Provide way to identify applications with all reference checks complete and perform bulk actions

We thought of a few ways to facilitate this process, such as:

  1. Creating a reference check status filter that allows users to view only those applications with all reference checks in completed status. This could be a new quick/standard filter on the Applicant Progress Board, or the existing reference check status filter on the Manage Applications page could be updated.

  2. Adding a column/data point to the Applicant Progress Board and/or Manage Applications page that shows the number of completed reference checks out of total references provided.

  3. Implementing a feature to automatically move applications to a certain status once all reference check forms have been submitted.

Currently, the process of identifying applications with all reference checks complete is quite manual and becomes cumbersome for jobs with a large number of applications. Users must first run a report that shows the number of provided references and completed references for each application. They then return to the APB or Manage Applications and use the report to select the applications where the number of provided references equals the number of completed references. Once these applicants have been selected, users can bulk move them to the next stage.

What business value are you trying to achieve?

For many of our jobs, an application is not considered complete--and may not be reviewed--until all reference checks have been completed. That is, all references provided on an application must be in completed status. Users need an easy way to identify these applications so that they can bulk move them to the next stage of the recruitment process.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your idea.

    We are delighted to let you know that you can now do this in APB using the Track Reference Check Completions in the Applicant Progress Board | Deployed to Live 26 Sep 2024.

    • At least one completed

    • In progress or invited

    • Incomplete checks

    • Expired checks

    • Checks not performed. .

    Please update filter options to include "Reference checks completed" on the Applications search criteria page

    application status rules - decide how many completed references can trigger the status change - e.g. set it to two instead of three

    Glad you are working on this

    please make it more robust so you can bulk reference more than a few at a time

    Update recruitment process features so you can customise the referee message - at moment you can only link to the referee form
