Pending Resumes are resumes that have been uploaded to the system but haven’t been fully processed or assigned to any job or candidate profile yet. This feature acts as a holding area for recruiter review.
How Pending Resumes Work:
When resumes are uploaded through:
- Bulk resume uploads
- CSV imports
- Email parsing (e.g., jobs@yourcompany.com)
- Vendor submissions without direct job assignment
These resumes land in the Pending Resumes section.
Steps to Access and Review Pending Resumes:
-
Go to the “Candidates” Module
- From the left navigation panel, select Candidates.
-
Open the “Pending Resumes” Tab
- Click on the “Pending Resumes” tab.
- Here, you’ll find all unassigned or unparsed resumes listed.
-
Review Resume Details
- The system attempts to auto-parse basic data (name, email, phone).
- If parsing fails or is partial, you may be prompted to complete missing fields.
-
Assign to a Job
- Select the resume and click “Assign to Job”.
- Choose the appropriate job and pipeline stage.
- Fill in missing candidate information and click Save.
-
Delete or Archive (Optional)
- If a resume is invalid or not needed, choose to delete or archive it.
Benefits:
- Avoids missing resumes in bulk workflows.
- Ensures human verification before pipeline entry.
- Keeps candidate records clean and organized.
