Is your team hiring? Notion can help!

Collect resumes, jot down impressions of candidates, keep track of status changes, and discuss potential hires - manage the entire hiring process from first contact to hire.

Start with this template when you create a new page or keep scrolling to learn how it works.

Step 1: Create a database to get started

First thing's first - let's create a database that can house all of the candidates. You can add one in by clicking the [+] button on a new line in the editor and selecting 'Board.'

If you have an existing spreadsheet that's been keeping track of potential hires, you can import that in with a .csv file by clicking on the '...' button above the table and selecting 'Import CSV.'

Step 2: Tailor the Kanban board to reflect the recruiting process

Let's highlight the different stages of the recruiting pipeline.

Just click the status and rename it - it's as easy as that. For some styling, you can also change the color of the milestones as well.

If you're uncertain where certain candidates are at the moment, you can keep the 'No Status' column. Otherwise, you can hide it by clicking on the '...' button.

Step 3: Add candidates to each stage

Now let's see that pipeline start to take shape by adding in candidates underneath each of the stages.

When a candidate moves through the hiring process, just drag-and-drop their card to the appropriate stage.
