attribute.
• Sample profile URLs that show where and how the attribute (such as a certification) is typically displayed on candidate profiles. These certifications can typically be found in a candidate's profile, either in their job title, certifications section, or professional credentials.

How to Submit a New Attribute Request

There are two supported ways to request a new attribute in Findem:

Submit a Request to Findem Support

You can submit a request to Findem Support or your Findem CSM specifying the dashboard and the custom attributes you want added. In your request, provide clear attribute names and definitions, along with any supporting files. Support will process the request and notify you when the attributes have been created.

Using Attributes and Filters

Once custom attributes are created, they can be used as part of your attributes and filters strategy in Findem projects. For more information on using attributes and filters, see How to Approach Attributes and Filters in Projects.
