You can update the stages of a candidate from the profile as well as the chrome extension. You can also turn on board view and drag/drop candidates to the right stage.

Moving candidates through the pipeline — screenshot 1 You can change the color, name as well as mark a stage as a rejection or interview stage. You can also drag the ordering of the stages. * Marking a stage as a rejection stage will allow you to capture specific rejection reasons. * Marketing a stage as an interview stage will allow it to show up on the home screen to track upcoming interviews. You can also create a new stage template (aka new sets of candidate stages). This is helpful if a client has a different set of interview stages and you want to track exactly where candidates are for that client / job.
