You can quickly find an application to an opportunity, event or talent bank using the search box located at the top of the left-hand menu.
SEARCHING FOR AN APPLICATION
- Search using first name, last name, email address or application ID
- When looking for a candidate's application, you can search using their first name, last name, full name, email address or application ID.
- If the application you are searching for is anonymised, you will only be able to search using their application ID.
- Application searches default to 'begins with'
- Examples of application name searches:
- To find applications by a candidate named "Steve Burnett," you can:
- Enter the first name (e.g. "Steve").
- Enter the last name (e.g. "Burnett").
- Enter the full name (e.g. "Steve Burnett").
- Enter the first name and partial last name (e.g. "Steve B").
- Enter the full last name and partial first name separated by a comma (e.g. "Burnett, Ste").
- To find applications by a candidate named "Steve Burnett," you can:
- Viewing search results:
- Search results will display in the left-hand menu under the 'Applications' heading.
- Up to 5 matching applications will be shown.
- The candidate's email address and associated opportunity/event/talent bank are displayed below their name.
- Applications are sorted by descending ID number, displaying the most recent application first.
- Click an application to load their 'Application Summary' record.
- To view the full list of applications in the main body of the page, click 'Show all'.
Navigate directly to an application using the "a: [id number]" prefix
- When you type in an ID number or title into the search box, the system then displays the results in the left-hand menu and you can click on an item to load it.
- If you know the application's ID number, you can navigate straight to the application by using the prefix "a: [id number]" and then hitting enter.
- For example, if the application's ID number is "119" enter "a: 119" into the search box and hit enter.
SEARCHING FOR A CANDIDATE
If you have access to the 'Candidates' module, you can also find candidate records within the search results. You can navigate to a candidate’s record and view all their applications.
- Candidate search works the same as application search:
- The candidate search function operates the same way as the application search function.
- Search results for candidates are listed under the 'Candidates' heading.
- Candidate's record will show even if they have not made an application:
- If a candidate has created an account but has not yet started an application, they will still show in the candidates' results.
