# From application to interview

> The inbound half of the product: careers page, the Applied stage, screening, and the calendar.

Sourcing finds the candidates who weren't looking. This journey handles the ones who come to you.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Publish the role — from the job's Portal tab">
    Every job carries a [public careers page and apply link](/en/portal/public-links). Send the link with outreach, hand it to the client, or paste the embed snippet into their website.

    <Frame caption="The candidate-facing careers page with application form">

  </Step>

  <Step title="Applications land in the pipeline — no inbox triage">
    Applicants appear on the job's **Applied** stage with their form details and documents attached. The counters on the jobs board tell you when something new arrived.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Screen against the same bar — in the Pipeline">
    Move genuine contenders to **Screening** and work them exactly like sourced candidates: same record, same notes, same stages. Weak applications go to **Rejected** — keeping the pipeline honest keeps the [reports](/en/workspace/reports) honest.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Book the interview — in the Calendar">
    With [Google or Microsoft sync](/en/workspace/calendar-tasks-notes) connected, interviews live next to everything else, and the interview lands on the candidate record's activity trail.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Merge the streams">
    From **Interview** onward, applicants and sourced candidates are indistinguishable: one pipeline, one portal presentation, one placement. That's deliberate — the client never needs to know which channel found the winner.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Applications carry intent that sourced candidates don't. When the same profile quality shows up in both streams, the applicant usually closes faster.
