Hiring Bull supports multiple ways to bring candidates into a job pipeline. Here’s a breakdown:
✅ 1. Manual Entry
- Navigate to Job → Candidates → Add Candidate.
- Enter candidate info manually (basic details, resume, source).
- Useful for walk-ins or phone referrals.
✅ 2. Resume Upload
- Upload a resume file (PDF/DOC).
- The system auto-parses and populates fields (name, email, experience, etc.).
- Edit/fill missing fields before saving.
✅ 3. CSV Bulk Upload
- Go to Candidates tab → Upload CSV.
- Download the sample format.
- Fill candidate data and upload.
- The system will auto-create profiles and assign to the selected job.
✅ 4. Email Parsing
- Forward resumes to a configured Hiring Bull email (e.g., jobs@yourcompany.com).
- Parsed candidates will appear under “Pending Resumes” for assignment.
✅ 5. Vendor Submission
- Vendors with access can upload resumes directly via their portal login.
- You can review, accept, or reject their submissions.
- Permissions can be controlled per job.
✅ 6. Career Page / Job Boards (Auto-import)
- Candidates applying via your career page or integrated job boards are auto-assigned to the linked job.
- Parsed resumes and data flow into the job pipeline.
📌 Recommendation:
Use resume upload and email parsing for quick one-off additions, while CSV and vendor submission work best for volume-based hiring.
