If you want to fulfill a hiring need without creating a Recruitment Requisition or without connecting the Applicant to a Requisition, you can reserve the Applicant for selection process. 'Reserve' option allows you to change the Applicant status from Registered to Reserved. 'Reserved' status indicate that the Applicant has been considered for selection process or Offer process.
Note: If you get the Applicant from SmartRecruiters (Global ATS), and if the Applicant is not connected to an active Requisition, you will see the newly created Applicant in 'Reserved' status. You can directly move ahead by changing the status as 'Offered' as you have already completed the selection process using ATS.
To perform this activity an Applicant record should be available in 'Registered' status.
As a result of this activity, the status of the Applicant changes to Reserved from Registered status.
