Actions that can be taken on a Candidate Profile
Candidate Profiles offer a variety of actionable features to streamline candidate management, communication, and organization. Here’s what you can do directly from any Candidate Profile:
Edit the candidate’s profile and tags: Customize and update candidate details such as personal information, work experience, education, and skills. You can also apply specific tags to categorize candidates for easier search and organization.
Set reminders: Set reminders for key follow-up actions.
Add notes: Take notes on candidate interactions, impressions, or any relevant details that may aid in decision-making. Notes can be set as public or private to control visibility among team members, ensuring transparency or confidentiality where needed.
Mark candidates as “Do not contact”: If a candidate requests not to be contacted or if they’re no longer a good fit for the role, flagging their profile with “Do Not Contact” prevents future outreach and ensures that the information is respected across teams.
Add candidates to Projects and Sequences: Add candidates to specific Projects or automated Outreach Sequences for targeted follow-ups. This streamlines the process of engaging every candidate at the right times and with the appropriate messaging—improving overall efficiency in managing talent pipelines.
Take a bulk action on a candidate: Select a group of candidates on which to take a bulk action—adding them to a Sequence, requesting a review, removing them from a Project, logging outreach, setting reminders, adding them to a job, and more.
