Lock a candidate record in Recruiting

Describes how to lock a candidate's record in Recruiting.

This article is for administrators.

 

Overview

When you hire someone, it is a good idea to lock their record. After you lock a candidate, only their contact information and resume are visible.

Locking a candidate hides Comments, Offers Details, Metadata, and Attachments from all non-administrator users. Administrators can still view the entire record.

Note: If you hire a candidate who becomes an administrator or staffing user, delete their candidate record.

Lock a candidate record after a new hire

  1. Go to the Candidate's Record.
  2. Select the Info icon () to open the Candidate Info screen. 
  3. Select Lock Record.
