What happens with draft data entered by candidates when they fill an application flow?

Draft data that candidates enter while completing a job application flow or request information flow is saved.

Here's how it works:

  • The data is saved every 10 seconds. A candidate can drop off from the process and start over when ready, without losing any data.
  • A candidate can access the flow using the URL provided in the notification they received or by accessing their candidate self service. If draft data was saved for a flow, it will be loaded when the flow is loaded.
  • Draft data can't be viewed by recruiters or hiring managers. They can only be accessed by the candidate.
  • When a candidate doesn't interact with the draft data for 30 days, data is automatically removed.
  • When a candidate profile is updated after the draft data was saved, profile data will update the saved draft data.

When a candidate is done completing all the pages of a flow, the info becomes visible to recruiters and hiring managers.
