I-9 Authorized Representative SMS Notification Configuration
When sending the Onboarding request, recruiters are able to select a workflow for who is responsible for completing Section 2 of the I-9 form. If the recruiter selects Applicant Assigned, the applicant will be responsible for assigning their own authorized representative as part of the Section 1 process. When this option is selected, an additional section will be added to the bottom of the I-9 Section 1 form where the employee is required to provide the name of their authorized representative as well as either their email address or mobile phone number.
If a mobile phone number is provided, the authorized representative will receive an SMS message requesting they complete Section 2 of the candidate’s I-9.
Configuration
The following configurations can be set within the Configuration experience, as an Administrator-type user:
- Navigate to Configuration > Settings > System Settings
- On System Settings navigate to Form I-9 & E-Verify > Allow Applicant to Assign Representative
- Toggle Authorized Representative SMS Message to On
Authorized Representative SMS Notification is a sub-configuration that is only available once the Allow Applicant Assign Second Signer configuration is enabled.
