How to save a candidate shortlist to a folder and come back to it
Filter candidates, tick the ones you want, add them to a new or existing folder, and reopen the folder any time from the Folders filter.
A good shortlist is worth keeping. In Recruitly you put search results into a folder, a hotlist you can reopen whenever the next similar job comes in.
Watch it on Recruitly Play (2 min 7 s), part of the Master the search bar series.
Add candidates to a folder
- In Candidates, run a search, for example the Job Titles filter set to HR Manager.
- Tick the candidates you want. The bulk actions menu appears at the top.
- Click More, then Add to Folder.
- Pick an existing folder, or click + Create Folder, name it and click Create.
- Click Add to Folders.
Open the folder later
In Filters, scroll to Folders, choose the folder and click Apply.
The hotlist builder agent can build these lists for you. See candidate sourcing too.
