Resumes that are attached from candidate applications will automatically be stored in the resume section of the candidate profile. You are also able to manually add and delete resumes.


Adding resumes

 

The maximum resume file size you can upload is 10MB.

To manually add a resume, open the candidate profile and click the + Add resume button to select a file from your computer. Lever’s resume parser will add information from the resume to the candidate summary including their candidate's name, organization, and contact details. For more details and troubleshooting support, refer to our help article on resume parsing.

Alternatively, you can drag a document into the 'Upload resume' area.

You can store multiple documents as resumes. This may be helpful if a candidate submitted an updated resume or if you wanted to add supplemental application documents, like a cover letter or portfolio. To add additional documents to a candidate's resume section, click the [+] icon in the 'Resume' section and click the + Add resume... option that appears.

Note that resumes are visible to all candidate followers and interviewers associated with the interview plan. If you wish to upload a document to be hidden from select candidate followers, use the + Add file section and update the file with the 'Make Secret' option. Learn more about this in our help article on the difference between resumes and files.

Deleting resumes

Navigate to the candidate profile and scroll down through their overview until you find the resume you wish to delete.

  • Click the ellipses [...] next to the resume you wish to delete
  • Click Delete, then Delete again in the 'Are you sure?' prompt

Deleting a resume is permanent and cannot be undone.

Difference between resumes and files

Lever considers 'resumes' as documents you would like to be visible to all interviewing parties. Resumes are accessible to all candidate followers and Interviewers who are included in a specific candidate's interview. This helps interviewers review any relevant information regarding the candidate's past experiences. You can store multiple documents as resumes which may be helpful for adding an updated resume or supplemental application documents like a cover letter or portfolio.

Lever consider 'files' as documents that may be hidden from select candidate followers. Users with Interviewer access may also view files only if a candidate profile does not include any attachments in the resume section. Files that are marked as 'secret' will only be visible to users with Admin or Super Admin level access, users with sensitive information privileges enabled for 'secret files', as well as the user who locked the file as 'secret'.

Resumes and files appear in the candidate's profile.
