not-right-now job candidate tracking

users: corporate recruiters

problem: sourcing and recruiting for multiple positions and office markets a lot of work. once a candidate is a not-right-now, it’s nearly impossible to remember to follow-up with them once they’ve had time to improve. 

goals: 

• increase reactivation of previously rejected candidates, and

• decrease average time-to-fill certain positions

recruiter outcomes: 

• add a HangOn candidate’s key information (role, market, relevant links, comments, etc)

• select candidate’s level of potential, which determines a calculated follow-up date

• receive email reminders when follow-up dates occur and are overdue

lesson learned: 

• when a product is intended to be quick-use, it’s a good idea to try to eliminate unnecessary thinking or calculation moments
