If your applicant pipeline in WootRecruit Hub looks empty, here’s exactly why that might happen and how to fix it. This guide will help you identify common causes so your pipeline accurately reflects your candidates’ progress.

Why Your Applicant Pipeline Might Be Empty

1. No Applicants Have Applied Yet

   ✅ If your job post is new, it may take time for applicants to appear.

   ✅ Check that your job postings are active and published to the correct channels.

2. Filters Are Hiding Applicants

   • Review your pipeline filters (date range, position, status).
   • Clear filters to see all candidates.

3. Applicants Haven’t Progressed to a Stage

   • New applicants may still be in the Applied status and not yet moved to Passed, Scheduled, or other columns.
   • Confirm your workflow automation is active so candidates move automatically.

4. Data Export vs. Live View

   • Remember that exporting applicant data does not populate the pipeline—it’s a separate view.
   • Always check the live pipeline for real-time movement.

⚠️ Important Notes

• The pipeline is updated automatically, but only when candidates complete certain steps.
• If you believe there are missing applicants, contact your dedicated Sherpa or support@wootrecruit.com for troubleshooting.

Done! Your pipeline should now display the correct applicant data and help you track candidates from start to finish.
