Hiring teams often discover great candidates outside job portals and recruitment platforms. These contacts may come from:
- Employee referrals
- Previous applicants
- Resume databases
- Vendor references
- Social Platforms
- Freelancers and consultants
- Networking events
- Bench sales teams
- Internal databases
- Walk-in interviews
- Email conversations
Traditionally, these contacts get stored in spreadsheets, emails, notebooks, or disconnected systems, making future hiring difficult and time consuming.
Talent Lists on CoHire.com solves this problem by allowing users to add anyone into their private hiring network, even if they are not already members of CoHire.com.
How to Add External Candidates or Contacts
Using Talent Lists is simple and flexible.
Option 1: Add Individual Contacts
Users can manually add:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
Once saved, the person becomes part of your custom Talent List and can later be used for hiring, shortlisting, referrals, or future job opportunities.
This is useful for recruiters who want to quickly save profiles while sourcing candidates or networking.
Option 2: Bulk Upload Candidate Lists
For larger hiring teams and staffing companies, CoHire.com also supports bulk uploads using Excel templates.
You can import:
- Candidate databases
- Vendor contacts
- Bench resources
- Referral lists
- Existing hiring spreadsheets
This helps businesses centralize their recruitment data into one searchable system.
What Happens After Adding External Contacts?
When a candidate or contact is added to Talent Lists:
- Their information is securely stored inside your Talent Network
- You can search, filter, organize, and manage them anytime
- You can move them directly into active jobs on CoHire.com
- CoHire.com may invite them to verify their profile and join the platform
This creates a smart recruitment ecosystem where recruiters continue growing their hiring network while candidates get opportunities to connect with jobs and employers.
