Candidate applications can be entered into the system in different ways. The easiest way they can be entered into EasyCruit is via the company's career website. By applying for a position that is published to the company website, the applicant enters their own details, as dictated by the vacancy for which they are applying. The other method is to have manually submitted applications from potential candidates entered into EasyCruit by a recruiter. This option requires more work from EasyCruit users, but is provided to ensure that no potential applicants are left out of the system.
As soon as a vacancy is available on a career website, applicants can apply and EasyCruit begins to receive those applications.
Using the Company Website
The company website, which is designated as a vacancy's publishing channel during the creation process, is the main source of applications in EasyCruit. Applications that come through the website are automatically associated with the corresponding vacancy and are easily accessible from the Application Handling tab for a vacancy.
The options selected in EasyCruit are reflected in the application form on the website, and so controls the information that is provided by the candidate. The Personal details options selected below are then included with the vacancy when it is published to the vacancy website, as seen in the following image.
Adding a Candidate Manually
Applications that are submitted manually, such as applicants who have emailed their applications outside of EasyCruit, must be added to the system by the recruiter. The Add Candidate feature enables recruiters to manually add a candidate to a vacancy in EasyCruit. The feature can also be used to add other types of candidates, such as prospects and employees. For more information on candidate types refer to Candidate Types.
