Status and stage are two of the three filters the sidebar opens with, so they're the quickest way to narrow a job's candidates. Filter by Candidate status to focus on where candidates stand, and by In stage to focus on a step of the pipeline. Available to anyone who can view the job.
Before you start
Available to: anyone who can view the job (Admins, Recruiters, and Hiring Managers)
Where to find it: open a job's pipeline → Filters tab → Candidate status / In stage
Filter by candidate status
Under Candidate status, tick any of:
Qualified — active candidates still in the running
Disqualified — candidates removed from the pipeline
New — candidates you haven't opened yet
Overdue — candidates past their stage SLA
Each option shows a live count. Selecting more than one shows candidates matching any of them.
Filter by stage
Under In stage, choose one or more stages from this job's pipeline (for example Applied, Phone Interview, Offer). The table narrows to candidates currently in those stages.
💡 Both dimensions support an is not reading — for example, everyone not in the Applied stage.
Frequently asked questions
What does "Overdue" mean?
Overdue candidates have been in their current stage longer than that stage's SLA. It's a quick way to surface people who need attention.
How do I see only disqualified candidates?
Set Candidate status = Disqualified. You can then add the Disqualify reason filter to narrow by why they left — see How to Filter Candidates by Disqualification Reason.
