Adaface provides granular control over how a company can manage their recruitment team's access to various actions in Adaface. Each user is assigned a role which is a collection of permissions that are defined to indicate the actions that can be performed by the holder. For example, to edit a test, you must be either a Super Admin or Tests Admin.

Here's an overview of what roles you can assign to team members and what permissions they have:
