Uploading candidates

This article will show you how to upload candidates directly into idibu. You'll be able add candidates individually, or add multiple candidates all in one go. 

Uploading a candidate to a vacancy

1. Open the vacancy and click 'Recruiting options'.

2. Click on 'Add candidates manually'.

3. A blank candidate record will open. Click 'auto create profile from CV', and then select the desired CV from your computer.

4. idibu will then parse the CV data into the record. This may take a few moments, but once the data has populated into the record, click 'save profile'.

Uploading single or multiple CVs from email

Inside idibu we have a tool called CV drop. This allows you to forward CVs directly from your email into your idibu account. When the CVs land in idibu, they are parsed in exactly the same way as above.

Each user has their own unique CV drop address which will only accept CVs submitted from the email address in their user profile.

To find your CV drop address, go to 'Account settings' and click 'Your profile and maildrop info'.

Scroll to the bottom of the screen and you will see your unique CV drop address listed there. You can add it to your email address book or simply copy and paste it into an email.

You can now create an email with your CV drop address in the 'to' field, and add multiple CVs in one go. You have no restriction other than the amount of data your email provider will allow you to send in one mail.

If a candidate has sent you their CV on email, you can also forward that to the CV drop address to create their record.
