Welcome to CLARA!

Whether you're a seasoned recruiter or a new user, our platform offers powerful tools to streamline the candidate screening process. Follow these steps to add efficiency to your evaluation process and help you collaborate seamlessly with your team.

Step 1: Log In

Begin by logging in to CLARA with your Recruiter or Partner Admin credentials.

Step 2: Navigate to the Job Details Page

Once logged in, find candidates for the specific job you're managing by choosing the Job from the "Jobs" menu and clicking into it. In this case, we have chosen the "SQA" job.

You'll notice that (on the left) CLARA has already pre-sorted candidates into Not Qualified or Pre-Qualified categories based on their CLARA scores. These scores reflect the specific requirements set for the role. These requirements can be adjusted by the admin on the organizational or job level at any time.

Step 3: Access Candidate Application Profiles

Click into a candidate card to open the Candidate Application Profile. In this case, we have chosen the candidate "M.L."

Here, you'll find a wealth of information including the CLARA Score and details, Requirements Match, a Candidate summary, detailed education and experience information, skills information, assessment answers, and a comments section for internal communication.

Step 4: Drag and Drop Candidates

As you review candidates, you can manage them in the CLARA platform by dragging and dropping their candidate cards between columns/categories. This streamlines your work by allowing you to quickly organize and prioritize candidates for further consideration or next steps.

Step 5: Share Qualified Candidates with the Hiring Manager

Once you've identified a list of qualified candidates, click on "Share with Hiring Manager" from the dropdown menu in the candidate cards.

This action will open a popup window enabling you to include a personalized message for the Hiring Manager or to provide additional information that may assist in their decision-making process. When you click the "Share with Hiring Manager" in the popup window, your message will be delivered and the Hiring Manager will be notified.

Step 6 (Optional):

You can share all Qualified candidates by selecting the checkbox next to Qualified, then the navigation icon, and selecting Share with Hiring Manager.

If a hiring manager has not yet been assigned, you can do so in the upper right-hand corner of your screen.

Step 7: Review the Hiring Manager's Decision

Once you've sharing the qualified candidates with the Hiring Manager, they will have an opportunity to make comments or to advance their selections. When they have completed this task, you will receive a notification that will appear in the "Notifications" section on your homepage screen.

The next time you visit the Job page, you will see that the candidates they have chosen to advance will appear at the top of the page.

Congratulations! You've successfully navigated the candidate screening process using CLARA.

Happy recruiting!
