1. What is the candidate pipeline in Skillate, and where do I view it?
   Candidate Pipeline in Skillate provides recruiters with a better understanding of the status of the candidate(s) for the respective job. It is a vertical panel on the job’s About page. It summarizes the number of candidates on each milestone and the split of the total number of applications received, duplicates, and unique applications from them.

2. What are the methods by which an employee can refer a candidate? 
   An employee can refer a candidate for a job or without mentioning a job from the employee portal. Skillate will add the resume to the talent pool in the latter case.
   
   

3. Why can’t I find the job in the referral drop-down list?
   You can navigate to the respective job’s details > Source Candidates > Referral and check if the referral is toggled ON.
   
   

4. Can I refer a candidate without a job and later assign them to a job?
   When you refer a candidate without a job, Skillate will add them to your organization's talent pool. The candidate can be assigned to a job later.
   
   
5. How does Skillate AI label the referred candidate?
   

1. Duplicate check: Any referral made, if it already exists on the database, will have a tag Duplicate against the respective candidate name.
2. Application Status: The referrer can log in to the employee portal to view the referral status.
3. AI disqualification: Any referral which doesn't cut the threshold matching score will be visible to the referrer as disqualified. This can avoid confusion about the candidate's eligibility for the job and follow-ups on the candidate's status.
   

6. Why should I use Resume Mailbox?
   Suppose you have a resume in your mailbox. Instead of downloading and uploading it to Skillate, you can forward it to the job-specific resume mailbox address.
   Skillate will automatically credit the source to the email address from which it is forwarded. Learn more about Resume Mailbox in Skillate.
