Cloning a Candidate as a Contact (and Vice Versa)

Clone a candidate profile into a contact, or a contact into a candidate, in just a couple of clicks — no re-uploading needed.

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. All their details carry over automatically — no re-entry needed.

Clone a candidate as a contact

  1. Open the candidate's profile

  2. Click the three dots (⋯) next to their name

  3. Select Clone as contact

A contact profile is created immediately with all the candidate's details copied over.

Things to know

  • The original profile is not deleted. Cloning creates a new profile — the source profile stays intact.

  • Both profiles are independent after cloning. Changes to one won't sync to the other.

  • All basic details copy over — name, email, phone, and other profile fields. Job history and activity from the source profile do not transfer.
