Talent Pools | CONFIRM Docs

Talent pools are named collections of candidates that cut across jobs. Use them to keep track of people worth coming back to — silver-medal finalists, candidates for a role you’ll open next quarter, or anyone you don’t want to lose track of when their current application closes.

Find them under Talent Pools in the sidebar. Each pool shows its name, description, color accent, and how many candidates it contains.

Creating a pool

Click New Pool

On the Talent Pools page, click New Pool.

Name and describe it

Give the pool a name (names must be unique) and an optional description of what kind of candidates belong in it.

Pick a color

Choose one of 10 colors. The color appears on the pool’s card and on candidate badges, making pools easy to tell apart at a glance.

Create

Click Create Pool. The pool appears immediately and is ready to receive candidates.

Adding candidates to a pool

There are two ways:

From the candidate list (bulk) — select one or more candidates, then click Add to Pool in the bulk actions toolbar.
From a candidate’s profile — open the candidate profile and click Add to Pool in the action bar.

A candidate can belong to any number of pools. Pools they belong to appear as colored badges in the header of their profile.

Adding a candidate to a pool doesn’t change their pipeline stage or affect their application — it’s purely an organizational layer on top.

Viewing a pool’s members

Click a pool to see its members. This opens the Candidates page filtered to that pool, so all the usual tools — search, filters, sorting, bulk actions, and profiles — work on the pool’s members. From there you can message everyone in the pool or attach them to a new job when the right role opens.

Editing and deleting pools

Each pool card has a menu:

Edit — change the pool’s name, description, or color.
Delete — remove the pool. This deletes only the pool itself; the candidates in it are untouched and keep their applications and history.
