What does Matched mean?
Those who show up as Matched are either:
- A candidate who was reached out to in Source who has hit 'Reply' to accept your interest
- An applicant that a Recruiter clicked 'Accept' for when reviewing their application
Essentially if a candidate is matched, there is confirmed mutual interest. We will send an email to both the recruiter and the candidate. Either party can reply to ask questions or set up a chat to continue the screening process.
Where can I find Matches?
You can find your matches in two areas, within Track or Conversations.
Track
Within Track, our built-in ATS, you have a column called Matched. This area includes a list of candidates/applicants.
If helpful, please see this guide for a broad overview of how to use Track: How do I use Wellfound's built-in ATS Track
To navigate to this area:
1. Sign in to an account connected to your company profile.
2. In recruiter mode, click on Track from the top toolbar.
3. Then investigate the Matched column to view candidates/applicants with mutual interest.
Conversations
Conversations is an area of recruiter mode where you manage messages with applicants/candidates. We include a filter here to look at only matched messages to simplify the process of understanding which candidates/applicants have expressed mutual interest.
To navigate to this area:
1. Sign in to an account connected to your company profile.
2. In recruiter mode, click on Conversations from the top toolbar.
3. From the left-hand column, select the heading Matched to view messages from only Matched candidates/applicants.
4. From the Filtering by drop-down, you can filter by 'My conversations' or by 'All conversations'
