Candidate notes allow you to collaborate with other users when filling a specific role or building a talent pool. They also provide a method of recording day-to-day recruiting activities, such as job interviews and changes in candidate status.
You can add notes for a candidate in the candidate profile, in a talent pool, in the Candidate Management tab, or in the Candidates tab for a requisition in Recruiting > Job Requisitions. In some cases, you are required to add notes, such as when candidate statuses are configured to require notes in the Improved Recruiter Experience.
In each case, you can view all notes that were added for the candidate in the Add/View Notes dialog box. You can add notes to a candidate's job applications or to their general profile. You can also reply to notes that were added by other users, “like” notes, and tag other users in notes.
The candidate notes functionality is described in more detail in the following topics:
