Profile Details

The candidate profile details refer to comprehensive information about an individual candidate gathered during the recruitment process. This typically includes their personal information, such as name, contact details, and address, as well as professional information like work experience, education, skills, certifications, and any other relevant details.

The importance of adding and managing a candidate profile can be outlined as follows:

  • Detailed candidate profiles enable you to manage and track candidates efficiently throughout the recruitment process. This includes storing contact information, resume/CV, application history, interview feedback, and other relevant data in a centralised location.
  • Having comprehensive candidate details allows you to personalise communication with candidates. This includes sending tailored emails, SMS, or scheduling personalised follow-up meetings based on candidate's stage in the recruitment process.
  • With access to comprehensive candidate details, you can easily assess candidates' qualifications, skills, experiences, and suitability for specific roles.
