Troubleshooting: Source Types
Source Type for Pre-Identified Candidate Shows as Supplier Instead of Directed
After following the steps to create a job with a pre-identified candidate and completing onboarding, the work order displays Source Type as Supplier Sourced instead of Directed.
When a vendor uses the general Apply button to submit a pre-identified candidate to a job, the system automatically sets the candidate's status to Applied. The system interprets it as a direct application from the vendor's talent pool, defaulting the Source Type to Supplier Sourced.
To ensure the
Source Type
is correctly set to Directed
for Pre-Identified
candidates, the vendor must:- Use theApply Candidatesoption.
- Within theApply Candidatesworkflow, selectPre-Identifiedwhen applying for the job.If the vendor selects a general Apply option without first opening the job and chooses the Pre-Identified path, the Source Type will be set to Supplier Sourced
