How to filter jobs by stage (for recruiters, managers)

1. Go to Jobs from the top navigation menu.
2. At the top of the List of Jobs page, review the stage cards (e.g. Draft, Interviewing, Offer Stage).
3. Select a stage card to filter jobs that match that recruitment stage.
   Note:

• Only jobs you have permission to view will be included.
• The selected card turns orange and shows the number of matching jobs.
• The job list below updates instantly to show only jobs in that stage. 

Understand what each stage card means

Jobs can appear in more than one stage card.
For example, a job that is live and has candidates interviewing will show under both Advertised and Interviewing.

How to review and update which stage an application status belongs to

Recruitment stage filters on the Candidate Listing and Job List pages are powered by the "Recruitment Phase" setting assigned to each Application Status.

Update a status’s recruitment phase

FAQs

Why don’t I see any jobs under a stage card?

You’ll only see jobs that match that recruitment stage and that you have permission to view. Try checking other stages or confirming your job access with your recruiter.

Why is a job not appearing in the expected stage?

Each application status is linked to a recruitment phase. If no candidates are in a status assigned to that stage, the job won’t appear in that filter.

Who updates which statuses belong to each stage?

Superusers / Jobtrain Administrators manage this setting. They can assign recruitment phases to each application status in Settings > Application Statuses.

Can I filter by multiple stages at once?

No. The stage filter cards show one stage at a time. To view jobs in another stage, select a different card.

How do I remove a selected filter?
To de-select a stage filter, simply select the same filter card again. This will remove the filter and return you to your default List of Jobs view.

What does it mean when a stage card says “0”?

It means there are no jobs currently in that stage (based on your access and the current application statuses).

Why is the same job appearing in more than one stage?

If a job has applicants in multiple statuses across different stages (e.g. some in Shortlisting, some in Interview), it may appear in multiple filters depending on your system rules.

What is the default display when the List of Jobs page loads?

By default, the List of Jobs page shows jobs based on the default job statuses assigned to your Security Role.

Superusers / Jobtrain Admins can update these defaults in:
Settings > Security Roles > Job Statuses > Default

You can still use Search Jobs to find jobs that aren’t included in the default view.
