- Each candidate is represented by a card that includes their name, the date their application was last updated, the range of time they will be available in Candidate Inventory, and the job title for which they qualified.
Managers may sort candidate cards in ascending or descending order by their last name or the date their application was last updated.

Candidate Details and Documents
- Added the ability to review Candidate Details and Documents. By clicking on a candidate card, HM users can view the details of the candidate’s application, including the documents that are Hiring Manager-viewable, a link to the job announcement, the city and state they’re located in, the date their application was last updated, and the date range they are available for review in Candidate Inventory.
Hiring Managers may view and download documents associated with the candidate for the selected job. HR can configure which documents are viewable by Managers within each application. The detailed view is specific to each vacancy for which the applicant is available. If an applicant is available for more than one position, changing the Application For drop- down menu will refresh the details and documents with the newly selected job.
