People & Bench

The People area at /company/people is where you manage everyone connected to your company — your candidate pipeline, contractors, internal team (bench), and guest applications. The /company/talent page is a network-wide search for discovering new talent.

Work the candidate pipeline​

Goal: move candidates through your hiring stages.

  1. Open /company/people and select the Pipeline view.
  2. Pick a Project (required) and optionally a Role. Scores fill in on demand when a role is selected ("Scoring candidates…").
  3. Drag candidate cards between stages. Each card shows the name, match score, role, a source badge (Applied / Sourced / Guest), and culture-fit percentage.
  4. Click a card to open the candidate drawer with a six-axis spider radar (skill, culture, cost, experience, availability, domain), notes, and — for engagement cards in terminal stages — a Reject option.

Manage contractors​

Goal: track active and prospective contractors.

  1. Select the Contractors view, then a status sub-tab: Active, Applicants, Shortlisted, Invited, Past, or Blocked.
  2. The table shows talent, role & type, top skills, rate, availability, and match. Use Invite (for shortlisted), Message (for active), or the ⋯ menu per row.
  3. Use Add from Marketplace to source more, or Export CSV to download the list.

Manage your internal team (bench)​

Goal: keep your bench data current and assign people to projects.

  1. Select the Internal Team view.
  2. The table shows each member's role & skills, availability, spider match, and editable Internal Cost ($/hr and hrs/wk — click Set rate… to fill it in).
  3. Click Assign to open the assignment modal, choose a project (and optionally a slot), and confirm — internal assignments are immediately active with no invite flow.
  4. Use Invite Team Member to add a new internal member.

Admin only

Managing internal team members — Invite Team Member, editing internal cost rates, and Export CSV — is a company_admin action.

Review a person's detail​

Open any person at /company/people/:id to see their full profile, skills, match signals, and the engagement history that connects them to your projects.

Guest applications​

The Guest Applications view lists people who applied through your public job site without a full account, so you can review and convert them into your pipeline.

Discover new talent​

Goal: search the federated network for elite contractors.

  1. Open /company/talent (Talent Network).
  2. Search by role, skills, or name; the active skill filter and result count are shown.
  3. Each card shows the person's headline, top skills, hourly rate, timezone, availability, and rating. Flagged people show a Proven Performer badge.
  4. Use the Mark / Proven toggle to flag standout talent (company-internal).

tip

"Proven Performer" flags are visible only to your company and help you quickly resurface trusted talent across future projects.
