Candidate statuses on juucy show you exactly where each of your submitted candidates stand in the hiring process. Knowing what each status means helps you track progress, manage expectations, and communicate effectively with all included parties such as your candidates, company representatives and the juucy Quality Control.
Below is an overview of all possible statuses and how to interpret them:
Your candidate was successfully submitted and will now be reviewed by juucy’s Quality Control team.
What to do:
No action required. Our team will check if the candidate matches the briefing and either forward them to the client or provide feedback if anything is missing. You will be notified via mail about every status change including this one.
The candidate is currently under review by juucy. Additional information might be required before the candidate can be forwarded (this can be for instance a voice sample if there is uncertainty about the language requirement fit). You should have received an E-Mail about this and a comment was created in the candidate comments section awaiting your reply.
What to do:
If a candidate remains in this status for a while, double-check that you provided all essential information (resume, salary expectations, motivation, etc.).
The candidate was already forwarded to this exact role by another recruiter or the candidate applied to this role him- or herself outside of juucy. We made a standalone article about this case which you can read here.
What to do:
No further steps are needed. You can focus your efforts on new candidates for this position.
The candidate passed Quality Control and was forwarded to the client company. The client has been notified and will review the candidate shortly.
What to do:
Stay patient — this is a good sign! You can follow up with the client through juucy by using the comment section if the review takes longer than expected.
The client is currently reviewing the candidate internally. This may include an initial resume screening or a short internal discussion with the hiring department. Beware that candidate feedback ultimately depends on the amount and structure complexity of the decision stakeholders involved. Usually the more parties involved, the longer feedback can take.
What to do:
Nothing urgent here. Just keep an eye on the candidate’s status for updates. You will of course be notified via mail once a status change occurs.
The candidate was not selected to move forward in the process.
What to do:
You can check the feedback (usually a rejection reason is provided) and use it to refine future submissions for this or similar roles.
The candidate has been invited to an interview by the client — great job!
What to do:
Prepare your candidate. Ensure they understand the company, the role, and the interview setup (time, format, participants). Well-prepared candidates have a much higher success rate.
The client decided not to proceed after the interview stage.
What to do:
Collect feedback if available and share it with your candidate. This helps you both learn and improve future matches.
The candidate successfully completed the first round of interviews.
What to do:
Follow up with the client or monitor for updates. In some cases, you might want to check if additional interview rounds are planned.
Remember: as a recruiter, you’re not just a messenger — you’re a partner to the client throughout the process.
Use this stage to exchange valuable insights:
These two perspectives are incredibly helpful to strengthen alignment, maintain candidate engagement, and prepare them even better for the next interview.

What to do:
