Job Workflows
New Formatted CV Merge Field: Education
Available on: Basic, Professional and Enterprise
We’ve added Education as a new merge field for Formatted CV templates. This gives you more control over how a candidate’s education history appears in generated CVs.
What the Education merge field does:
-
Combines all of a candidate’s education history into one clear section.
-
Groups each education entry together, including details such as qualification, institution, course, dates and notes.
-
Displays multiple education entries as separate items, with spacing to keep the layout easy to read.
-
Automatically leaves out any missing details, so CVs stay clean and professional.
How to use it:
-
Add the Education field using Insert Merge Field when editing a Formatted CV template.
-
The field is automatically populated when you use Create Formatted CV from a candidate’s original CV.
-
If a candidate has no education details on their record, the section will simply be left blank.
Temp Workflow Improvements
Available on: Basic, Professional and Enterprise
We’ve made several improvements to the Temp Workflow to make scheduling faster and more intuitive.
Recurring Shift Assignment – Smarter Default
When assigning a candidate to a recurring shift, the assignment window now defaults to “This and all future occurrences.”
What this means for you:
- Reduces the risk of accidentally assigning a candidate to just one shift.
- Speeds up bulk shift planning.
- Makes recurring bookings more efficient.
Improved Open Behaviour (Calendar & List Views)
We’ve improved how items open from both the Calendar and List views.
What’s changed:
- A more consistent experience when opening items in the side panel or in a new tab.
- Reduced confusion when switching between different workflow views.
This creates a smoother and more predictable workflow when managing shifts.
Clearer Leaver & Non-Compliant Indicators
We’ve updated the status icons used in the Temp Workflow.
What’s improved:
- Leaver and Non-Compliant indicators are now clearer and easier to identify.
- Tidier icon display for better visibility at a glance.
This helps you quickly understand candidate status without needing to open each record.
