Candidate status makes it easy for you and your coworkers to know where a certain candidate is in the recruiting process. You will find this in the dropdown menu under each of their names under Candidates.
New and Viewed are automatic, while the rest you and your colleagues can use to mark their status so it's easily available to you. The candidate is not notified of their status, you still have to contact them. You can also easily like or reject them by clicking the thumbs up or down.
Pending improvements:
- Customs status
- Status history
