Import your own candidates
Bring people from a Naukri or LinkedIn export, or your own sheet, onto your hiring board against a job.
You can add candidates you already have onto your hiring board. They stay private to your company: never added to the talent pool or shown to anyone else. It is free.
Before you start
- Post at least one job. Imported people are added to a job.
- Each person needs a name and an email or a 10-digit mobile number.
- Click Download the template if you are starting from scratch. Most Naukri and LinkedIn exports work as they are.
Steps
- Open Import candidates from the menu.
- In Add them to, choose the job.
- Choose your File (.xlsx or .csv, up to 2,000 people per file).
- Tick Email each new person an invitation to apply if you want them invited (live jobs, verified companies only).
- Click Import.
Read the report
Last import shows new people added, earlier imports added to this job, people already there, and rows skipped, with the reason for each row to look at.
Good to know
- Someone already in your list (by email or mobile) is not added twice. Uploading the same file again only adds who is new.
- If an import stops partway, upload the same file again to add the rest.
- Invitations go out over time, with a daily limit. Send now pushes the next batch.
- To invite imported people to another live job later, tick them in the list and choose Invite to apply.
