How to change Application status

Status shows where the person is in hiring. You can change status from the list or from the application.

Before you start

• You must be signed in.
• These roles can change status: owner, administrator, hiring manager, and Office Administrator.
• If you are a hiring manager, you can change status for applications on Careers where you are the hiring manager.
• If you are an Office Administrator, you can change status for applications in offices that you administer.

Status values

• Draft — the application is not submitted.
• Submitted — the application is in the list for review.
• Shortlisted — the team selected the person for more review.
• Interviewing — the person is in interviews.
• Hired — you selected the person for the role.
• Rejected — you did not select the person.
