# Rehire Employee

> Rehire a former employee in the connected HRIS.

> [!NOTE]

> This feature is now in closed beta. Please reach out to your account manager

## Overview

**Rehire Employee** brings a former employee back in the connected HRIS. Get the fields the HRIS accepts for the new job, collect the required values, then submit them.

## Implementation

1. Get the rehire form for the employee.
2. Send the required values in `properties`, using the field keys returned by GET.

> [card] [Get Rehire Form](https://docs.kombo.dev/hris/v1/get-employees-employee-id-form-rehire.md)
>
> Get the fields the HRIS needs to rehire this employee.

> [card] [Rehire Employee](https://docs.kombo.dev/hris/v1/post-employees-employee-id-form-rehire.md)
>
> Send the filled form to rehire the employee.

`employee_id` accepts the Kombo ID or the HRIS ID as `remote:<id>`.

To rehire into a specific position or requisition, pass its Kombo ID as `staffing_entity_id`. Use the same ID for GET and POST. See [staffing entities](https://docs.kombo.dev/hris/implementation-guide/staffing-entities-in-create-employee.md) for details.

Requires the **Create and manage employees** permission in your [scopes](https://docs.kombo.dev/hris/features/scopes.md).

> [card] [Displaying the Form](https://docs.kombo.dev/hris/implementation-guide/create-employee.md)
>
> The rehire form has the same format as the create employee form. The guide
> shows how to display the form and match its fields to yours.
