⭕ What is Float Candidates and Why Use It?

Float Candidates in Vincere refers to the process of sending a LiveList™ to clients without an active job. This is known as a float LiveList™ or floated job.

  • This feature allows recruiters to showcase potential candidates to clients, even when there's no specific job opening, thus keeping the clients engaged and informed about available talent.

🤩 Benefits of Floating Candidates

  1. Proactive Talent Marketing: By floating candidates, recruiters can proactively market potential candidates to clients, keeping the clients' needs in mind even before a job opening arises.

  2. Client Engagement: This practice helps in maintaining a strong relationship with clients, showing them that the recruiter is actively thinking about their talent needs.

  3. Opportunity Creation: Floating candidates can lead to new job opportunities as clients may create positions to accommodate exceptional talent.

  4. Efficiency: This method streamlines the process of introducing candidates to clients, saving time for both parties.

⭕ How to Float Candidates in Vincere

Follow these steps to float candidates to clients:

  1. Navigate to the Candidates table view/ profile in Vincere.

    • Select the candidates you wish to float.

  2. Float Candidates in LiveList™ Format:

    • You can float candidates in the same format as a LiveList™ to multiple contacts.

🎯 Option to Not Send an Email:

You can choose not to send an email when floating a candidate. Simply mark the candidate as floated without sending a notification.

🎯 Email Privacy for Contacts:

The contact who receives the LiveList™ will only see their own email address, ensuring privacy.

🎯 Float to a Distribution List:

Users can float candidates to a distribution list via the LiveList™. This allows for efficient communication with multiple contacts at once.
