April 2024: Simplify Candidate Categorization - Introducing New Badges

To enhance your candidate categorization and organization process, we've introduced a new badge system for your favorite candidate profiles:

The available badges are:

- ⭐️ Favorite

- 👍 Like

- 📌 Bookmark

- 🔔 Follow-up

- 🔰 Entry-Level

To assign a badge to a candidate:

1) Click on "CANDIDATES" in the top navigation menu.

2) Select and open the profile of the candidate you want to assign a badge to.

3) Click on the blue "EDIT CANDIDATE" button.

4) Scroll down the candidate profile form to the "SUMMARY" section, click the dropdown, and select the badge category for the candidate. Currently, you can assign only one badge per candidate.

5) Click on "UPDATE CANDIDATE" to save your changes.

You'll see the candidate badges in the candidate listing of the candidate search section: https://hireplanner.com/backend/candidates

Each candidate badge will appear on the right side of the candidate row (refer to the screenshot attached below).

⚠️ You can now search for candidates based on the badges assigned to them by clicking on the "badges" dropdown located on the top right of the page (refer to the attached visual).

⚠️ Additionally, you can now search for candidate applications (not profiles) based on the badges assigned to candidates.
