Who it's for: anyone deciding which list type to create.
Product: Client Portal
Where: Job submission lists or Marketing lists in the left menu
Use a job submission list (Client Portal) when you send candidates to one client company for a job. Use a marketing list (Talent Marketplace) when you show the same candidates to many companies.
How do the two list types compare?
Job submission list (Client Portal) | Marketing list (Talent Marketplace) | |
Share with | One company | Many companies |
Clients see each other | Yes. Everyone at the client sees each other's messages and requests | No. Each client only sees their own requests and messages |
Submission stages | Yes. Stage column (To review, Interview, Declined and your own stages). Clients can move candidates between stages | No stages |
Who gets a candidate's emails | Set per candidate: Colleagues receiving notifications and Clients receiving notifications | All list assignees, or the contact owner (Inbound Messages Routing) |
Change the order of candidates | Drag a card within its stage | Turn on Sorting Mode |
Typical use | A shortlist for one open job | Available candidates, a skill pool, contractors coming free |
Menu | Job submission lists | Marketing lists (megaphone icon) |
Who sees what on a job submission list?
When you share a job submission list with several people at the same client, they work on it together. For example, a second contact sees the first contact's CV request, interview request and messages, and the CV once you reveal it.
That's why a job submission list is for one company only. If you add contacts from two different companies, they'd see each other's feedback.
The client collaboration check
The Share dialog reminds you that a job submission list is for one company, and that people there see each other's messages and requests.
What do both list types share?
Both list types use the same building blocks: branding, candidate appearance, list access and CV visibility, candidate data control, email templates, client notifications, Bullhorn import and the client portal login.
Good to know
Choose the type when you create the list: Job submission lists → Create new list, or Marketing lists → Create new list.
The Client Portal and Talent Marketplace are separate parts of your plan. If one of the menus is missing, ask us in the chat.
You can't change a list's type after you create it. Create a new list of the other type instead.
Pro tip: Showing the same candidates to several client companies? Use a marketing list instead. Each client then only sees their own requests and messages.
