Recruitment process definition Edited

[Marcelo Naistat]

Hi !  I'm considering Jira Core for recruitment process. The example provided in the Business project basics suggest to use issues for each applicant. 

How do you suggest to store candidates resumes in a way that it's easily filterable, searchable? 

Thank you!!

Hello @Marcelo Naistat welcome to the community. When I have done it, it was one ticket per applicant and your workflow should reflect the different steps of your process. The thing with the CV is that if you attach it to Jira, you won't be able to search within its content. I suggest you have a couple of custom fields that help you identify the CVs you are looking for like location, position, seniority as a few examples

Thank you @Hernan Halabi _Elite IT Consulting Group_ !!

I intend to use it massively, this design will mean a project for each postition and will not give me visibilty of the relationship between candidates and processes. I also expect to have many different skills and technologies combined and a growing number of candidates an positions. Maybe I'll need some development on top of this idea and a ready made SAAS would be easyer. 

Thanks anyway!

Well I would need bigger visibility to better assist you, I thought it was a simple one but if there are many relations and things are as big as they sound I can't help you much without more detail.

Some advice, try to use Jira software rather than core, the agile boards will be more flexible and will be able to have different views of the same depending different criteria.

Happy to help further if needed
