What is Job Requisition?
A formal internal document requesting approval to fill a position, including budget justification, role details, and management sign-off before recruiting begins.
Why it matters in hiring
Job Requisition comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
