A lightweight candidate handoff sheet; it does not replace an ATS, background-check process, or hiring decision.

What's included

  • Candidate and position fields
  • Source and application date
  • Stage and interviewer ownership
  • A visible next step and status

How to use it

  1. 1Keep one row per candidate and use a short, shared stage vocabulary.
  2. 2Write the next step as an action with an owner rather than a vague reminder.
  3. 3Remove or restrict access to candidate data according to your own hiring practices.
