How do I add candidates to the PSI system?

There are three ways to add candidates to the True Talent platform and each is described below:

  • At the time of “Assignment” of an assessment or workflow, either in bulk or individually
  • On the “Manage Candidates” page, individually
  • On the “Upload Candidates” page, in bulk.

At the Time of Assignment

  1. To add a candidate to the True Talent platform at the time of assignment, click “Assignment” under the “Assign” tab.  (Screen 1)
  2. Select the assessment or workflow to be assigned by clicking the plus sign (“+”) in the “Add” column.
  3. Click “Continue.”  (Screen 2)
  4. Next, create accounts for the people (candidates) who will take the assessment(s) by clicking “Create Candidate.”
    OPTION:  To upload candidates in bulk during assignment, click “Upload Candidates” instead of “Create Candidate.” See detailed instructions here.
  5. Fill out the required information, and click “Save.”  You have now created a candidate in the system. (Screen 3)
