Job stats

Each job's page answers "where is this role at" with three exact numbers: how many people applied, how many your team has dealt with, and how many are waiting on a decision.

Needs review

1. 1

   Step 1: Total

   Every application for this job, however it arrived: through the apply page, by email or by bulk import. Rejected and withdrawn applications are included.

2. 2

   Step 2: Reviewed

   Applications that have moved past New, other than those counted in Needs review. Candidates in review, in interviews, with an offer, hired, rejected or withdrawn all count here.

3. 3

   Step 3: Needs review

   Applications where the AI recommends rejection, or a knockout answer flagged them, and a person has not decided yet. A coral dot appears beside the label while the number is above zero.

Where to find it

Open a job from Jobs. On a wide screen the Applicants card sits at the top of the right-hand column; on a phone it comes straight after the job's title.

The jobs list shows the total for every role too, next to the people icon on each card.

Go from the numbers to the people

Select the card to open Candidates filtered to this job. From there you can open each candidate, or filter further. See The candidates list.

The candidates waiting in Needs review are also collected, across all your jobs, under Review in the sidebar. See The review queue.

How to read the numbers

• New applications are the gap between Total and the other two: applications that are still being screened, or were scored and are waiting for someone to look at them.
• An application a knockout answer flagged counts in Needs review until someone rejects it or scores it anyway. See Screening questions and knockouts.
• Before November 2026 a knockout answer rejected the application straight away. Those applications count as Reviewed, because their status is already rejected, and you can restore them from the candidate's page.
• The numbers are worked out fresh each time you open the page, so they always match the candidates list.

Who can see it

Everyone whose role can view applications sees the card: by default Owners, Admins, Recruiters, Hiring Managers and Viewers. See Roles and permissions.

For trends across roles, such as time to hire or how many applicants reach an interview, use Analytics. See Velocity, quality, experience and roles.
