How Can I Review Candidates?
If a colleague has asked you to review a candidate, you will receive an email notification inviting you to provide feedback on that candidate. The review process is completed directly from the candidate's profile in Trakstar Hire.
Reviewing a Candidate
When a colleague sends a candidate for review, you will receive an email notification containing information about:
- Who requested the review
- The candidate's name
- The opening the candidate applied for
- The candidate's current hiring stage
To begin your review:
- Open the email notification.
- Click View Candidate Profile.
- On the candidate's profile, select the option to write your review.

Submitting Feedback
From the review screen, you can:
- Enter your comments and observations about the candidate.
- Provide an overall recommendation by selecting:
- Thumbs Up
- Neutral
- Thumbs Down

Your feedback should be honest and detailed to help the hiring team make informed decisions. Candidate review feedback is only visible to your colleagues within Trakstar Hire and is not visible to the candidate.
Editing a Review
If you need to update feedback after it has been submitted:
- Open the candidate's profile.
- Navigate to the Feedback tab.
- Locate your review.
- Click Edit to make changes.

Viewing Pending Reviews
You can view candidates who are still awaiting your review in two ways:
From a Candidate Profile
- Open a candidate profile from one of your review notification emails.
- Use the option at the top of the profile to view all candidates currently pending your review.
From Your Dashboard
If you have access to the full Trakstar Hire application:
- Open your Dashboard.
- Navigate to Tasks > Reviews.
- Review the list of candidates awaiting your feedback.
