Hiding hired candidate details

You can restrict the timelines of hired candidates from new users on your account. You may want to do this so that new hires are not able to view the text of comments and evaluations that were left on their profile. And to protect the privacy of others at your company.

Adjusting the visibility setting

This option is on by default but can be adjusted by Admin users.

1. Visit the profile icon menu
2. Navigate to Settings > Privacy
3. Flip the toggle on or off and save your changes

Candidates that are affected:

• Anyone in the Hired stage of any job

Account users that are affected:

• Anyone (regardless of their permission) added to your account after candidates have been moved to the Hired stage 

 

What account users see

This feature only impacts candidates who were hired before the new user was added to your Workable account. Candidates hired after the user is added to the account will be visible as usual.

When a candidate's timeline is restricted, new users on your account will see the text blurred out under it, as well as other tabs and the candidate overview. The Offer tab (if present) will be removed completely when a candidate's timeline is in restricted view.

 

Manage timeline visibility

Super admins or Recruiting admins who were existing account members when the candidate was hired or have been granted access to hired candidates at a later stage can grant or revoke access to specific candidates' timelines.  

When a candidate has been moved to the ‘Hired’ stage of your pipeline, and the restricted view is on by default, an ‘eye’ icon is displayed in the menu bar.

1. Click the eye icon to manage timeline visibility and reveal the hiring team members who can view the full profile.
2. To grant access to more team members, click Add member and type their names. Those who are already members of the hiring team for this job will be auto-suggested as you type. To remove members from this list, click the small X next to their name.
3. Once ready, click Update.
