Adding and managing candidates
While viewing a job, click the Candidates tab to get started. Here, you can review the candidates who have already applied to your job and add more candidates manually.
Click the + Add candidate button to add more candidates manually. You have two options:
-
Autofill profile (daily limit: 3 profile auto-fills): If you have the candidate's email address, type it and click search. Upon successful profile retrieval (from our sourcing tools), you can autofill the candidate’s details by clicking the Autofill button.
- Add profile manually: Add the candidate's details manually (first and last name is mandatory). You can also upload a resume in .pdf format.
Click Add candidate to complete the addition. Hover over an existing candidate to edit their details or remove them from your list.
Evaluating candidates
Next, submit evaluations for your candidates using your saved interview kit. Hover over a candidate and click Add evaluation to get started.
You can optionally rate individual questions or add notes. The rating system will be the one you have chosen when setting up the interview kit (in theis example, we are using the numeric rating).
Only the overall evaluation section at the bottom of the page is mandatory. Once done, click Save evaluation.
Submitted evaluations will appear on the right of each candidate.
Once you have saved your candidate evaluation, you can edit it, share via email or download as PDF.
- Edit an evaluation of a candidate
- A submitted evaluation can be edited anytime by clicking on the evaluation icon on the specific candidate. To save the edited evaluation, you should click Save evaluation again.
- Share an evaluation
- You can share a candidate's evaluation via the
button directly with other people via email. Add one or more email addresses (you can add up to 16 emails) in the field by clicking enter for each email. Once ready, click Share via email.
- Upon sharing, the recipient(s) will receive an email:
- The shared candidate evaluation URL is public and will be valid for 1 month.
- Download as PDF
- You can download a candidate evaluation as a PDF from the 3 dots menu.
- Your browser’s print function is initiated where you can select to 'Save as PDF'. The follow-up questions are not included in the PDF because they cannot be rated, and no notes can be added.
