How does billing work when you use Business DNA for hiring?
When using Business DNA, the pricing structure is based on a per seat basis for both the Business DNA packages and the DNA Consultant Partner package. These packages do not come with unlimited usage available.
Our team closely monitors the usage of accounts and receives regular usage reports. If your account exceeds the expected usage, our team will review the options with you. This ensures that you have the necessary flexibility and support for your hiring needs, even if they go beyond the typical usage limits.
If you wish to manage the number of records in your account and remove unneeded participants, you can easily do so using the "Remove" option on the users page. This functionality is particularly useful when combined with the Tags feature. By tagging individuals based on their role, you can release all unhired candidates associated with a particular tag, streamlining your account and keeping it organized.
Adding a Hiring Multiplier to your account:
If you want to retain a large number of candidates in your account without removing them, we provide an add-on called a "Hiring Multiplier" that can be included in your subscription. This feature enables a higher volume of completions. The Hiring Multiplier is a customizable add-on that our sales team can tailor to your specific business requirements.
