Anonymize Candidate Data

If it is required to remove the candidate's data (for example, upon the candidate request), but it is important to keep the candidate record for the statistics purposes, HR can anonymize the candidate data. Data anonymization includes the following:

• The candidate Full Name, First Name and Last Name will be replaced with Candidate_N.
• The following fields will be cleaned up: Email, Address, Address2, Phone and Secondary Phone.
• The candidate documents and job offers should be removed.

  The anonymization process is irreversible, meaning that the mentioned data will be deleted permanently.

To anonymize the candidate data, follow the steps below:

1. Open the card of the candidate whose data is to be anonymized (click Recruiting > Candidates and then click the candidate name).
2. On the Details tab, click Data Anonymization.
