What are the different user roles and permissions? How to change user roles and permissions?

USER ROLES AND PERMISSIONS:


The role assigned to you on the Xobin dashboard defines your access level, responsibilities, and permissions within the platform. It determines what features you can use, such as creating tests, reviewing candidates, managing users, or accessing reports, ensuring smooth collaboration and secure handling of hiring workflows.


Xobin supports four default user roles:

  • Super Admin
  • Admin
  • Observer
  • Test Creator


The Super Admin can also create custom roles and define specific permissions for each.


  1. Super-Admin

The primary Xobin account user and the one who has all the rights to use the entire Xobin platform.


Permissions:

  • Assessments: Create, edit, and preview tests; manage settings, invite candidates, and export reports.
  • Tracks: Build and configure tracks, send them to candidates, and manage all incoming responses.
  • AI Interviews: Full control over scheduling, interviewer configurations, candidate invites, and reporting.
  • Billing: Complete authority over subscriptions, payments, and all finance-related operations.
  • Account & Users: Manage company branding and user administration — including adding up to 10 users, assigning and modifying roles (including custom roles), and managing invitations.
