If jobseekers have previously submitted a job application through our service and try creating a profile, some of their details will now be imported into their profile.
This will allow job seekers to:
- save time having to re-enter information
- create a profile faster
- apply to jobs more quickly
Hiring staff could then browse profiles and invite jobseekers to apply for jobs.
