CANDIDATE HIRING
THE PROBLEM
Information lives in spreadsheets, inboxes, and scattered documents. Reviews and approvals disappear in messages, and no one has a clear view of each candidate’s stage. That’s how decisions slow down, follow-ups get missed, and strong candidates drop out.
THE SOLUTION
Every candidate's context is in one place
Notes, feedback, resumes, and files sit with the candidate record. No digging through emails or threads.
Always know who owns the next step
Each step has a clear owner, so recruiters and hiring managers never wonder what's next.
Keep reviews and approvals moving
Approvals happen at defined checkpoints with clear steps, owners, and due dates.
HIRING TEMPLATE

FAQs
Is HiWork an Applicant Tracking System (ATS)?
No. HiWork is a workflow platform, not an Applicant Tracking System (ATS). It's built for teams that have outgrown spreadsheets and email but aren't ready for enterprise hiring software. HiWork gives you structured steps, approvals, and visibility without the complexity of a full ATS.
Can I customize stages for different roles?
Yes. Create different workflows for each role, such as engineering, sales, operations. Each workflow can have its own stages, required information, reviewers, and approval steps.
Can interviewers submit feedback in the system?
Yes. Interviewers can add comments or submit information through custom fields you configure. Internal steps stay visible only to your team, not to candidates.
How do approvals work?
Each step can include approval logic. Reviewers can approve, decline, or request changes. Decisions route candidates forward, backward, or down alternate paths, with a full record of what happened and why.
Is HiWork only for hiring?
Hiring is just one example of workflows. Companies use HiWork to manage any process that involves moving people or information through steps, collecting documents, and getting approvals.
