Adding Candidates to a Role

With your role built and its questions ready, it's time to bring in the people you'll actually interview. Adding a candidate places them in this role's pipeline, where you can interview them, track how they move through your stages, and manage their recording consent. You can enter someone from scratch, import a resume, or pull in a candidate you already have on file.

Adding Candidates from a Role

1. Open the role
2. Click Add Candidate
3. Search for candidates by name
4. Select one or more candidates
5. Click the Add button

Tip: To find your roles, hover over the Lavalier icon in the top-left corner and click Roles, then search for or select the role you need.

Importing Several Résumés at Once

If you're starting from a batch of résumés rather than candidates already on file, you can create them all in one pass.

1. Open the role and click Add Candidate
2. In the search dialog, click Import Résumé(s)
3. Drag in or select up to 25 PDF or Word files
4. Click through the import

Lavalier creates the candidates in the background and adds them to this role's pipeline, so you don't have to wait on the dialog—they'll appear in the role within a few minutes.

From a Candidate's Profile

You can also add a candidate to a role directly from their profile page.

1. Open the candidate's profile
2. Click Add [Name] to New Role
3. Search for and select the role
4. Click Add to Role

With candidates in your pipeline, you're ready to talk to them — set up your first conversation, whether you start it now or schedule it for later.
