When an existing candidate is a good fit for one of your open positions, you can add them manually to the job process within Teamtailor.

Access the candidate card to get started. In the action bar under ⋮ More, click the + Add to job button. This will allow you to manually add (source) the candidate to one of your job postings.

If the candidate is yet to be added to any job process, this action will be prompted like so:

Once added, the candidate will appear in the Inbox stage within the job with the status Sourced application.

When adding a candidate to a new job, all their previous data (e.g., reviews, comments, messages, etc.) will remain intact.

If the candidate is part of another job process, they will stay in that recruitment process. If that job is no longer relevant, you’ll need to reject that job application.

Pro tip!
Set up a reject reason under Settings → Recruitment → Reject reasons to be used for job applications rejected when a candidate is moved to another process.


This data can be tracked in your Jobs report, Recruitment reports, or when setting up your own Custom reports.
