We have teamed up with a third party provider called Symfony Lab to bring you the long awaited "Hide & Seek" the browser plugin which enables the speedy creation and update of candidate records.

To get started with this huge time saving tool, please go the chrome web store. To save on further instructions on where to find it, please click the below link.

Once you have added it to chrome, we recommend pinning the plugin as shown below

Now that you have downloaded the extension & pinned it, you will need to raise a ticket with support and request that they generate the API credentials which will be stored in the backend of your database.

Once it has been confirmed that your API credentials have been created, you can now enter your username & password along with your subdomain (this is your database address minus the https and the .recruitsonline.com. It is important at this stage, that you go to any individuals profile page and enter your login details, otherwise you will get an error.

Now that you are set up, any time you see a contact on Linkedin or Xing, you can either add them to your system or update their record, just click on the binoculars (at this point the plugin will be able to create new candidates* & clients and tell you if the candidate or client contact already exists.

*Please note, when you are creating a candidate you will need to wait between 5-7 seconds for the confirmation message. This is because it is creating a record and a searchable CV inside eBoss.
