How do I review applicants and update their stage?

Open Applicants to see everyone who applied, read their resume, change their stage and add notes your team can see.

Find applicants

• The Pipeline panel at the top counts applicants at each stage across all your listings.
• Use the Listing and Stage menus to filter the list. Newest applications come first.
• You can also open one listing under Jobs and scroll to Applicants for just that job.

What you see for each applicant

• Name, headline and the listing they applied to
• Their contact email and phone
• The note they wrote when applying
• The text we read from their resume, or "No resume attached"
• Your team's notes

Change the stage

Use the status menu on the applicant card. The options are Submitted, Viewed by employer, Interviewing, Offer, Hired and Not selected. Changes save right away and the job seeker sees the new stage in their account.

Some stages send an automatic email to the applicant. See How do I schedule interviews and set start dates?.

Add a note

Type in Add an interview note and tap Add note. Notes are visible to everyone in your company and to the applicant on their application details page, so keep them professional.

Message an applicant

Tap Message applicant to open a conversation. It appears in your Inbox and in the applicant's Messages.

If it still doesn't work

If a stage change does not save, refresh the page and try again. Otherwise open a ticket from Help & support with the category Applications.
