• Key Concepts: 
  Candidate status is a feature of the SAP ER E-Recruiting component that allows employers to track the progress of job applicants. It is used to indicate the current stage of the recruitment process for each applicant, such as “applied”, “interviewed”, “hired”, etc. This feature helps employers to keep track of their recruitment process and ensure that all applicants are treated fairly and equally.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the candidate status feature, employers must first create a job posting and then invite applicants to apply. Once an applicant has applied, employers can assign them a candidate status such as “applied” or “interviewed”. Employers can then update the candidate status as the recruitment process progresses. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to keep track of all applicants and their candidate statuses in order to ensure that all applicants are treated fairly and equally. Employers should also make sure to update the candidate status regularly so that they can easily identify which applicants are still in the recruitment process and which have been hired or rejected.
