If you would like to make updates to a candidate simply access their candidate card either from a specific job or in the candidate bank. In the action bar under ⋮ More you will find the option Edit at the very top.
Once here, you can edit the different fields. Let’s look at some details!
Personal information
You can edit basic info such as the candidate's name and email, or you can add additional contact details or even a profile photo of the candidate.
Pitch / Resume
If needed, you can also edit the candidate’s pitch* and attach a new resume to their profile.
* The candidate has the option of adding/updating their pitch when connecting with your company.
Statuses
You are able to manually update the Internal / Sourced status of the candidate. You can learn all about the candidate’s statuses here.
Locations
Your candidates will automatically belong to your different locations, depending on what job they’ve applied for or their preferences (added when they Connect). When editing their profile, you are able to update the location settings for the candidate.
Edit answers / Cover letter
Lastly, you have the option of updating the information added by the candidate.
❗ Keep in mind! Changing information in the candidate’s profile will change the information left by the candidate and should only be done if you have a valid reason to (after being in contact with the candidate). Instead of you updating, we recommend you ask the candidate to Connect so they can edit their application on their own before you start managing the process.
For internal notes/comments, use the Comments section of the candidate’s profile.
When you are done, click Save and the new or edited information will appear on the candidate's card. Once you edit a candidate's information, you will not be able to retrieve the old information. Therefore, it is important to be mindful of what fields you are editing.
