This is where the magic happens. After setting up your job and approving the scoring criteria, the Candidate Dashboard becomes your mission control for evaluating every applicant. This guide will walk you through navigating the dashboard, understanding the AI evaluation, and taking action on candidates.

1. The Candidate Dashboard: Your Mission Control

When you click on a job from your main dashboard, you are taken to the Candidate Dashboard. This is your mission control for the role. All incoming candidates will automatically appear in the New Applicants tab. This view is designed to give you all the information you need at a glance, organized into three main panels.

• The Candidate List (Left Panel): Here you'll see a list of all applicants for the role, sorted by their AI score by default. Each entry shows the candidate's name, their AI match score (e.g., 100%, 89%), and their application date. You can also use the search bar to find a candidate by name or email.
• The Document Viewer (Centre Panel): When you select a candidate, their resume or CV will be displayed in this central panel. You can scroll through the document, zoom in/out, and download it if needed. You will also see quick links above the resume to research the candidate on platforms like LinkedIn, GitHub, or Google.
• The AI Evaluation Panel (Right Panel): This panel is your window into the AI's "thinking." It provides a detailed breakdown of the candidate's score based on the criteria you approved. For each criterion, you'll see:
  • The score awarded (e.g., 5/5).
  • A summary of the evidence found in the resume that justifies the score.

2. Researching and Verifying Candidates

Beyond what's written on a resume, it's often necessary to verify a candidate's identity and learn more about their professional background. A·Minds includes a built-in Quick Research Bar to make this process fast and efficient.

This tool is especially useful for the initial vetting of candidates to ensure they are real people and to quickly access their professional profiles.

The Quick Research Bar

Directly below the candidate's name and current role, you will find a "Links" section. These are not links from the candidate's resume; they are dynamically generated search links to help you research the candidate across the web.
