First Claim
1. A system for automated candidate recruiting using a network, the system comprising:
- a candidate web engine operable to communicate with the network and to present a candidate survey form to a client of the network, the candidate web engine further operable to receive candidate qualification data from the client that is entered in the form; and
a candidate mapping engine in communication with the candidate web engine, the candidate mapping engine operable to receive the candidate qualification data from the candidate web engine and generate at least one candidate identifier in response to parsing the candidate qualification data, the candidate mapping engine further operable to index the at least one candidate identifier in response to the parsed candidate qualification data, the at least one candidate identifier being linked to a candidate record, the candidate record storing the candidate qualification data, wherein the candidate record includes a status field, the status field being updated by the candidate mapping engine in response to a recruiting event.

Abstract
A system for automated candidate recruiting using a network includes a candidate web engine operable to communicate with the network and to present a candidate survey form to a client of the network, the candidate web engine further operable to receive candidate qualification data from the client that is entered in the form. The system further includes a candidate mapping engine in communication with the candidate web engine, the candidate mapping engine operable to receive the candidate qualification data from the candidate web engine and generate at least one candidate identifier in response to parsing the candidate qualification data. The candidate mapping engine is further operable to index the at least one candidate identifier in response to the parsed candidate qualification data. The at least one candidate identifier is linked to a candidate record. The candidate record stores the candidate qualification data.

6. The system of claim 3, wherein the filter engine includes a list of minimum candidate requirements, and wherein the filter engine transfers the candidate qualification data from the candidate web engine to the candidate mapping engine in response to comparing the candidate qualification data to the list of minimum candidate requirements.
-
7. The system of claim 4, wherein the candidate survey form includes at least one field of selectable inputs, each selectable input corresponding to the candidate qualification of a predetermined one of the categories of the graphical candidate map.
-
8. The system of claim 5, wherein the candidate mapping engine further includes a plurality of versions of the candidate review template, the candidate mapping engine determining a selected one of the plurality of versions to be communicated to a client of the network in response to an asserted identification of the client'"'"'s user, each version displaying different fields of information associated with the candidate record.

9. A system for automated candidate recruiting using a network, the system comprising:
-
a candidate web engine operable to communicate with the network and to present a candidate survey form to a client of the network, the candidate web engine further operable to receive candidate qualification data from the client that is entered in the form; and
a candidate mapping engine in communication with the candidate web engine, the candidate mapping engine operable to receive the candidate qualification data from the candidate web engine and generate at least one candidate identifier in response to parsing the candidate qualification data, the candidate mapping engine further operable to index the at least one candidate identifier in response to the parsed candidate qualification data, the at least one candidate identifier being linked to a candidate record, the candidate record storing the candidate qualification data, wherein the candidate record includes a feedback field operable to store feedback data on a candidate.

10. A method of automated candidate recruiting over a network, the method comprising:
-
parsing candidate qualification data from a candidate profile in response to receiving the candidate profile over the network;
storing the received candidate profile in a candidate record, wherein the candidate record includes a status field and a feedback field, the status field being updated in response to a recruiting event, and the feedback field storing feedback data on a candidate;
generating a plurality of candidate identifiers associated with the parsed candidate qualification data, each candidate identifier being linked to the candidate record;
comparing the candidate qualification data to a candidate map; and
assigning one of the candidate identifiers to a category of the candidate map in response to the compared candidate qualification data. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
receiving an input from a client of the network, the input selecting at least one candidate identifier from the candidate map; and
updating a job posting record with a copy of the candidate identifier in response to receiving the input.
-
-
13. The method of claim 10, wherein generating a plurality of candidate identifiers comprises generating a candidate identifier for each item of parsed candidate qualification data.
-
14. The method of claim 10, and further comprising:
-
receiving a job criterion associated with a job posting;
comparing the job criterion to a candidate qualification associated with the category of the candidate map; and
selecting each candidate identifier assigned to the category of the candidate map in response to comparing the job criterion.
-
-
15. The method of claim 13, wherein assigning one of the candidate identifiers further comprises assigning one of the candidate identifiers to a particular category of the candidate map that corresponds to one item of the parsed candidate qualification data.
-
16. The method of claim 14, wherein comparing the job criterion to a candidate qualification further comprises comparing the job criterion to a proficiency associated with the candidate qualification.
