When someone exists in Recruiterflow as a candidate but you also need them as a contact (or the other way around), you can clone their profile in a couple of clicks. Their details carry over automatically, so there is no re-entry.
To clone many people at once, see Clone many candidates to contacts (or contacts to candidates) at once.
Single clone or bulk clone?
Single clone: from one person's profile. Best for one record.
Bulk clone: from the Candidates or Contacts table. Best for many records. Recruiterflow emails you when the batch finishes.
Clone a candidate as a contact
Open the candidate's profile.
Click the three dots (⋯) next to their name.
Select Clone as contact.
A contact profile is created immediately with the candidate's details copied over.
Clone a contact as a candidate
Open the contact's profile.
Click the three dots (⋯) next to their name.
Select Clone as candidate.
A candidate profile is created with the contact's details copied over.
Things to know
The original profile is not deleted. Cloning creates a new profile and the source profile stays intact.
Both profiles are independent after cloning. Changes to one will not sync to the other.
All basic details copy over, including name, email, phone, and other profile fields. Job history and activity from the source profile do not transfer.
The profile header always shows whether you are looking at a Candidate or a Contact.
