Why add tags to the candidates?

The main purposes of adding tags when screening candidates are:

• Help organize candidate profiles
• Streamline the review process
• Highlight candidate's suitability for position and improvement of company culture
• Provide a more objective assessment
   

How do tags work?

Adding tags to the application adds them directly to the candidate's profile.
When you add a candidate from your talent pool to a job posting, the application displays the tags previously assigned to the candidate.

How to assign and create tags?

There are two different ways to assign and create tags, through a job application and with Tag Manager in the ATS Settings

Assign and create tags through an application:

1. On your sidebar, click on Recruitment
2. Select a candidate either from the Jobs or Candidates section
3. Click on Add tag
4. Start typing to create a new tag
5. Click to create and add tag to the candidate

Tags can be added to a candidate from the candidate's application and from the candidate's profile. When adding a tag to the suggestions, it first shows existing tags, and contextually suggests creation if the user enters a tag that doesn't exist.

Assign and create tags through the tag manager (ATS Settings)

Tag Manager allows users to create, edit, or permanently delete tags. 

1. On your sidebar, click on Settings
2. Select Recruitment
3. Scroll down to Tag manager
4. Click on Manage tags
5. Type tag name and Save

Edit and delete tags from Tag Manager

To edit:

1. Start typing changes in the tag
2. Save

To delete:

1. Click trash icon next to tag
2. Check box to confirm (the tag will be removed from assigned candidates)
3. Delete tag
