Manually Adding a Candidate To The Database
The ATS allows you to manually add a candidate to the database so that they are on your system. This could be because you wish to assign them to a role on the system (see the article on "Assigning Candidates to a Role") or you wish to add them to a talent pool (see the article on "Building a Talent Pool Through Tagging").
Clicking on the Candidate tab on the left hand side of the screen will take you through to ATS candidate database.
To add a candidate to the database, click on the Add button on the right hand side of the screen.
You will then be asked to enter details about the candidate. Fields marked with a * are mandatory fields to be completed.
Should you wish (and if the candidate has given you permission to enter their diversity details for reporting, you can add these in on the next screen through selecting the choices from the dropdown boxes.
Once you have added the details, click the "Save" button. You will then move onto the Files tab. This will allow you to upload the candidate's CV and cover letter.
To upload the candidate's CV, click on the blue box and then select the file that you wish to upload. To upload a covering letter, click on the file type and select Cover Letter.
Please note: Only Word documents (.doc or .docx) or PDF files can be uploaded.
You can then choose to save the candidate to the database by clicking on "Return To Candidate List".
