Occasionally you may need to add an applicant to the system who has applied via a hard copy form m (i.e. where they have emailed or posted an application rather than applied online).
Adding these applicants to the system gives you the benefit of being able to shortlist and track their application in the same way as online applicants.
To add a hard copy applicant take the following steps;
1. Find the required vacancy and click on the title to enter the Application summary page.
2. Click Add Applicant
3. Enter the applicant’s details and click Search to check if they already have an account – if they do the system will pull in their previous details:
4. If the applicant appears in the list click Select by their name. If not choose Add New Applicant.
5. You’ll see the first page of the application form - check the applicant’s information is filled in and click Save at the bottom of the page.
6. If you wish to fill in any further pages of the application form - for example Equal Opportunities - use the ‘Go to Page’ dropdown to navigate to these.
The applicant will now be on the applicant list under the status ‘Requested Pack’ - you can change this to Applied if you wish to consider them along with other applicants.
