Your Workflow, Your Stages
Build a pipeline that matches how your team actually hires. No forced workflows, no rigid templates.
Create, rename, reorder, and delete pipeline stages to match your exact hiring workflow. A three-person startup might use Applied, Interview, Offer. A scaling team might need Applied, Phone Screen, Technical Assessment, Team Interview, Reference Check, Offer, Onboarding.
Each job can have its own unique pipeline configuration. An engineering hire can have a coding challenge stage that a marketing hire does not. Reorder stages at any time, existing candidates stay in their current stage while the pipeline reshapes around them.
Pipeline visualization shows candidate counts per stage at a glance, so you always know where your talent pool stands without clicking into individual stages.
Pipeline Health at a Glance
- Health Indicators — Each stage displays a green, amber, or red health indicator based on average days candidates spend there. Green means candidates are moving through at a healthy pace. Amber signals a slowdown. Red flags a bottleneck that needs immediate attention from your hiring team.
- Conversion Rates — CurriculoATS calculates conversion rates between consecutive pipeline stages automatically. If 100 candidates enter Screening and 30 move to Interview, the conversion rate is 30%. Track where candidates drop off and identify stages that need process improvements.
- Time-to-Hire Metrics — Track average time-to-hire per job and average time spent per stage. These metrics surface over time, helping you set realistic expectations for hiring managers and identify process bottlenecks before they impact candidate experience.
Move Candidates with One Gesture
- Visual Candidate Movement — Drag-and-drop any candidate card from one stage to another. The pipeline updates in real time. Stage movements are logged in the activity timeline with timestamps, so you always have a complete audit trail of every candidate's journey through your hiring process.
- Automation Triggers — Stage movements can trigger automations automatically. When a candidate moves from Phone Screen to Technical Assessment, an email with preparation instructions can be sent without manual intervention. Stage-based automations eliminate repetitive tasks from your hiring workflow.
