Advanced Filtering of Candidates within the ATS
It’s often a very time consuming task to prepare your shortlist when you have a high volume role. That’s why we created Advanced Filtering to help you save so much time, so for example, you can quickly filter against all candidates who have completed their pre-screening questionnaire and have also passed all the killer questions in that questionnaire.
To use advanced filtering, select the icon displayed below from within your candidate processing page.
Now you will be presented with your filtering option.
- Completed and passed killer questions: This will filter all candidates who have completed their pre-screening questionnaire and have passed all (if any) killer questions contained within that questionnaire. You may elect to shortlist all of these candidates if the closing date for the role has passed.
- Incomplete applications: This will show you all applicants who have not completed their pre-screening questionnaire. If the closing date of the job has passed, you may want to reject all these candidates.
- Failed killer question: This will show you all candidates who have failed the killer questions in their pre-screening questionnaire. You may elect to reject all these candidates.
- Score >: This will allow you to see any candidates who have scored above a certain score in their pre-screening questionnaire. Another useful shortlisting tool.
- Question: / Answer(s): This allows you to check for specific answers to one or more questions. As an example, in your pre-screening questionnaire, you may ask your candidates how much experience in the relevant field they have, then filtering for any candidates with 10+ years experience.
- Skills: Allows you to search for any skills you may find desirable that the candidate has listed in the skills area of their profiles.
- Location: Allows you to search for candidates within a specified distance of a certain location. This could be useful if you don’t want your job seekers to commute more than a certain distance.
- Interview Stage: Allows you to search for any candidates t a certain stage of your interview process for this role.
- Right-to-Work status: Here you can filter out those who answer your RTW question (where this integration exists) as passed, failed, pending review, document not provided
- Tribepad Video Interview Status: Filter Complete/Incomplete interviews plus those with/without downvotes
- Candidate Type: External, Internal, Passive Candidate, Agency Candidate
