Manage candidates in the dashboard

Review, filter, and take action on candidates who have completed your Truffle interview.

Updated over a month ago

The job dashboard shows all candidates who have applied to your role. You can view candidates by status, filter by match percentage or application date, and take quick actions without opening individual profiles.

This article explains how to navigate your candidate list, use filters to prioritize reviews, and manage candidate statuses efficiently.

Navigate the job dashboard

From your job dashboard, you'll see tabs that organize candidates by their current status.

Candidate status tabs

  • For Review: Candidates who have completed their application and are waiting for your first review

  • Reviewed: Candidates you or your team have already evaluated

  • In Progress: Candidates who started but haven't completed their application

  • All Candidates: Complete list of everyone who has applied

Click any tab to view candidates in that status. Each tab shows the number of candidates in that category.

Candidate table columns

The table displays key information about each candidate:

  • Candidate: Name and email address

  • Status: Current review stage (For Review, Advance, On Hold, or Rejected)

  • Match: AI-generated match percentage based on your job criteria

  • Team Rating: Star ratings from your team members (if any have been added)

  • Date: When the candidate applied and completed their interview


Use the candidate table

Sort and prioritize candidates

Click any column header to sort the table by that field. Common approaches include:

  • Sort by Match to start with the highest-scoring candidates

  • Sort by Date to review the most recent applicants first

  • Sort by Team Rating to see which candidates your team rated highest

Review candidates quickly

You don't need to open every profile to make initial decisions. Use the match percentage, team ratings, and status to identify promising candidates at a glance.

Click any candidate's name to open their full profile and review detailed responses, AI insights, and video highlights.

Note: On a free trial, you can only view your first 5 completed applications. Additional candidates will be blurred until you subscribe to a paid plan.


Filter candidates

When you have more than 10 completed candidates, filters appear above the table to help you narrow your view.

Available filters

Status filter

Segment candidates by their current review stage:

  • All statuses: Show everyone

  • Advance: Candidates you've moved forward

  • Hold: Candidates flagged for later review

  • Rejected: Candidates who aren't a fit

  • For Review: Candidates waiting for initial review

Match filter

Filter by AI match analysis:

  • All Match: Show all candidates

  • 90% +: Highest-scoring candidates only

  • 80% +: Strong matches

  • 70% +: Moderate matches

  • 60% +: Lower matches

This helps you focus on candidates who align best with your role requirements, especially in high-volume hiring.

Date Applied filter

Sort by application date:

  • All Time: Show all candidates

  • Today: Candidates who applied today

  • This Week: Candidates who applied in the last 7 days

  • This Month: Candidates who applied this month

Use this to batch review recent applicants or prioritize older submissions that need attention.

Combine filters

You can use multiple filters together to create custom views. For example, filter for 90%+ match candidates who applied this week and are still marked For Review.

Tip: Filters help you manage large candidate pools more efficiently and ensure you don't overlook qualified applicants.
