How to archive recruitment and staffing projects

Move finished projects out of your active lists while keeping their history available to read, copy or reuse them.

Written by Tetiana

Archive a recruitment or staffing project when it's finished but you want to keep it for reference. An archived project is read-only: you can review its history and details, but you can't change it. You can also copy it or save it as a template for new projects.

Archive a project

Recruitment projects

In the recruitment list, click the Archived tab next to Active. For each archived recruitment, you can see the total number of applicants with a breakdown, and the assigned unit and team.

Staffing projects

In the Calendar → Schedules view, turn on the Archived filter. It's off by default and shows how many archived schedules there are. Archived schedules are read-only.

What you can do with an archived project

  • Preview the project to see how it looked.

  • Make a copy of this project to use as the starting point for a new one.

  • View analytics, where available.

  • Read the chat history with candidates and talents.

  • Review project details and history, including attributes.

You can't edit an archived project or send new messages from it. The chat input and editing controls are hidden.

What candidates and talents see

In the candidate and talent portals, the project shows the status Archived. They can't send new messages in it.
