You contact them directly from within the system. mana HR manages retention periods and consents in a GDPR-compliant way. The talent pool works day to day without becoming a second piece of software. No separate tool, no extra login. Plus personal customer success support included by default.
In depth: What mana HR can do with the talent pool
How does the talent pool work at mana HR?
You move candidates from applicant management into the talent pool when they're a good fit in general but there's no open role for them right now. In the pool, you find them again through search with filters. When a matching role opens up, you contact them directly from within mana HR.
The pool is built right into the ATS. There's no separate tool and no extra login. That keeps the talent pool part of everyday recruiting instead of disappearing into a silo.
Is the talent pool GDPR-compliant?
Yes. mana HR manages retention periods and consents right inside the talent pool. Once the retention period ends, candidates are automatically flagged for deletion. That matters especially in the DACH region, where data protection isn't an optional feature but a foundation. No more tracking in Excel when which data needs to be deleted.
How do I find candidates in the pool again?
Through search with filters. You search by keyword, qualification, location or previous applications and filter the results. That way you find the relevant profiles even in a growing pool, without scrolling through hundreds of entries.
