Navigating the Candidate/Kanban Board

Written by Rohit Venugopal

1. Open a job to access its candidate Kanban board 0:00

  • Go to Jobs and click on any job.

  • You will be taken directly to that job’s Kanban board.

  • This board shows all candidates currently in the pipeline for that role.

  • The overall layout is similar to the older dashboard, so the main workflow should feel familiar.

2. Understand the default pipeline stages 0:20

  • The board includes the familiar Prospects and Invitations columns.

  • You will also see any assessment stages that have been configured for the job.

  • Example: if the job only has a voice assessment / AI interview, that stage will appear on the board.

  • Any additional hiring stages you add will also appear here automatically.

3. Add or edit hiring stages to customize the pipeline 0:37

  • Click Edit Job and go to Hiring Stages.

  • Add a new stage such as a psychometric test or another assessment/interview round.

  • Save/update the hiring stages.

  • Return to View Candidates and the new stage will now appear in the Kanban board.

4. Invite candidates into the pipeline 0:59

  • Use the plus icon to add candidates manually.

  • You can also drag and drop resumes into the board.

  • Another option is to upload a CSV file to invite multiple candidates at once.

  • Once invited, candidates begin completing the configured assessments and move through the pipeline stages.

5. Move candidates based on assessment results 1:18

  • Candidates will appear in stages such as:

    • Hiring Manager

    • Voice Assessment

    • Psychometric Assessment

  • As they complete each round, their scores become available.

  • Use those scores to move candidates into Good Fit or Poor Fit stages.

  • You can also add new stages for additional review or decision points.

6. Schedule interviews automatically for human interview stages 1:29

  • If a stage is a human interview round, you can configure it to automatically schedule a meeting.

  • This helps streamline the process when a candidate is moved into that stage.

  • The scheduling can happen as part of the stage workflow.

7. Use filters to narrow down candidates 1:43

  • Open the Filters panel to refine the candidate list.

  • You can filter by:

    • Application form questions

    • Resume data automatically extracted from candidate resumes

    • Assessment scores

    • Plagiarism scores

    • Proctoring violations

  • Example: filter candidates by a specific voice assessment score and plagiarism percentage.

8. Review application form questions as filter criteria 2:00

  • If your hiring stages include a pre-screening form, its questions become filter options.

  • Example questions shown in the video include:

    • Years of total experience

    • Willingness to work remotely

    • University attended

  • These questions can be used to quickly identify candidates who match your criteria.

9. Clear filters when needed 2:36

  • After applying filters, you can use Clear to remove them.

  • This resets the board view and shows the full candidate list again.

10. Bulk-manage candidates from the board 2:47

  • You can multi-select candidates on the board.

  • Bulk actions include:

    • Moving candidates to another stage

    • Moving candidates to the Reject stage

    • Deleting candidates permanently

  • This makes it easy to manage multiple candidates at once.

11. Manage invitation-stage candidates 3:03

  • If candidates are still in the Invitations column, you can:

    • Resend the invitation

    • Revoke the invitation

  • These actions help you control who still has access to complete the process.

12. View detailed candidate profiles for full context 3:18

  • On the candidate profile or interview page, you can review:

    • The candidate’s application form responses

    • Any completed language proficiency tests

    • Voice assessments

    • Generalist assessments

  • A separate video covers the candidate profile page in more depth.

13. Key takeaway: the board supports filtering, scoring, and stage movement 3:44

The new Kanban board lets you:

  • Filter candidates using form answers, resume data, and assessment results

  • Move candidates between stages in bulk

  • Manage invitations and rejections efficiently
