Application statuses

Tired of printing reams of application forms and collating all manner of handwritten notes? Our application status labels could be the answer! Once the applications come in, it’s really easy to collaborate with others in the hiring team to make decisions on who to shortlist using the labels. You can even qualify your choice by adding comments to each application. Everybody in the hiring team will be able to see them, which keeps the process transparent and efficient.
