2. Sorting and managing your candidates
Aptrack V2 offers a number of ways to group and manage your candidates, before sending responses on an individual or group basis.
The primary feature is the opportunity to easily colour code your candidates into 3 groups or statuses* For example, ' Rejected', 'On Hold' and 'Invite for Interview'.
* depending on account set up - more statuses may be added.
To sort your candidates into groups, please follow the instructions below:
When you have received new applicants for any position, you will see the 'New' icon in the candidate list:
To view the application, it's source, CV and all associated details, click on the candidate name.
To view the candidates CV (if attached), click on the Paperclip icon and select open or save file.
You will now view the application in the main display window (as seen below). From here you will need to select a status for the application.
Depending on the account set up, you will have the option to select one of the above options, ' Rejected', 'On Hold' and 'Invite for Interview'.
To do this, simply click on the corresponding colour box.
(The drop down menus here are for sending responses - covered in the ' Responding to your Candidates' article)
Please note; selecting a status will not yet send a response to the candidate. You are just pre-sorting the applications.
Having worked through a number of applications, and grouped them accordingly, you will see the corresponding colour bars in the applicant panel to the left.
To resort this list, and group the candidates together, use the refresh icon at the top of the Aptrack screen:

(Having selected a status for the candidates, you will see a 'forwarded' arrow next to the candidate's name.
This shows that this application has now been forwarded from Aptrack, to the consultant's email address.)
You can change the status of the applications at any time;
Simply view candidates in the main window, or use the check boxes to muti-select, and then re-select the required status.
When you have selected the status for your candidtaes, you are able to respond individually or on a group level.
