v2025.24 (12/11/2025)

Announcement: Multiposting Switch  ^{ANNOUNECEMENT} 

We are switching over: The old multiposting system will be replaced on 12/11/2025! From December 12, placements will only be possible via the new multiposting system. If you are still using the old multiposting system, you will see a message to this effect in the system when you try to start a new placement.

Multiposting – LinkedIn Invited Candidates  ^NEW 

If you book LinkedIn Job Promotions via multiposting in the “Medium” or ‘Large’ packages, the new “Invited Candidates” feature will be activated automatically. Every day, LinkedIn identifies up to 25 potentially suitable candidates—regardless of whether they are actively looking for a job or not—and invites them specifically to apply for your position. This process runs for 14 days and can reach up to 350 qualified talents per job – at no additional cost or effort on your part.

Optionally, you can provide an email address to receive daily overviews. Even without providing this information, you will still benefit from the extended reach. The new feature appeals to both actively searching candidates (e.g., with “Open to Work” status) and passive talent identified by LinkedIn as a good fit. This increases the visibility of your job ads and significantly speeds up your recruitment processes.

We have made the following corrections  ^FIXED 

• Application Portals: In certain system configurations, automatic redirection occurred in some cases when the application portal was opened. Now, the internal view is displayed correctly again without visitors being redirected.
• Multiposting: In rare cases, a 404 error page was displayed when calling up the campaign details in the Job Openings. Now, all campaign details open reliably and completely again.
• Calendar integration: Problems could occur in individual cases when connecting calendars individually. The connection can now be established as intended again. 

v2025.23 (11/27/2025)

We are switching over: The old multiposting will be replaced on 12/11/2025   ^ANNOUNCEMENT   

Starting on 12/12/2025, ads can only be placed using the new multiposting. If you are still using the old multiposting system, a corresponding message will be displayed directly in the system as soon as you try to start a new ad.

More information about the new multiposting system can be found in the Help Portal: d.vinci Multiposting or on our website, where you can also conveniently book a consultation appointment.

New help chatbot available from 01/01/2026!   ^ANNOUNCEMENT   

The new help chatbot will be available from January 1, 2026, offering you fast and reliable support for our products around the clock – directly in the system and in the Help Portal. As soon as the function is activated, a speech bubble will appear in the bottom right-hand corner, which you can use to start the chat.

What are the benefits of the new chatbot?

• Immediate help whenever you have questions
• Privacy policy guaranteed: The chatbot only uses content from our Help Portal – your system data remains secure. You can find more information here: Why did d.vinci choose Zendesk as a subcontractor?
• Modern and stable technology from Zendesk, our optional subcontractor
• Direct contact with support: If the chatbot cannot find a suitable answer, you can create a support ticket directly. The chat history is automatically attached as an attachment.

System-wide activation – you decide!

From January 1, 2026, the function will be activated for you by default. However, you have full control and can turn the chatbot off and on again at any time in the basic settings under “Options.” You have a convenient lead time until December 31, 2025, to inform yourself and decide whether you want to use the chatbot permanently.

Tip for optimal use:

Start a separate chat for each new question – this will give you even faster and more targeted support.

Find out more about the new help chatbot in this help article and experience how easy and convenient team support can be – while retaining full control at all times!

Spelling and grammar check in the text editor  ^NEW 

You can now use AI to check your texts for spelling and grammar directly in the text editor. This feature is enabled by default for all customers.

• Click the AI icon in the editor to open an overlay that checks your text.
• The entire content of the editor is always checked.
• Any changes made are highlighted in color in the overlay.
• You can use the feedback function to rate whether the result is helpful or not – this helps us to further optimize the feature.
• The changes can be accepted or rejected by closing the window again.

Important:

The editor is used in various places in our products. In individual cases, the texts in the editor may contain personal data. Please keep this in mind when using this feature.

Here's what to do:

1. Enter text in the editor.
2. Click the AI icon.
3. Check the changes and accept them using the button.

How we deliver the feature:

• The feature is enabled by default for all customers.
• The feature can be disabled in the basic settings under Options → AI Features.

Multiposting – Launch campaign  ^Better 

When launching a new multiposting campaign, the individual steps are now more clearly laid out, making it easier to select the appropriate Job Boards, for example.

Text editor – Link insertion for images and videos  ^Better 

In the text editor, you can now insert images and videos via URL even more easily and securely.

• When inserting a link in the image editor or video editor, “https://” is automatically added.
• Local paths (e.g., “file://...”) are recognized and rejected.
• Inserted images now retain their original size.

v2025.22 (11/13/2025)

Reporting – Date Selection    ^Improved 

A revised module for date selection ensures consistent and intuitive usability. 

We have made the following corrections    ^Corrected 

• Job Advertisement: Placeholders embedded in the layout now appear empty in the footer of the job advertisement if they are empty. 
• Rescheduling Appointments: When rescheduling appointments, certain configurations caused an error message. You can now reschedule appointments without errors. 

v2025.21 (10/28/2025)

Replacement of old Job Lists   ^Reminder  

On November 17th 2025, the old job lists (JobWidget v1) will be permanently deactivated and will no longer be available.

What does this mean for you?

• Those authorized to give instructions or edit application portals will see a notification upon login if an old job list is still in use.

Mobile Number in the Applicant Form    ^NEW 

The new Mobile Number field is now available in the Application Questionnaire. Applicants can easily enter their mobile phone number there without making any mistakes. The field consists of a drop-down menu for the country code (e.g., +49 for Germany), which is automatically pre-filled according to the organizational unit, and a free input field for the number itself.

• The mobile number is always stored in the structured international format (e.g., +49 1721234567). Spaces are removed when saving.
• The mobile number is available in the following places:
  • In the Application Questionnaire
  • When viewing, editing, and manually creating an application
  • In applicant exports
  • In our APIs (Apply API, REST API)
  • In the full-text search (People can be found via their mobile number)
• The form fields Phone and Alternative telephone remain unchanged.

Tip:

With structured storage, you can, for example, start WhatsApp chats with applicants directly.

For more information on configuration and use, see the help article: How do I set up WhatsApp communication with applicants?

WhatsApp Chat – Advanced Logic for Mobile Numbers   ^Better  

When sending a WhatsApp message, the system now automatically checks which number is suitable for the chat:

• First, it checks whether a number is stored in the Mobile number field. If this is the case, this number is used for the WhatsApp chat.
• If no mobile number is entered, the system checks whether a mobile number is stored in the Telephone or Alternative Telephone field and uses this number.

This ensures that the correct number is always used for the WhatsApp chat and that you do not send messages to landline numbers or invalid numbers.

Tip:

If possible, always ask your applicants for their mobile number in the corresponding field so that the WhatsApp chat can be started immediately.

For more information on setup and use, see the main article: What is the WhatsApp application with PitchYou?

v2025.20 (10/16/2025)

AI Power for your Job Publications    ^NEW  

From now on, you can get support from artificial intelligence when creating publications. Based on the content of the job opening, the AI automatically fills in the fields of the job publication and adds important elements (e.g., m/f/x) to the texts, such as in the position title. You can then review the draft and adjust it as needed before publishing it as usual.
More here: How do I create a job publication with AI?

Note on Data Transfer
These contents are taken 1:1 from the hiring request, if available.

• Tasks
• Requirements

Where is this feature available?

Custom date range in Analytics    ^NEW  

In the job opening under the tab Analytics, you can now make more precise settings for the field Date Range and narrow the view to a timeframe you define. In the field Date Range, you will find the option Custom. Selecting this will display two date fields for the start date and end date. This allows you to enter timeframes relevant to you, such as project periods, the impact of campaign runtimes, launches, events, etc., for better analysis. Using the Data Interval option, you can specify how your data is grouped.

Application - Applications for   ^Improved  

While creating an application manually, you will now see a light gray hint at the field Application for. It indicates that – if you do not select anything – the main title of the job opening will automatically be used. This makes the application easier and clarifies that no selection is necessary here.

We have made the following corrections   ^Fixed  

• Job publications: We have fixed various minor errors in the job publications area. For example, the generation of the short description via AI now works flawlessly again, and the selection of images via the input field is now back in the correct position.
• Dropdowns: We have fixed errors in the dropdown selection. When searching for elements via text input, all elements of an organizational unit can now be found again by their name. When selecting job openings, the status of the job opening is now displayed as an icon in all relevant places.

If a job list is embedded outside of the application portal (for example, in the intranet) and the linked portal is protected by SSO, access now works seamlessly.

• List of Job Publications
  If you choose this option, the start page is deactivated. When the application portal is accessed, only a list of job publications is shown - without additional layout options. In this case, the application portal is primarily used to distribute job ads to job boards or other systems.

Application portal – performance and error handling   <sup>Better</sup>

We have improved loading times, general error handling, and the clarity of error messages in the application portal.

Interview invitations – extended participant selection  <sup>Better</sup>

You can now select more participants when scheduling an interview: all users who have access to the application as well as all users who belong to the same organizational unit as the job opening.

We have made the following corrections    <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Job openings: An error that occurred during the creation of job openings has been resolved.

v2025.6 (03/20/2025)

Multiposting - Banner   <sup>Better</sup>  

There are changes in multiposting! In the section job publication, we now highlight our service with a banner, as we are currently redesigning it from the ground up. Soon, we will offer exciting new posting options directly from d.vinci – without any setup hassle. Stay tuned! We will update you here as soon as everything is ready.
Not using multiposting yet? If you're interested, feel free to contact our customer service at any time.

System - Accessibility   <sup>Better</sup>  

• Better content recognition
  To improve accessibility for screen readers, the main content area of the page is now marked. This makes it easier for users of assistive technologies to navigate pages.
  This improvement applies to:
  • Intro page of the application portal
  • Job Advertisement
  • Questionnaires
  • Landing page
  • Start Page
  • Feedback form
  • Iframe job lists
• Better readability of content
  Decorative elements, such as benefit icons, will no longer be read aloud by screen readers to enhance the user experience for those using assistive technologies.

System - success message display   <sup>Better</sup>  

Notifications about success messages are now dynamic in parts of the system. They briefly appear at the top center of the page and disappear automatically after a few seconds. This adjustment will be rolled out gradually across the entire system.

Data protection - image names   <sup>Better</sup> 

If images are downloaded from the system or external locations like job postings, they will now be assigned a different filename to protect any personal data that might be included in the original file name.
For example, the filename SebastianMueller.jpg is now changed to 233774748.jpg. 

Internally, you will still see the original name to ensure correct assignment of the images.

Application portal - JobShop integration   <sup>Better</sup>  

The application portal now includes a new option for customers using the JobShop from talentsconnect. 

By activating the JobShop application form option and entering the JobShop main domain, applicants will be redirected to the talentsconnect application form, and the data will be transferred to your d.vinci system. 

This ensures a seamless user experience, potentially leading to higher application rates and lower dropout rates.

Conflicts - performance   <sup>Better</sup>  

For complex conflicts, such as when multiple applications are compared, we have improved performance.

We have made the following corrections   <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Job Openings: Deleted companies no longer appear in the company selection for job openings.
• Application form: Saving the application form now works correctly again after "Apply with" has been changed.
• Job Publication: Job advertisement templates can now be correctly linked to job publications without errors.
• Reporting: We have further improved data consistency.

v2025.5 (03/06/2025)

Links - legal notices    <sup>Better</sup>  

We have updated the links from the d.vinci system to our documents such as the AVV and others, as they have received a new address on our website. Additionally, we have updated a notification text in our system.

 

We have made the following corrections    <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Job Video: Media can now always be selected correctly in job videos , and special characters are no longer transferred to ensure that texts are read out correctly.

v2025.4 (02/20/2025)

Application Portal - Search Engines and Security    <sup>Better</sup>  

The security and search engine settings have been optimized in the application portal.

• Data Tab - Search Engines Section
  The field Application portal visible to search engines is now called Indexing for search engines to clarify what enabling this function does.
  Additionally, we have added an informational text to help you understand the impact of these settings:
  "If indexing is disabled, a guideline is set for search engines and job crawlers, instructing them to ignore the portal's content. For intranet portals, additional protection through IP access rules and SSO configuration in the Security tab is strongly recommended."
• Security Tab
  The field for IP restrictions is now always visible when opening the tab, ensuring greater transparency.

Application Form - Screening Questions    <sup>Better</sup>  

In the questionnaire type application form, screening questions are now displayed exactly where and in the same order as they appear to applicants when filling out the form.

We have made the following corrections    <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Special Characteristics: A bug in the selection of special characteristics in screening questions has been fixed.
• Users: It is now possible to search for users using the special character parentheses ( ) without errors.
• Google for Jobs: To ensure the correct display of logos, we are now passing the file extension to search engines again.
• Screening Questions: Leading spaces in screening questions are no longer allowed to prevent errors in data processing.
• Multiposting: Access barriers in multiposting have been resolved.

v2025.3  (02/06/2025)

How we are rolling out the feature

February 2nd 

Subscriptions are not yet available; permissions will be added.

• We are adding the two new permissions (Consultation-Relevant Information and System-Relevant Information) to the roles Administrator (Default) and HR Department (Default).
• These two new permissions will also be added to all roles that contain one of the following permissions:
  • Basic Settings | Configure
  • Roles | View/Edit/Create
  • Roles | View/Edit/Create/Delete
  • Publications (of job postings) | View/Edit/Create
  • Publications (of job postings) | View/Edit/Create/Delete

February 17th

• The "My User" page is accessible to everyone. Infor channels can be subscribed to there.
• At the first login of the day, all users will see a notification about the info channels. New users will see this notification upon their first login in the future.

Should users be unable to subscribe to the info channels (system-relevant and consultation-relevant)?

Until February 16th, you can modify roles or create new roles that no longer include these permissions.

This is what the notification looks like for users on February 17th and for new users after their first login. 

Application Portals – Search Engine Behavior     <sup>Better</sup>  

We have implemented a policy for search engines that sets the noindex, follow directive for your unstyled iframe job listing. As a result, the iframe list no longer appears in search results, while your job postings continue to be found and listed.

Basic Settings – IP Access Rules     <sup>Better</sup>  

You can now also enter IP addresses with a CIDR range of /32. For example: 185.11.222.22/32

MS Teams Meeting – Email Text     <sup>Better</sup>  

We have removed redundancies from the system invitation text for MS Teams meetings to enhance readability. 

We have made the following corrections     <sup>Corrected</sup>    

• oData: When data for the organizational unit is retrieved, it is now identical in oData and the Excel raw data as expected.
• Font Awesome:  The links to the Font Awesome icons in the Benefits now point to the freely available icons. 

v2025.2 (01/23/2025)

Job Publication - Job Publication Channels    <sup>Better</sup>  

We have improved the overview of job publication channels in the job publication.

The channels are now divided into two sections:

• Own Job Publication Channels
  Here you can see all the job publication channels you have created in your system.
• Additional Channels and Campaigns
  This section first displays your multiposting campaigns, followed by postings through our agency channels.

 Example Image  

Questionnaires - Source    <sup>Better</sup>  

You can now configure in the master data whether a source should be selectable in questionnaires for applicants.

For example, you can create specific recruitment agencies as sources and assign applications to them without allowing applicants to select this source themselves.

Things to note

• By default, all existing and new sources have the setting Visible in Questionnaire: Yes selected.
• If you want to hide sources from applicants, change the setting in the sources to Visible in Questionnaire: No.

 Example Image

We have made the following corrections    <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Layout: In the mobile view, the Apply with WhatsApp button in job postings is now displayed correctly.
• System Login: There were occasional issues with login. These have been resolved.
• Application Portal: Despite the deactivated setting "Application portal visible to search engines," it was possible that indexing by search engines occurred. This behavior has now been fixed.

v2025.1 (01/09/2025)

Users - User Photo    Better  

To improve the system's performance and optimize loading times, we have limited the maximum file size for user photos to 256 kilobytes. This supports SEO measures through faster loading times and ensures consistency throughout the system.

Photos you have already uploaded that currently exceed this size will not cause errors. However, new photos must meet the new requirements to be uploaded.

Calendar Integration - Rooms   <sup>Better</sup>  

To ensure the display of all availabilities and keep loading times low, we have limited the creation of rooms per location to 20.

Tip for locations with many rooms

If you need more than twenty rooms per location, we recommend splitting the locations. For example, by entering "Hannover - Floor 1" in the name field and then adding only the rooms located on that floor. For "Hannover - Floor 2," add the corresponding rooms, and so on.

Please also remember to assign the external name for the location if necessary, so your applicants do not receive internal data.

Correspondence Templates - Optimized wording   <sup>Better</sup>  

When selecting the status change option in correspondence templates, the field status is now called target status. This change makes it clearer to which status the correspondence template is assigned.

We have implemented the following fixes    <sup>Fixed</sup>  

• Media: Making multiple changes to the settings of media now works without errors again.
• Tasks: After editing tasks in the personnel requirements area and making changes to the user groups of the posting, the task counter in the header is now updated correctly again.
