Before you convert
The Convert to Staff Member button only becomes available once the candidate’s stage is set to Offer Accepted. To reach this stage:- Record the offer in the Offer tab — include the role, centre, start date, employment type, and method of offer
- Set the outcome to Accepted — this automatically advances the stage to Offer Accepted and unlocks the convert button
