Gathering Candidate Feedback from Hiring Managers

Using ApplicantStack™ you can request feedback from Hiring Managers and other stakeholders to facilitate a collaborative review of Candidates. Feedback can be simple comments or more structured with a questionnaire. All feedback for a candidate is stored with their candidate record and can be viewed on their Feedback tab.

Create a Candidate Review Task

In most scenarios the preferred way to solicit feedback from a user on a candidate is to create a new Candidate Review Task by clicking Create Task for the candidate. Note that you can do this for a single candidate or select multiple candidates from the table at once. Clicking Create Task brings up the Create Task screen where you can fill in the task details, set up automatic email reminders to the user, and optionally select a Questionnaire to include as part of the feedback request.

When you click Submit the assigned user(s) will receive an email which contains the task details and a link to complete the task.

When the user clicks the link in the email they will be taken to the View Task page where they can view all the candidate information and at the bottom submit feedback for the candidate.

For more details on creating a Candidate Review task see the Tasks and Events Section Guide.

Enter Candidate Feedback from the Feedback Tab

Users who have a login to your system can also enter candidate feedback by going directly to the Feedback Tab for the candidate and selecting the appropriate Questionnaire from your Library:
