View Candidates in a Req

• After qualified candidates are identified for the position, they can be moved through the hiring process. Typically, this is performed within the req folder.

• Column headings in a grid and display candidates are output fields. Your organization opted for certain output fields to appear as defaults in BrassRing.

• Output fields are based on the information that is fielded from resumes or CVs, providing you with a candidate’s most recent information, such as specific contact, employment, or education information.

• The [Codes field] displays the most recent code information for candidates, and is assigned each time that a candidate applies through a Talent Gateway. Based on your user type, select the hyperlinked string of codes to access a candidate’s code history.

• When viewing a candidate in a req, the candidate's Resume or CV submitted when they applied, is the Resume or CV shown when viewing the Talent Record. Even if that Resume or CV is not the most recently submitted Resume or CV.

• After the candidate has applied to a job, they cannot change the Resume or CV they submitted for that job.

• Req related information is provided in the [Filter] section of the candidate listing screens. Build 19.05.06. The information displays the current [req number: job title] along with the candidate results context.

  • If the number displayed in the New column in a req listing is selected, the label Showing new candidates in:<req no>:<job title> is displayed.

  • If the number displayed in the Total Active column in a req listing is selected, the label Showing active candidates in:<reqno>:<job title> is displayed.

  • If the Total or any HR status or Candidate type links in a req listing are selected, the label Showing candidates in:<reqno>:<job title> is displayed.

  • A pull-down icon is displayed next to the Showing candidates label which opens an auto-complete text box. The place holder text of the auto-complete text field depends on the type of listing from which the user navigates to the current screen. For example, if the user navigates from My open reqs, then the auto-complete field displays My open Reqs and users can search only for those reqs.

  • Searching and selecting a req from this pull-down menu refreshes the page and displays candidate listing from that searched req.

  • Any filter selection for the previous req is carried over to the next req that is opened.

  • Candidate results are dependent upon the type of candidates selected in the initial candidate listing. If New candidates are selected, only new candidates are displayed in the next req.

  • The filter criteria is not retained after the user navigates away from this req folder.
