From Applicant to Hire: Overview The Candidate Selection Workflow (CSW) reflects how Carnegie Mellon University wants to move a candidate through its hiring process. In the old paper processes, recruiters may have used folders to organize candidates who were in different steps of the selection process. Similarly, in Taleo, there are workflow Steps that represent the steps in your hiring process. The details of each Step are called Statuses. Once a candidate has reached a completion Status, the Status that finishes that Step, he or she can be moved to the next Step. A completion Status is indicated by an * in the drop-down menu.
Changing a Candidate Step/Status As described in the From Applicant to Hire: Overview, moving a candidate through the Taleo system requires you to save a step and a status before the candidate can be moved forward. Change Status: Allows you to move a candidate to a different Status within the current Step. The candidate remains in the current Step after this change. Change Step: Allows you to move a candidate to another Step (either the next Step or in some cases candidates can skip Steps). The candidate progresses to a different Step from the original Step after this change. 1. Select and view the candidate you wish to work with (see Viewing A Candidate) 3. Use the drop down menus to change the Step/Status and Save. 2. From the More Actions menu select Change Step/Status. Note about Save and Continue vs. Save and Close: Use Save and Continue to continue moving a candidate through to the next status/step. Use Save and Close if you have advanced the candidate as far as you want to at this time.
