The talent pool in the recruitment module is to hold applicants who have previously shown interest in joining the organisation and is not a tool to manage vacancies and applications.
â
You can update someone there mainly for admin or record-keeping reasons, such as:
Keeping their details up to date: if their contact info such as phone, address, etc.is missing or outdated, you can update it directly in the Talent Pool.
Maintaining a pool of interested candidates: it stores people whoâve shown interest in working with your organisation, so you can keep their information for future opportunities.
Filtering out candidates: you can mark someone as 'not for us' if theyâre not a good fit going forward.
So, in short:
Talent Pool = maintain candidate records.
Vacancies = manage active applications.
