✅ Step-by-Step: Candidate Document Submission


📩 Step 1: Receive Onboarding Email

Once onboarding is initiated, the candidate receives an email titled:

“Action Required: Upload your onboarding documents”

This email includes:

  • A brief explanation of the request

  • A secure, personalized link to begin uploading documents

  • A note indicating this step is required to proceed with employment

The link opens the onboarding checklist and does not require login.

📌 The onboarding link remains valid for 21 days. Candidates can upload and update documents any number of times within that period.


📂 Step 2: Upload Required Documents

Clicking the link opens the Onboarding Checklist, grouped by document categories selected by the staffing company.

Examples include:

  • General: Government ID, SIN, Work Eligibility, Selfie Photo

  • Direct Deposit: Banking details

  • Background Check: Criminal Record Check, Vulnerable Sector Check

  • Training & Education: WHMIS, Health & Safety, Certificates

  • Licenses & Certificates: Trade licenses, Forklift certification

  • References: Names and contact information

  • Healthcare: Immunization records, health tests

For each item:

  • Tap Upload to attach a photo or file

  • Some fields (like references) require form input rather than upload

Progress is visually tracked within the checklist.


🔐 Step 3: Verify with OTP

Before final submission, candidates are required to verify their identity:

  1. Click Submit after completing document uploads

  2. Enter the OTP code sent to both your email and mobile number

  3. Confirm the code to proceed with submission

🛡️ This ensures the checklist is securely submitted by the right person.


✅ Step 4: Submit Checklist

Once verified:

  • The checklist is submitted to the staffing company

  • A confirmation screen will appear indicating success

Candidates can reopen the same email link later to upload any missing or updated items if needed.


💡 Tips for a Smooth Experience

  • Ensure document images are clear and legible

  • Use your phone’s camera for quick uploads

  • Submit the checklist promptly to avoid onboarding delays
