Adding and Importing Candidates

Adding a candidate manually

Click Candidates in the sidebar, then click Add Candidate. Fill in the candidate's details:

  • First name and Last name (required)

Resume parsing

When you upload a resume, Crumblelead automatically extracts key information like skills, experience, and education. This data is stored alongside the candidate record and used for matching and search.

Each candidate has a status that tracks where they are in their overall journey:

  • Active - Available and looking for opportunities
  • Passive - Not actively looking but open to the right role
  • Placed - Successfully placed in a role
  • Hired - Hired through your agency
  • Blacklisted - Not eligible for future roles
