There are different ways to create a new applicant:

  • Option 1: By clicking on the dropdown button on the top right corner on any page. Select the “New Applicant“ option.

  • Option 2: By navigating to a specific job. Open the View applicants page. From the Applicants Inbox tab, click on “New Applicant“ button.

     

  • Option 3: By navigating to the candidate profile you would like to create an application for. Open its job applications tab, then click on “Add New” button.

     

Once in the “create new application“ form, you will need to fill in all the required fields in every step. There is a description at the top of each page which will guide you on how to complete the forms correctly. Use the “Continue” and the “Back” buttons to navigate through the steps, or jump directly into any step by using the list on the “Steps“ panel.

There are 5 steps in creating a new job application:

  1. Select Candidate

  2. Select Job

  3. Resume
