Rate candidates and add notes

Updated

Ratings and notes help you and your team compare candidates without a separate spreadsheet. Candidates never see either.

Rate a candidate

Click a star, from 1 to 5, in the Rating column on the job page or next to the candidate's name on their page. Click another star to change it.

Rating a candidate also clears their To review badge, which marks candidates in Applied who have no rating yet.

Ratings of archived candidates are locked. Unarchive the candidate to change it.

Add a note

  1. Open the candidate from the job page.
  2. In Notes, type in Add a note about this candidate.
  3. Click Add note.

Notes show the author's name and the time, newest first. Everyone on your team can read them. Notes can't be edited or deleted after adding, so keep them factual.

If a teammate who wrote notes is removed from the team, their notes stay and show as Deleted user.
