Feature Enhancements
1. LinkedIn Chrome Extension
Significant extension updates to account for breaking changes made to LinkedIn’s UI for various users
Fixed the issue where URLs with additional information after the user name or country code at the beginning were not being recognized by the extension and displaying a “Not on LinkedIn” error. The scraper is now able to recognize the core URL even if there is more appended.
2. Notes Redesign & Improvements
A new notes slide out panel allows you to view and interact with the entire contents of the side panel while adding or editing a note. Browse a candidates existing notes, experience, or scorecards as you craft a new note. This new slide out applies everywhere notes can be created, including from the project and company side panels.
Share notes easily with a new split button. By default, notes will be shared with others in your organization. Click the chevron to open a sharing modal that allows you to update permissions for internal (within your organization) and external (hiring manager) users.
New visual indicators make it easy to differentiate between the various types of notes and who they are shared with. Icons to the left of the subject show the type of note: thumbs up/down, hiring manager, or rejection. Icons to the right of the subject show the sharing status of each note: globe for everyone (including Hiring Managers), people outline for internal, and lock for unpublished drafts.Hiring Manager notes have an additional tag to ensure they stand out.
Quickly filter for note created by hiring managers by turning on the “Client users only” toggle. Additionally filter by “Note Privacy” NOTE: Filtering by note type is coming soon!
3. Scorecard Redesign
The new notes slide out, sharing split button, and sharing icons detailed above have also been applied to scorecards. View a candidate’s profile while filling out a scorecard.
The default share for scorecards is set to everyone so internal and client users will be able to see scorecards unless you update the sharing settings.
4. Email Notifications of Hiring Manager Actions
Be notified by email whenever a hiring manager submits a scorecards, creates a note, or votes thumbs up or down on somebody. You’ll be able to see the content of the scorecard/note from the email itself, with a quick link to open the app.
5. Employee Notes on Company Profiles
View notes of current employees from the company profile and use additional filter to narrow down to specific candidates or projects. Toggle on “Company Notes” to view notes that are not associated with employees. NOTE: Former employee notes will be added in a follow-up sprint.
6. Project Filter - Assessment Status
Filter for candidates by “Assessment Status”, “Scorecard Date” range, and “Assessed By” from the context of a project so you can more easily narrow in on who’s been assessed.
7. Associations >> Projects & Lists
The “Associations” tab on a person profile is now “Projects & Lists” and it’s displayed more prominently as the third tab so you don’t need to search for it in the “Other” dropdown anymore!
The "Events" tab is now under the "Other" dropdown
View the highest stage reached by a candidate, even if it is not their current stage. Rejection is considered the lowest stage so you will be able to see what stage they got to prior to being rejected.
Move stages right from the Projects table by clicking the icon on the right. This opens the move stage modal and lets you change the status of candidates without needing to go into each project. NOTE: Candidate cannot be rejected at the moment. This will be added in an upcoming sprint.
Bug Fixes
1. Invite Hiring Manager
Invite hiring managers who already exist in the system with a different primary email address or name.
2. Project Dropdowns
Updates to ensure better search results on project dropdown fields. You can now search by title + company or company + title and get back more accurate results with less scrolling to find the project you are looking for. (NOTE: More enhancements will be made in an upcoming sprint to improve results even more)
3. Compensation
Fixed the issue causing the compensation tab not to load for some people records. Adding functionality to prevent users from deleting experience records tied to compensation - the compensation record must be deleted first.
4. Candidate CSV
Optimizations to be able to download the candidate CSV for large projects. (NOTE: Projects with more than 600 candidate may still experience issues or slowness. We are working to resolve this in an upcoming sprint)
5. Project Index Title Filter
Updated the title filter and title searching on the project index page in order to return more accurate results.
6. Active In Project
Fixed the issue where the “Active in Project” icon was missing from some profiles to ensure it is displayed accurately from the side panel and cards.
7. Experience Record Sorting
Experience records are now displayed in the correct order, with present experiences listed at the top and experiences at the same company grouped together in order from newest to oldest.
8. Candidate Report
Fixed the issue displaying multiple scorecards in a report for some users. Only scorecards with “Everyone” visibility will be added to the candidate report.
Resolved the issue where query language pulled in via the extension by mistake was still appearing in reports despite being deleted from the candidate’s profile
9. Project Report Sorting
Candidates will now be displayed in the project report in the same order they are rank sorted by. Even if you are viewing a different sort selection when generating the report, it will maintain the default “rank” sort order.
10. Location Searching
You can now do negative location searching from the person index page (e.g. CEOs not in California”
