Keep your candidate database in check by organizing and keeping only relevant candidates and ensure that the personal data you store is relevant. Let's see how you can use Teamtailor filters to make this easy peasy!

Under the Candidates tab in your account, you will be able to use filters to quickly find specific segments of candidates by using the candidate filters.

In the filter section Application stage, you can filter on the status of the candidate's submitted application. Here, it might be interesting to see the candidates that were rejected in the past and determine if these would be relevant to keep storing for future recruitment. Under Application stages, set Rejected: Yes, and just like that you'll find all candidates that have been rejected in a process.  

Find candidates that were created before or haven't had an activity recorded after a specific date. Use this filter to see if you have any old and inactivate candidates that you might no longer need to keep. 

Use the Ratings filter to find the candidates with lower ratings, as you've deemed them as less-than-ideal matches for your company. 

Once you've identified the candidates you no longer need to keep in your candidate bank, it's time to delete them. This is done in an efficient way using the bulk feature.
​
To do so, enable Bulk (1) and mark the candidates you wish to delete (2). In the action menu that appears, click ⠇More (3) and then Delete candidates (4).

As a security precaution, you’ll be asked to confirm the number of candidates you’re deleting. State how many candidates you want to delete and confirm by clicking Delete candidates.
