No. Your employees only see jobs available within your organization through the Employment Hero Work app. We exclude recommending all active employees on the Employment Hero platform to any organization.
We rely on account emails to track users that should not be recommended for external roles. We also encourage you to make sure employees have their personal email addresses on the employee file, so those can be excluded from SmartMatch results as well.
