Careersome combines entitlements (what your company bought or is piloting) with role-based access (what your user is allowed to do). Both must allow a feature for it to appear and work reliably.
Full HR suite (how editions differ)
These names match the public Pricing page for the full platform:
- Basic: Recruiting and candidate pipeline, onboarding, core performance workflows, time off, organization chart, and standard reporting. Does not include employee engagement surveys, company-wide Activities & timesheet, compensation administration, succession planning, offboarding, AI-assisted candidate ranking, Organizational Stories, or the AI chat assistant unless your agreement adds them.
- Professional: Everything in Basic, plus AI-assisted ranking, offboarding, compensation, engagement, development and succession at company level, timesheets and activity tracking, Organizational Stories, the AI chat assistant, and deeper analytics, still subject to the limits in your quote.
- Enterprise: Professional-level product scope with custom limits, services, integrations, and governance options defined in your contract.
- Careersome Light (free evaluation): Recruiting with AI-assisted candidate ranking, core performance, time off, organization chart, and reporting and insights for modules you can access, all within published Light caps (jobs, applications, team size, etc.). Does not include full onboarding programs, Organizational Stories, the AI chat assistant, or paid-tier capacity until you upgrade.
Recruiting-only programs
Organizations can subscribe to recruiting-only tiers. Those emphasize job postings, pipeline, and recruiter collaboration. How many active jobs and how many recruiter seats you have is set in your order (see recruiting editions on Pricing).
Lighter or trial footprints
Careersome Light and similar evaluation access include recruiting (with AI-assisted ranking within Light limits), core performance, time off, org chart, and reporting/insights for those areas. Other tenants start with a smaller scope (for example recruiting-first). You might only see Recruitment, Dashboard, Organization chart, and Organization settings (Admins) until more modules are enabled.
Roles and navigation (typical sidebar)
- Admin: Company-wide Job Listings, onboarding, performance, engagement, time off, activities, compensation, succession, offboarding, Reports, Organizational Stories (when entitled), plus Organization settings and Organization chart. Each item appears only if your package includes that module.
- HR: Same HR operations and Reports pattern as Admin for modules that are on, but HR does not have Organization settings (company profile, departments, org-wide policies stay with Admin).
- Manager: Dashboard and, when you have direct reports and the module is entitled, Team shortcuts (for example Team time off, Team performance, Team activities, Team development, Team compensation) plus My … pages such as My time off and My performance reviews. Company-wide Job Listings is an Admin/HR entry point. Managers usually coordinate hiring with them even if other links exist elsewhere in the product.
- Employee: Dashboard and My … experiences for entitled modules only (time off, reviews, development, onboarding/offboarding when active, personal compensation views, etc.). No organization-wide HR admin areas.
If a feature is missing
Ask your Administrator to confirm your subscription scope and your role. Product marketing and Pricing describe editions at a high level; your order is the source of truth for limits.
