Candidates

Introduction/Purpose

The Candidates module serves as a central repository for managing candidate profiles throughout the recruitment process. It allows recruiters to track, evaluate, and engage with candidates from application submission to final hiring decisions. This feature ensures seamless integration of candidate data, interview schedules, feedback, and status updates, promoting a streamlined and efficient hiring workflow.

How to Navigate

To access the Candidate in the Recruitment Management System:

  • Go to Candidate Management > Candidate.
  • The page will display a list of all candidate records, including those submitted manually by recruiters or sourced from third-party platforms (e.g., job portals, ATS integrations).
  • Each record shows the candidate’s details, application status, and progress in the recruitment workflow.
