Favourites

Bookmark candidates without committing to a decision

2 min readUpdated Nov 1, 2026

Not every candidate is ready to be shortlisted or disqualified right away. Favouriting gives you a way to mark candidates you want to revisit, without changing their status or affecting where they are in the pipeline.

It's a flexible, lightweight layer that sits across your entire hiring workflow, giving you space to pause and reflect before making a final call.

What favouriting does

#
  • Lets you mark candidates at any stage of the pipeline
  • Does not affect stage movement or automation rules
  • Available from both the candidate listing and the detailed report card
  • Aggregates all favourited candidates in a dedicated view for easy review

1. How to favourite a candidate

#

Favouriting is available in two places so you can act quickly whether you're scanning through a list or reviewing a candidate in detail.

a. From the candidate listing

Add to Favourites from Candidate Listing

Click the favourite icon directly on the candidate row. You don't need to open their profile — it's accessible right from the list.

b. From the detailed report card

Add to Favourites from Report Card

When you're reviewing a candidate's full evaluation, the favourite action is available at the top of the report card alongside other primary actions.

To remove a candidate from your Favourites, click the favourite icon again on any candidate that's already been marked.

2. Viewing your favourited candidates

#

To view all your favourited candidates, open the Stages dropdown at the top of the Candidate Listing page and select Favourites. This filters the listing to show only candidates you've bookmarked. You can see each candidate's status, grades, and key profile details at a glance.

3. Actions available on favourited candidates

#

From the Favourites view, you can still take action on candidates based on where they are in the pipeline. Available actions include:

  • Trigger AI Prescreening — send the prescreening questionnaire to the candidate
  • Trigger AI Interview — send the interview invite to the candidate
  • Move to Shortlist — mark the candidate as shortlisted
  • Move to Disqualify — remove the candidate from the pipeline

Favouriting a candidate does not move them out of their current pipeline stage. They continue to be tracked in their original stage — the Favourites view is simply an additional layer for your own reference.
