Manage candidate and document folders

Describes how administrators can use these folders in Recruiting to organize their candidates and related documents.

This article is for administrators

 

Overview

Folders are a helpful way to organize candidates and documents.

You can use folders and documents to save candidates for jobs that haven’t been posted yet, to keep track of people with certain skills, and to make a library of documents you might need for hiring.

Sharing: 

  • You can share only subfolders with other users. 
  • You cannot share your entire Candidates or Documents library.

If a candidate becomes inactive, they still stay in your folders.

If you remove a candidate from a folder, it doesn’t change their status or their history on their Candidate Profile Page.

Candidates will remain in your folders until you manually remove them.
