Candidate Selection Process

The candidate selection process provides the framework to move candidates through the hiring process to evaluate and find the best candidates for a job. An analogy can be drawn between the candidate selection process and moving candidate resumes from one pile to another as the selection progresses and the number of resumes retained is reduced. For example, a candidate submission is analyzed, the candidate is contacted, interviewed, then hired.

Candidate selection processes are created by your administrator. They typically consist of steps (such as New, Interview, Offer, Background Check, Hire), and each step offers a variety of statuses to mark the progress of candidates. When you create a requisition, the system presents the most appropriate process for your requisition. Candidate submissions must go through the selection process as defined in the requisition.
