What's New

Customize Columns in List View

List View now includes a Manage Columns option, replacing the previous Sort icon.

You can now:

  • Reorder columns

  • Show or hide columns

  • Add additional fields from the full column library

  • Save personalized column layouts that update immediately

This makes it easier to tailor List View to your preferred workflow.


Delete and Merge Person Records

Administrators can now permanently delete person records directly from Thrive.

To delete a record:

  1. Open the person's profile.

  2. Select the More Actions menu.

  3. Click Delete Record.

  4. Confirm the deletion.

Note: Record deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.

Merging Duplicate Records

If you're working with duplicate people records, we recommend using the new Merge Profiles feature instead of deleting records.

When merging two profiles, Thrive combines:

  • Contact information

  • Notes

  • Outreach history

  • Documents

  • Events

into a single record while allowing you to choose which profile to keep.


Log Outreach While Rejecting Candidates

You can now log candidate outreach directly from the rejection workflow.

When rejecting a candidate:

  1. Enable the Log Outreach toggle.

  2. Select the outreach method.

  3. Add any notes.

  4. Save.

The candidate is moved to Rejected, and the outreach is automatically recorded on their profile in a single action.


Reusable Scorecard Criteria Library

Administrators can now build a centralized library of scorecard criteria that can be reused across the organization.

Navigate to:

Admin → Customization → Scorecard Criteria

From here, administrators can:

  • Create reusable scorecard criteria

  • Add descriptions

  • Define star rating guidance

  • Pin frequently used criteria

The criteria library is available when:

  • Building reusable scorecard templates in Admin

  • Creating scorecards within individual projects

This helps standardize candidate evaluations while reducing duplicate work.


More Flexible Project Stages

Project stages are now significantly more configurable.

Administrators can now:

  • Create unlimited custom stages

  • Rename default stages

  • Reorder stages

  • Mark stages as Active or Inactive

Additionally:

  • The previous Vetting and Interview stage categories have been removed.

  • Everything prior to the Offer stage is now fully configurable.

This allows organizations to better tailor recruiting workflows to their internal process.


Custom Event Types

Event Types can now be managed directly from the Admin portal.

Navigate to:

Admin → Customization → Event Types

Administrators can:

  • View system event types

  • Create custom event types

  • Make new event types immediately available throughout Thrive
