Applying for jobs can often feel uncertain\u2014you submit your application but have no idea whether recruiters are looking at it or if the job is even active. Hirist\u2019s Recruiter Activity helps solve this by providing clear insights into job postings and recruiter engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short, the Recruiter Action score tells you how many applications the recruiter has taken an action on (such as viewed, downloaded, rejected, shortlisted etc) and gives you an idea if other candidates may have been contacted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can see the Recruiter Action score under your \u201cApplied Jobs\u201d section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only does this give candidates substantial information about the recruiter, it also helps put a face behind the posting. Moreover, candidates also have the option of connecting with recruiters via their social media accounts (all you need to do is click on the name of the recruiter and you\u2019ll be redirected to a detailed recruiter profile page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How It Helps You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how the Recruiter Activity feature can help you with smarter job application on Hirist<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea is to clear the apprehensions of those candidates who believe that no one is looking at their applications (and especially those who see Applied\/Sent against their application status). Thanks to our simple recruiter dashboard system, recruiters can get an immediate idea of the profile of all candidates who have applied for a particular position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Hirist_Recruiter-Dashboard\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From our experience, we\u2019ve seen that recruiters tend to skip profiles they don\u2019t find relevant (which means they do not take any action on your CV) and only take an action on those that they deem would be a suitable match to their requirements. So in cases where you see an \u201cApplied\/Sent\u201d status against your application and you notice that the recruiter has taken an action on \u201cX\u201d number of applications for the same posting, it\u2019s highly likely that he\/she did not find your profile a close\/suitable match for the role and decided against either viewing\/downloading\/short-listing your CV<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a lot of other cases, we\u2019ve noticed candidates applying to jobs which are months old and they then feel aggravated for not getting a response. Again, from our experience, we\u2019ve seen that what usually happens is that the recruiter takes an action on those resumes that he\/she received within the first few weeks and then in all probability, the position gets closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this case, they will hardly take the trouble to view (or even reject) your application months down the line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To sum up, always check the date of the job posting before applying. If you see your status as \u201cApplied\/Sent\u201d, do check the recruiter activity for that posting. Chances are the recruiter might not have taken an action on your application (for reasons mentioned above) but this does not mean other relevant candidates are not being contacted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
