Candidate drawer

This article describes the Candidate drawer feature within the recruitment module.

The Candidate drawer is a dynamic side panel within the recruitment module that allows you to quickly view and interact with a candidate's profile, without navigating away from the main applicant list or pipeline view. It provides a centralized space for accessing all relevant candidate information and taking action efficiently.

To open the drawer, access your recruitment project and click on the candidate card in the Board tab or the candidate/applicant name in other tabs.

Navigation and actions

The top bar allows you to:

1. Move the candidate through the pipeline steps
2. Navigate between candidates
3. The three-dot button opens the possibility to:
   • Remove this candidate from the pipeline
   • Generate Candidate report
   • Format CV with HireAra integration
4. The cross button will close this candidate drawer.
