Introduction
In this release, we launched some new features and also improved the existing functionalities of the system. Here are the points showing the enhancements and new features in this release.

Electronic Signature

In the recruitment process, the electronic signature is a great way to save the cost and time of recruiters and HRs. We have done the integration with the eversign to facilitate the electronic signature part from the system.

You can create your Eversign account using the following link. https://eversign.com/

Alternatively, the system is going to show you connect option when you try to generate offer letter or create documents.

You can use the electronic signature in the following scenarios.

Candidate onboarding

When you onboard any candidate, all the onboarding documents can be managed through the electronic signature.

Offer letter

You can generate offer letter and get it signed by the candidate with the electronic signature.
You can contact support in case you need any assistance to set up eversign integration.

Contact show Active/All

Now it is possible to see active and inactive contacts together. If you select All options both active and inactive will get displayed. If you wish to see just active.

Referral management - Invite Candidates

Now it is possible to include candidates also to take part in the referral campaign. When you click on the Run Referral, the system is going to show you the following dialog where you can select the option whether you want to consider employee or candidate.

By default, all candidates will not take part in the referral campaign. If you wish to enable the candidate to take part in the referral campaign, just update the setting in the candidate information.

Auto-update Age of Candidate

Many upon a time the age is one of the important aspects when you recruit the people and it’s a very tedious job for the recruiter to update it every year.

To overcome this situation, the system is going to update the information of candidate age all the time so you will always get an accurate search result.

You can contact support in case you want to enable this option.

Referral Report - Analytics part

We have enhanced the referral report and start showing some key.
Also, we try to show some analytics considering Candidate Status and Top Referrer.

UI/UX Changes

We try to optimize the UI/UX of the application. Here are some key changes.

- Calendar

- Timeline

- Onboarding

Automated Email

The system used to send various kinds of automated emails to system users and candidates. To send such automated emails, earlier it was mandatory to configure the system email. To simplify the process, now we send all the email through our out of box mass email service so no need of any configuration.

Here are the two categories of automated emails.

- Interview create, update, cancelled emails

If individual email is configured, the individual email address will be used for sending the emails. If individual email is not configured, mass email service will be used for sending the emails.

- Other automated emails like application received, interview reminders etc. It will always be done through the mass email service.

Once the candidate is hired, offer letter generation and authorization is one of the important processes.

The following are the steps you can perform to generate the offer letter.
There are two ways to handle the offer letter.
