Every applicant moves through five stages, from the moment they apply to the day you hire them. Applicant Stages is where you name those stages to match how your company hires. There are always exactly five stages: you can rename them, but not add or remove any. Open Settings → Applicant Stages. You’ll see your current stages, for example:

​
Rename your stages

  1. Click Edit at the top right.
  2. Type a new name for any stage. Every stage needs a name.
  3. Click Save.
The new names appear everywhere stages are shown: the Pipeline, the stage boxes on Applicants and Talent Pools, and the funnel in Reports.
Name each stage after what happens in it, such as Phone Screen or Technical Interview, rather than a number. Everyone on your team, and every report, becomes easier to read.
