Resume
The resume tab in a candidate's profile is a key feature for managing candidate resumes directly within their profile. If a candidate hasn’t uploaded a resume, you’ll see options to either request one from the candidate or upload it manually. By requesting a resume, a pre-written message is sent to the candidate, which you can customize before sending. Once the resume is uploaded, you can view it in the tab and manage attachments, including setting a new file as the resume if needed. This ensures that you always have the most up-to-date resume on file.
Key Steps
- If a candidate does not have a resume, click on the "Ask for a resume" button to prompt the candidate to submit their resume. Edit the message template provided before sending it out to the candidate. Ensure to include the submit resume token in the message for the candidate to upload their resume.
- Once the candidate submits the resume, you can view it in the candidate's profile under the resume tab.
- Alternatively, to upload a resume on behalf of the candidate, click on the "Upload resume" button and either drag and drop the file or choose a file from your device.
- If you need to update the resume with a new file, click on "Add attachment" in the candidate's profile and upload the new resume there. Once the file is uploaded, an icon will appear next to the file that says "Set this file as a resume" when you hover over it. Clicking it will set the new file as the candidate's resume.
