!!!MAINTAIN CANDIDATES PROFILE
The Maintain Candidate Profile screen allows you to maintain information on candidates who are available for [postings|JOB POSTINGS] within the company.

The system helps recruiters and job seekers maintain an up-to-date pool of potential candidates available for job openings.

Candidates are individuals seeking employment with the organization. They may be current employees, prior employees or individuals who have never worked for the organization.

[Candidate profiles|CANDIDATE PROFILES] can be submitted before or after job openings are available. Often job seekers like to submit their resumes for future consideration and be informed when jobs become available.

Candidates are uniquely identified by a candidate code that is automatically generated. The date of submission is recorded and the source (mail, email, web, etc.) is noted.

The amount of candidate information the system can hold is extensive - demographic data, contact information, work history details, qualifications, education, references, and assessment information. You may, however, block sensitive information such as government ID or gender.
