Check for duplicate candidates within the Candidate database.
Written by Shruti Patel
When multiple recruiters use the same system, different users might sometimes enter the same candidate's information more than once. To find and merge these duplicate entries, the system checks for duplicates based on the candidate's Email ID, Mobile Number, or LinkedIn URL.
Check for duplicates
Step 1: Open the Candidates screen by clicking on the “Candidates” Module on the left-hand side of the menu.
Navigation Link: https://app.ismartrecruit.com/quickSearch
Step 2: Click on the candidate's name to open the Candidate View Dialogue box. By clicking on the three-dotted buttons at the top, choose the “Check for Duplicate” option.
If there is a duplicate, a duplicate candidate will be displayed on the list, and you can select the profiles from which you wish to merge.
If there is no duplicate candidate, you can see the “No Duplicate Candidate Found” message.
Note: The Duplicate check happens on three major parameters, the Email address, Mobile Number, and LinkedIn URL stored in the Candidate details.
