Move To Stage Process

Available Stages:

• Application First stage of Job placement flow (Application> Submittal>Interview>Offer> Placement)
• Submittal The Second Stage of Job application flow. This is when the recruiter sends the Candidate CV to the client, a sort of first introduction.
• Send Out The third Stage of Job application flow. This is when the recruiter sets up a job interview between Candidate and Client.
• Offer The fourth Stage of Job application flow. This is when the candidate is offered the position (details about salary, locations etc are shared and candidate decides if he wants to take the job)
• Closing Report Fifth Stage of Job placement flow, a Candidate that reaches the Closing Report Placement stage has been assigned to a job. In Bullhorn Recruitment Cloud, a 'Closing Report' is a record that captures all the information related to the newly filled position (name of Candidate, position, salary, start date, which recruiter gets credit for the hire etc.)

Status in Stage:

• C = Current
• A = Accepted
• R = Rejected

When a Candidate or Job Card If in the context of ATS, a 'card' or 'tile' is the visual representation on the ATS board of a Candidate at various stages of the application process is moved to a stage, two actions occur:

• A record for the destination stage is created that has a Job Manager The name of a Bullhorn Recruitment Cloud legacy application used in older versions of the product with similar fiunctionalities to ATS tool. Stage Status of Current.
• The record from the previous stage is updated so that the Job Manager Stage Status is Accepted.
  

The Job Reporting Object

Job Reporting has a Master-Detail relationship to Job and Lookup relationships to Contact, Application, Submittal, Send Out, Offer and Closing Report. The Composite Key field stores the ContactID+JobID and is used to make the correct association of Candidate and Job.

A Job reporting record is created or updated in the background for every Move To Stage action. The Job Reporting Related List does not need to be on the page layout as end users do not need to interact with it, but System Administrator need to be aware of it as it is useful for reporting and troubleshooting purposes.

Troubleshooting

• If any of the Job Stage records are deleted, the corresponding Job Reporting record(s) must be deleted manually. Not doing this will result in bad data in the system and cause errors or Candidates being associated to incorrect stages or visualized incorrectly in Bullhorn ATSKanban.
• If any Candidate on a Job has a duplicate Job Reporting record it may prevent that or any other Candidate from being moved to a different stage on the Job.
