article body: How do I accept new applications and open the chat? What you'll achieve You can now accept or reject new applications with a single click. The chat only starts when you show genuine interest. What's new? The chat no longer opens automatically after an application. You decide first: Application moves to Accepted , your first chat message gets sent, the chat opens Application is rejected immediately, chat stays closed You decide later How the new decision process works 1. Review new applications Open the Screening tab in the Applications section. Select a new application to review it in detail. The chat isn't available yet. Your first chat message will only be sent after you've accepted the talent. 2. Make a decision On the right, you'll find three actions: Accept application The talent is a good fit and you want to get in touch Reject The talent isn't a good fit and you want to decline right away Next talent → You'll decide later. Application stays in screening 3. What happens next? ✅ Application accepted Application appears in the "In Progress" section under the Accepted column The chat is now available The talent has already received your first automated chat message ❌ Application rejected The application ends and moves to the Rejected column The talent will be notified that it didn't work out this time ➡️ Application skipped The application stays visible in the Screening tab You can decide on it during your next review Why this change matters You only chat with talents who are a real fit, because the chat only opens after you've reviewed them positively. You save time on unsuitable profiles because you can reject them without having to write a message. Talents find out where they stand faster. Frequently asked questions Does the chat open without my decision? No. The chat only opens when you actively click Accept . What does the talent see while I'm reviewing? The talent sees that their application is being reviewed. The chat remains locked. Does this apply to all…

article body: Why is my job automatically deactivated? Automatic job hiding makes sure that you only receive as many applications as you can actually handle , adjusted to match your response speed. This keeps your application process organized, candidates get feedback quickly, and you're guaranteed to deliver a consistently positive candidate experience. When does a job get automatically hidden? If too many applications remain unreviewed and your response times get too long, we'll automatically hide your job. You can check your average response time on the Dashboard. As soon as you start responding actively again, the job can be reactivated in your application overview. Before a job gets deactivated, you'll also receive a warning email so you can take action early on. 💡 Note : Your average response time is calculated across all your company's active jobs (last 30 days, weekdays only). If you respond quickly (under 3 days on average), auto hide won't kick in, even if you've got a lot of unreviewed applications piling up. When is an application considered "reviewed"? As long as an application stays in the "Application received" status (screening), it counts as unreviewed . An application is considered reviewed once its status changes to: Shortlist First interview Second interview Offer Hired Rejected 💬 A chat message alone isn't enough. Only a change to a different application status counts as "reviewed". 🔮 What changes with the new "Accept application" feature? Nothing, the logic stays the same. Even though applications will need to be "accepted" first going forward, an application only counts as reviewed once you change its status.

article body: Is there a candidate pool and how do I use it? At Instaffo, we don't have a traditional candidate pool. Instead, we rely on intelligent matching, and that's where the Smartpool comes in. What is the Smartpool? The Smartpool contains talents who have already applied to you once and whom you've actively added to the Smartpool when rejecting them. This means: You've decided that this talent could potentially be interesting for a future position or at a later point in time. Important: Talents only appear in the Smartpool if they match one of your currently open positions. 🧩 How do I add talents to the Smartpool? When you reject a talent for a specific position , but still find them potentially interesting, you can easily add them to the Smartpool. Here's how: 1. Click "Reject" in the application process 2. Enable the option "Add to Smartpool" 3. The talent will be saved and suggested again in the future if they match a new position ➡️ This feature is only available in the Professional package. Where do I find the Smartpool? You'll find the Smartpool in the Talent Feed under the "Smartpool" tab, which is marked with "PRO" . It displays only talents you've personally added who currently match one of your open positions. 🔍 So you won't see any random saved talents, just relevant suggestions. What can I do with talents in the Smartpool? When a talent appears in the Smartpool, you have two options: You can respond to the original application and continue the chat there Or you can use the "Suggest Position" button to send the talent a new matching position directly The talent can then decide whether they'd like to reconnect. 💬 💡Good to know The Smartpool is part of the Professional package You actively control which talents are saved Only talents with current matches are displayed You can always go back to old applications or make new suggestions anytime Got questions about how to use it or want to actively work with the Smartpool? Your Account Manager is happy to help!

article body: Are Talents Outside the Area Ready to Relocate? Want to know if a talent is willing to relocate for the job or work on site? Instaffo shows you this info clearly and reliably both in an application and in the Talent Feed . Got an application? Here's how you see work location preferences When applying, talents select which of the listed locations they'd like to work at. This info is always requested and comes directly from the talent. In the application's matching details, you'll find: Work location confirmed: The talent has selected your job's location as an accepted work location. You'll see either: Home address and distance to job location, or "Open to working at the job location" Work location not confirmed: The talent is not willing to work at any of the listed locations. You'll see: "Preferred work location doesn't match" Relocation readiness and Talent Feed In the Talent Feed, you can spot relocation readiness with two tags: "Open to relocating" Talent is generally open to moving "Location matches" Talent lives within acceptable distance or directly at the location Point right hand This info is based on details in the talent's profile and helps you out before first contact .

article body: How do I transfer applications to our ATS? Want to transfer an application from Instaffo to your ATS? In this article, you'll learn how to do it easily using the application overview. How synchronization works As soon as you move a talent from the "Screening/Application" phase to a more advanced phase like "Shortlist", the application automatically syncs with your ATS provided the job posting is already linked. Synchronization is controlled by the status change. This way, you stay in control of exactly when data gets transferred. 💡 Important: If you move a talent directly to the "Rejected" phase, no synchronization will be triggered. Job posting not linked yet? For sync to work, you'll need to connect the job posting to your ATS first. Here's a step by step guide: 👉 How do I link a job to our ATS? Check synchronization Want to make sure the sync worked? Click on the candidate card to open the detail view The Instaffo Assistant in the chat on the right will let you know whether the application was successfully transferred If not: Move the talent to the desired phase again, and the sync will be triggered once more Only available in the Professional plan ATS linking is included in the Instaffo Professional plan. Instead of constant copy and paste, you can transfer applications directly to your ATS with just one click. ⏱️ Recruiters lose an average of up to 14 hours per week on manual tasks. With ATS linking, you save time and can focus on conversations with talent. Interested in the Professional plan? Want to use ATS linking? Just reach out to your Account Manager. Together, you can check whether the Professional plan is right for you and how the transition works.

article body: Everything you need to know about Instaffo Chat with talents What do I do if a talent doesn't respond to my message? You've messaged a talent on Instaffo Chat but aren't getting a reply? No need to worry sometimes you just need the right nudge. Here's how you can move forward in a meaningful way. 🧩 Your action options 1. Was your message read? In the chat, you can see via the checkmarks whether the talent has seen your message: Two grey checkmarks → not yet read Two green checkmarks → read This gives you a good sense of how to proceed. 2. Follow up briefly Sometimes a message gets lost in the shuffle of daily life that's completely normal. Just send a quick and friendly follow up. Often a little reminder is all it takes to get the conversation rolling again. 😊 3. Use contact information outside of Instaffo If the talent has provided contact details like email, phone number, or LinkedIn, you can reach out to them directly. Especially for interesting profiles, the extra step is worth it! 🚀 👻 How to avoid ghosting from the start To keep talents from dropping off in the first place, here are a few simple tips: ⏱️ Respond quickly ideally the same day. Particularly successful teams respond within 3 days. 🙋 Address them personally reference their background and tell them why you find them interesting. 🔍 Be specific explain clearly and transparently what happens next. 💡 Tip: The more personal and clear you write, the more likely talents will stick around. And if it doesn't work out right away it's worth persisting! 💪 Can people see who's writing in the chat? Yes talents always see the name of the person from whose profile the message was sent. So the sender name matches exactly the account you're logged into. Can you send messages on behalf of someone else? No it's not possible to send messages from your account on behalf of someone else. So if, for example, a rejection should officially come from a colleague, they need to send it from their own Instaffo profile. 💡 Tip: To …

article body: What happens when a talent applies directly and through Instaffo? Some talents apply in parallel through multiple channels for example, directly on your careers page and also through Instaffo. Here's how we handle that. 👇 If the talent applied through Instaffo first In this case, the application is credited to Instaffo even if the talent applies directly with you again later. Exception: If the direct application comes more than 12 months after the Instaffo application, we don't charge a fee . If the talent applied directly with you first If the talent applied directly through your homepage or other platforms first, no fee is charged . 📌 Important: So we can assign this correctly, we need clear proof , for example: Email with timestamp Screenshot from your ATS or applicant tracking system ⚠️ Please reach out proactively to your account manager as soon as such a case comes up. We can only assign the application correctly with timely proof. 💡 Note Every case is unique and sometimes a bit tricky. If you're unsure or have questions, just talk to your account manager . We'll figure out together what's the best solution for you. 🙌

article body: Why Am I Getting Applications When My Job Post is Hidden? You've hidden a job post and applications are still coming in? Here's what's causing it and what you can do about it. What does "hide job post" mean? When you hide a job post , it will: no longer appear in matching no longer be suggested to talents as a new opportunity In other words: Talents won't see the job post in their overview anymore. But you can still actively reach out to suitable talents through the Talent Feed . 🎯 💡 Tip: Why not test how effective the Talent Feed works on its own without a public job listing? 👉 Publish Your Job Exclusively in the Talent Feed Now Why can some talents still see the job post? Simple: When you interact with talents in the Talent Feed, they can still see the job post, for example: when you invite them using "Suggest job" when you save them using "Save" Job Already Filled? Use the "Deactivate" function if you've already filled your position. Just keep in mind that you won't receive any new applications and you'll lose access to the Talent Feed. 📝 Important: Any applications you've already received will of course be preserved.

article body: How do I calculate the placement fee? For every successful placement through Instaffo, you'll pay a placement fee depending on your contract. This is based on the agreed gross annual salary in the first year of employment. You'll find the exact percentage in your individual contract. 📄 The fee applies to all placements where the interview process was started through Instaffo . What counts toward the gross annual salary? The calculation basis is the total gross annual salary that is, everything agreed upon in the first year: Fixed salary (annual gross) Variable compensation (e.g., bonuses, commissions) Employer contributions to occupational pension schemes (bAV) Monetary benefits (e.g., company cars) Other monetary additional benefits in the contract How are additional benefits factored in? All non fixed benefits also count toward the calculation here are a few examples: 🚗 Company car The monetary benefit is calculated using the 1% rule, lease rate, or an alternative method × 12 months 🏦 Occupational pension contribution The employer contribution to the pension scheme is fully included 💸 Bonuses & commissions These are considered if they're part of the agreed salary package Calculation example Talent's salary package: Fixed salary: 60,000 € Commission: 7,500 € annually Company car (1% rule, 40,000 € gross list price): 400 €/month × 12 = 4,800 € ➡️ Total gross annual salary: 60,000 € + 7,500 € + 4,800 € = 72,300 € ➡️ Placement fee (e.g., 15%): 72,300 € × 0.15 = 10,845 € plus VAT What applies when hiring freelancers? In this case, the placement fee is based on the agreed hourly rate and the planned duration of the engagement . Please reach out to your account manager early on. This way, all fee details can be coordinated together and documented transparently. 🤝 Questions about the calculation? Unsure whether a benefit is relevant in your case? No problem your account manager is happy to help and will clear things up for you.
