Review and move candidates forward
Find candidates who need attention, review their evidence, and record the next hiring step.
Use Review as your daily decision board across open positions. It brings together candidates who need attention and shows their hiring stage.
Review a candidate
- Open Review from the main navigation.
- Filter by position if you are working on one role.
- Start in Needs review.
- Open a candidate's report.
- Review the resume, video answers, transcripts, assessments, notes, and any trust signals.
- Return to Review and choose the next step.
An overall score summarizes available evidence. It is a sorting aid, not a hiring decision. Always review the supporting evidence.
Understand the columns
- Needs review: the candidate is waiting for an initial decision.
- Shortlist: the candidate may be a strong match.
- Interview: the candidate is moving through live interviews.
- Offer: the team is preparing or managing an offer.
- Hired: the hiring process is complete.
- Rejected: the application is closed.
Move a candidate only after checking that the selected stage matches the team's real decision.
If a completed candidate is missing
Journey completion is intended to move a candidate into Review, but this may not happen consistently. Open the position's Pipeline or Board, confirm the journey is complete, and move the candidate to the appropriate review stage.
Review trust signals fairly
Trust and authenticity signals point to activity that may deserve a closer look. They do not prove fraud and should not automatically reject a candidate.
For applications with elevated fraud signals, open Candidates, then Flagged. Review the details, document your decision, and follow your organization's policy. See Review flagged applications.
Use blind review
If your organization has enabled blind review, identifying details may be hidden during early screening. This helps the team focus on job-related evidence. Identity may become visible later according to your organization's policy.
Learn more in Use blind review.
Make changes to several candidates
The position's Pipeline may offer bulk actions such as moving stages, rejecting, or marking candidates as hired. Review the selected names and action carefully before confirming.
Keep the queue useful
- Review new work each business day.
- Record a clear next step for every candidate you open.
- Follow up on missing interviewer feedback.
- Use scores to prioritize, then use evidence and human judgment to decide.
