Application pipeline - overview
You can give employers a Kanban board for each job. Applicants show up as cards in hiring stages such as Screening and Interview, and employers drag a card to the next stage as they move through the process.
What you can do
Section titled “What you can do”- Set stages per board. Each job board has its own stages, so an Engineering board and a Sales board can hire differently.
- Move applicants by dragging. The Kanban board shows one column per stage. Each column loads 25 cards at a time and has a Load more button.
- End a process with an outcome. A stage can carry the outcome Hired or Rejected. Moving a card there sets the application status to match.
- Color the stages. Each stage has a color for its column.
- Open one job’s board from the employer dashboard. Each job row has a Pipeline button. See Hiring Pipeline page.
Default stages
Section titled “Default stages”A board with no stages gets a default set. The default stages are:
- Screening
- Interview
- Offer
- Hired (outcome: Hired)
- Rejected (outcome: Rejected)
You can rename, recolor, reorder or delete any of them. See Configuring pipeline stages.
Board and status stay in sync
Section titled “Board and status stay in sync”A card’s column and the application’s status follow each other.
- Moving a card into a Hired or Rejected stage sets that status. The candidate gets the normal status message once.
- Moving a card out of a Hired or Rejected stage sets the status back to Reviewing.
- If the status changes somewhere else, such as the applications list, the card moves to match. Hired and Rejected go to the stage with that outcome, if the board has one.
- Withdrawn, Position closed and Job removed applications leave the board. You cannot move them, and the board shows a message if you try.
- A card that was off the board, or in a Hired or Rejected stage, goes back to the first column when its application returns to a working status.
