A ‘Passive Candidate’ is generally created when a recruiter would like to store some information about a potential candidate who has not yet signed up to your careers site.

Since the rollout of GDPR, there are some things that you should consider prior to storing candidate details, particularly if the details you enter, identify the candidate, for example, an email address.

If you do enter an email address, Tribepad will automatically notify the candidate via email and provide access to their profile (See our full GDPR Handbook for further information).

How to create a Passive Candidate 

Prior to creating a passive candidate, you will need to consider what type of ATS account you are going to create, there are two options;

1 – Create a Passive Record

A passive record can be created if you are not using an email address, for example, you may have found the candidates profile on Linkedin and you wish to store their details with a link to their the Linkedin profile.

If you create a passive record, the candidate will not receive the generated email from Tribepad (as no email has been entered) and their record will remain exactly as you enter it, the candidate will not be logging in to their profile.

2 – Create a Passive Candidate

A passive candidate can be created if you are entering an email address for the candidate.

As mentioned earlier, if you enter the candidate’s email address, an email will be generated automatically to advise the candidate that an account has been created and the candidate will be able to login to their profile and make changes.

It is also worth noting if an email address is not supplied any system generated emails intended for the candidate will be sent to the email address of the user who created the passive account.

If you select option 2, you will need to ensure that you select the checkbox next to the text ‘Create user account with these details (email must be provided).

Passive Candidate creation steps

1. Log in to the ATS and select ‘Profile’ from the top navigation bar
2. Select ‘Passive Candidate’

The ‘Create a candidate’ page will be displayed:

Useful Hints!

The small red asterisk helps to guide you and let you know which fields are mandatory for this process.

Please enter the candidate source (ie, where you met the candidate/how you know about them) in the Source field.

The following checkbox is also available:

• Lock candidate (only you will see contact details)

This checkbox should be ticked if you do not want anyone else to view the candidate details.

If you select the checkbox a pop up will appear prompting you to enter a Lock expiry date and a Reason for Locking the candidate, these are mandatory fields.

A CV can be uploaded by clicking the Browse button.

Once you have completed the required information, clicking the Continue button will register the candidate.

 

The candidate’s details will then be displayed in the Candidate Overview:

From here, the recruiter can add further candidate details and invite or apply the candidate to a job.

Passive Candidate – The Candidate Experience

If you created a passive candidate using the candidate email address, the candidate will have received an email which would have been automatically generated by the ATS.

• The email will look much like the example below but can be configured as with most of the emails that are generated by the ATS.

“Dear Sally
You are receiving this email as notification that Michelle, of Tribepad, has added you to the candidate database at tribepad.com

If you do not wish to remain on this database then please click here to remove your details. If you are happy to remain on this database to allow recruiters to inform you of any jobs that you may be interested in then you do not need to take any further action.

If you do not delete your details then we may keep them for a further 12 months so you can log in any time to update your details and apply for suitable opportunities. If you choose to log in, you will need to collect your password by using the Forgot Password link on the login page at https://demo.tribepad.com/members – the username for your account will be the address you received this email to. We do not send passwords in emails for security reasons.

Best regards,
The Demo Resourcing Team”

• The purpose of this communication is to notify the candidate that their details have been used and allow them to delete their details or proceed and complete their profile and apply for roles..

If the candidate decides to delete their account, they will select the link within the email and a page will appear much like the example below, the candidate will select the option ‘I agree, please remove my details’.

• At this point, the candidate’s record would be removed from the ATS.

.

 

 

 

 

• If the candidate would like to proceed with an application, they will select the ATS link within the email and select the ‘forgotten password’ option.
• The pop up much like the example on the left will appear allowing the user to set a password.

 

 

 

 

 

Once the password is set, the first page that the candidate will see will look much like the example below ‘Changes to your account’.

This page allows the candidate to select their own options in terms of how they wish to be communicated with by you as a business.

The candidate is not obligated to select all of the checkboxes with the exception of the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.

If the candidate decided not to select the checkbox ‘I want recruiters to contact me about other suitable opportunities’ it will mean that you may only converse with them about the current role.  If you try to invite them to apply for another role via the ATS, you would be prevented from doing so.    You cannot change or select candidate opt-in selections for the candidate.

Once the candidate has made their selections, they will be free to navigate and complete their profile and search for jobs.

 

 

When a candidate has been interviewed and a decision made to offer the vacancy, recruiters can complete an Offers questionnaire to record any information relating to the job offer.  This could be useful for future auditing, and for informing other managers and recruiters who have permission to review the questionnaire, ie if they are making the offer on your behalf.

For more details on creating an Offer questionnaire, see Offer questionnaires.

Offer questionnaires can be viewed or completed by clicking on the Offers questionnaire icons or options in the application stages of the ATS:

 

Completing an Offer Questionnaire

To complete an Offer questionnaire, enter answers for all the required questions and click the Finish button.  If you miss any required questions you will be prompted to answer them before the completed questionnaire can be submitted successfully:

When a candidate has been interviewed, recruiters can complete an Interview feedback questionnaire to provide additional review information, and to make suggestions as to whether the candidate should be rejected or considered for progressing further. This could be useful for future auditing, and for informing other managers and recruiters how the candidate performed at the interview.

For more details on creating an Interview feedback questionnaire, see Interview feedback questionnaires.

Interview feedback questionnaires can be viewed or completed by clicking on the Interview feedback icons or options in the application stages of the ATS:

When you’ve created or selected the questions you’d like to use to filter your candidate applications, you’ll need to put them into a Questionnaire.  It’s easy to do – here’s how –

 

In the Questionnaire Builder, use the Add Question button to insert questions into your questionnaire:

This will display the Add Question pop-up.

You can select pre-defined questions by browsing through the list displayed (use the arrows at the bottom right of the screen to scroll through the list) or type your question in the Search questions box provided.  As you type the question, a filter will be applied to display only questions that match your word or phrase.

To select questions from the list, tick the checkbox for the question(s) you would like to use:

The Type icon located to the left of each question indicates the Question Type:

		Radio Buttons	– Answer is selected by radio button
		SJT	– Situational Judgement Test
		Drop-Down List	– Answer is selected from a dropdown
		Checkboxes	– Answers are selected by checkbox
		Single Field	– Answer is entered into a single field
		Textarea box	– Answer is entered into a text box

Click the Insert button to insert the question(s) into your questionnaire.  The questions will then be listed in the Questionnaire Builder.

Each question has all or some of the following options:

• Question – this can be amended if required
• Guidelines for user – enter any additional guidelines you want to appear with the question
• Required question – tick to ensure the questionnaire cannot be submitted without an answer to this question
• Killer question – tick to ensure the question is enabled as a ‘killer question’
• Answer visible to privileged managers only – tick to ensure the answer is only visible to privileged managers
• Choices and Score – list of answers and associated scores that can be amended if required, see section below
• Answer rows and Scoring columns – Situational Judgement Test questions only, see section below

Example of a Radio Buttons question in the Questionnaire Builder:

Editing choices and scores

The Choices and Score fields can be amended by editing the text.

The ‘thumbs-up’ and ‘thumbs-down’ icons indicate a ‘correct answer’ and a ‘incorrect answer’ respectively.  Clicking on the icon will swap the icon between ‘thumbs-up’ or ‘thumbs-down’.

Choices can be removed by clicking the – button next to the question to be removed

Choices can be added by clicking the + button below the list of choices.

 

Editing SJT answers and scores

SJT answers and scores can be changed by amending the text.

To change a scoring column heading click on the pencil icon on the heading you wish to change.  Click on X to remove the original header and enter the new header, then press return to close.

To add a row click on the + button located below the last row.

To delete a row click on the trashcan icon located to the right of the row and click Yes.

To add a column click on the + button located to the right of the column headings.

To delete a column hover the mouse over the column heading to display a trashcan icon.  Click on the trashcan and click Yes.

 

Linking questions or choices to another question

A branching questionnaire accommodates different answers you may be given, and can change the direction of your questioning.  By giving the candidate a variety of options, you can link further questions to each answer type –

Click on the Link to question button for the question or choice you want to link a question to.  This will open the Add Question pop-up and you can then select the question you want to link to.  Click the Insert button to insert the question into your questionnaire.  The question will then be listed in the Questionnaire Builder:

A linked question can be edited or deleted in exactly the same way as un-linked question.

If you want to remove the link to a question’s parent, but keep the question listed in the questionnaire, click the x on the linked question:

 

Questionnaire layout

To re-locate questions in the list, click on the question and drag and drop to the desired location.  It’s probably better to put a killer question, for example ‘do you have the right to work in the UK’ first, so that if there’s a risk of your candidate being rejected from giving the incorrect answer, they haven’t invested time in the rest of your questions only to be rejected.

You can also insert a page break between different types of questions if you wish – this will stop the candidate seeing the upcoming questions ahead.

 

To insert a page break, click the Insert Page Break button.  This will place a page break at the bottom of your list of questions:

To re-locate the page break, click on the Page Break box and drag and drop to the desired location.

To add further questions, click the Add Question button.

 

Deleting questions

To delete questions or page breaks, click the x button located on the top right of the question or page break box.  Click Yes to confirm:

Saving your questionnaire
