Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1.How do I know which job a candidate has applied for?

The Job column in the Candidate Pool will display the job titles that each candidate has applied for. When you apply the Job filter, the list will display only candidates for the selected job.
 

2 . Can I filter for multiple jobs at once?

 No, you can only filter candidates by one job at a time. If you need to view candidates for multiple roles, you will have to apply the filter individually for each job.

3. Why don’t I see certain jobs in the filter?

 If some jobs are missing from the filter dropdown, it could be because no candidates have applied for those positions yet or because those jobs are not currently available for filtering. Contact your system administrator if you believe there’s an issue.
 
 

 

4.Can I take action on candidates filtered by job?

 Yes, once you’ve applied the Job filter, you can still view, edit, or move candidates to other stages in the hiring process using the three dots (⋮) menu.
 
 

 

5.Does filtering by job affect my download of candidate data?

Yes. When you apply the Job filter, the Download button will export only the candidates who have applied for the selected job. This helps to create a job-specific candidate list for further review.
 

 

6.Can I filter by job and source at the same time?

Yes, you can apply a filter at a time for both Job and Source. If you want to filter candidates by both job and source, you will need to apply each filter separately.
