Editing Applicant Statuses
Use
In accordance with the two types of selection procedure, there are also two applicant statuses, the
overall status
and the
vacancy assignment status
. These two statuses are normally maintained in different ways.
Integration
In some cases the overall status can affect the vacancy assignment status. For example, if an applicant has the overall status
rejected,
then each vacancy assignment status must also be
rejected
. In other words, if you reject an applicant in the overall procedure, he or she can no longer be included in the selection procedure for a specific vacancy.
