The document section within the candidate summary page acts as a centralised hub for all candidate-related documents for efficient management. Its primary function is to facilitate quick access to essential files, including resumes, cover letters, certifications, and other pertinent documents associated with the candidate's profile or application. Adding folders helps streamline document management, enhances accessibility, and improves overall efficiency in locating and managing files.
To add folders or documents from the Candidate Summary page, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the main navigation header bar and click on Candidates.
- You will find a list of all candidates. By clicking on a candidate, you will be redirected to the Candidate Summary page.
Note: Documents are typically organised within a hierarchical folder structure, making it easy to categorise and locate specific files. Folders can be created and labeled based on criteria such as candidate name, job position, recruitment stage, or document type.
- To create a folder, navigate to the Documents section and click on Add Folder.
- Enter the Folder Name and click Save. Once the folder is added, click on the three-dot button to add documents or folders inside it.
