Standard Candidate Attributes are relevant data values that can be found about a candidate on their Candidate Profile. Custom Candidate Attributes can also be created that are unique to a client’s account/company but that are relevant pieces of information that they want to store about the candidate.

When navigating to the System Attributes page, the Standard Candidate Attributes list will open by default. This page will be organized into the following categories:

Custom Candidate Attributes

Custom Candidate Attributes are attributes created for a specific client’s needs. These attributes can be used to gather relevant information that is valuable beyond our Standard Attributes. Learn how to create custom attributes here.

Tie attributes to features / products

Selecting System Attribute in any of the below CEM Mapping use cases will collect the candidate’s attribute value at that point of the candidate engagement and enter that value wherever the attribute is stored in the system. You can tie Candidate Attributes to the following features or products:

Map attributes to Screening Questions in Apply Conversations.
Field Mapping at the question-level in Forms.
Response Mapping in Integration Center builds.

When System Attributes are stored for candidates on an account, we can capitalize on the data stored to take more complex actions on the candidate in their recruiting lifecycle, such as via Workflows.

Attributes on the Candidate’s Profile

Users can track what attribute values are stored for a candidate via the Attributes option on a candidate’s profile.

To access the Attributes UI,

Click the …More button next to the candidate’s current Candidate Journey status.
Select Attributes from its drop-down menu.
The Candidate Attributes slide-out drawer will open where you can view all the attributes available on the account and any values that are stored for that candidate’s attributes.

Download Candidate Attributes

You can download either Standard or Custom Attributes by clicking the download icon in the top right corner of the Candidate Attributes slide-out drawer. Both the Standard and Custom Candidate Attributes will then be downloaded into an CSV file.
