Review and sift responses

When a candidate submits an application they are categorised as a New Response. The candidate then needs to be sifted and progressed through the vacancy workflow.

You can access New Responses through the Candidates widget on the dashboard or within the vacancy.

On the Live Vacancies list, the number of New Responses for each vacancy is displayed in the column with the envelope icon.

Review responses

In the vacancy > New Responses, select a candidate and change between tabs to review the following:

• Answers to Application Questions.

• C.V., if included.

• Contact Details.

• Previous Apps: Any vacancies the candidate has previously applied for.

You can also select the cog icon then More Details to review the full application and access more information related to the candidate, including previous application forms, CV, and notes.

The distance between the candidates address and the vacancy postcode is also displayed in the candidate row.

Sift responses

Once you have reviewed the candidate information you can use the flag icons to sift them.

Select one or multiple candidates, and then one of the following:

• Green flag/ Sift Green

• Yellow flag/ Sift Amber

• Red flag/ Sift Red

You could use the flags to sort the candidates into yes, maybe, and no, or any other categorising system you choose.
