New application

An application is the record of one candidate applying for one vacancy. New applications can be created:

• Manually, by linking a candidate with a vacancy. New candidates applying outside a Candidate Portal or Agency Portal, or whose email applications cannot be allocated automatically need to have their applications created manually. You can also use the manual process when considering existing candidates for second or subsequent vacancies, either from the Candidate Details page or from the results section of a Candidate Search.

• Automatically, when candidates apply for specific vacancies through:

  • Job Boards
  • Candidate Portals
  • Agency Portals
  • Email, with the vacancy reference in the subject line.
