[Allsorter Nexus](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/allsorter-nexus) # How to Share a Candidate Shortlist with a Hiring Manager ## Build a shareable portal to send your shortlist to a hiring manager Once you have sourced and reviewed candidates in Nexus, you can submit your shortlist to a hiring manager and receive their feedback. This article covers two related features: using shortcuts to work through your candidates faster, and building a Hiring Manager Portal to share your shortlist.  Hiring Manager Portal is a Nexus feature that you can request Allsorter's Customer Success team to turn on for your account. This article and the guided walkthrough below describes the Hiring Manager Portal.    - Before you can source or review candidates, the company and job must already exist in Nexus. For steps on creating these, see [**Getting Started with Allsorter Nexus**](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/nexus-intro). - Here is how you can source add and review candidates in Nexus: [**NexusSourcing**](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/nexus-sourcing) [Using Shortcuts to Work Faster](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/hiring-manager-portal#shortcuts) [Sharing Candidate Shortlist with a Hiring Manager](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/hiring-manager-portal#sharing-portal) [Hiring Manager Experience](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/hiring-manager-portal#hiring-manager-experience) [Frequently Asked Questions](https://help-center.allsorter.com/helpcentre/hiring-manager-portal#faq) ### **Using Shortcuts to Work Faster** Nexus shows a row of shortcut pills above the message box. Each shortcut is a ready-made prompt that runs a common task against your candidates, such as asking which candidates have a particular skill or comparing top candidates for a role, without you needing to type out the full question. *![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-21-36-9731-PM.png?width=670&height=157&name=image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-21-36-9731-PM.png)* You can also create your own custom shortcuts for actions you use often: 1. Select the **+** button next to the message box to open the quick actions menu. 2. Select **Suggestion** to create a custom shortcut. *![03-suggestion-custom-shortcut](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/03-suggestion-custom-shortcut.png?width=670&height=346&name=03-suggestion-custom-shortcut.png)*   ### **How to Share Your Candidate Shortlist with a Hiring Manager** The Hiring Manager Portal is a shareable portal you can send to a hiring manager, containing the candidates you have saved to the current job so they can review them and give feedback. 1. Select the **+** button next to the message box to open the quick actions menu. 2. Under **Tools**, select **Hiring Manager**. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-40-18-6891-PM.png?width=670&height=425&name=image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-40-18-6891-PM.png) 3. The **Build Hiring Manager Portal** window opens. Choose how to fill in the job details: - **Use current job** — prefills the portal with the job title and job description from the job you are currently working in. You can still edit these fields afterwards. - **Add manually** — enter the job title and description yourself. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-42-15-9307-PM.png?width=670&height=507&name=image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-42-15-9307-PM.png) 4. A clear, well-structured job description matters here: Nexus uses it to generate a summary of each candidate based on how well they match the role. 5. Enter the hiring manager's email address in **Hiring Manager Emails**. Select **+ Add Another Email** if you want to send the portal to more than one person.![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-42-30-9892-PM.png?width=670&height=266&name=image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-42-30-9892-PM.png) 6. The window shows which candidates from your current session will be included in the portal. You can confirm which ones you want to send and select the file to attach to each candidate (original or formatted).![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-47-01-1739-PM.png?width=670&height=503&name=image-png-Sep-29-2026-03-47-01-1739-PM.png) 7. Select **Build Portal** to save your changes and send the candidates to the email address(es) you entered. 8. Once the portal has been created, you can still go ahead and 1. **Edit job details** when you receive updated specs or more details. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-48-57-3493-AM.png?width=670&height=336&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-48-57-3493-AM.png) 2. **Invite more hiring managers** from the same company to review the candidates. Navigate to Hiring Managers, type out the new manager's email and click on **Send Invite**.![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-49-41-2929-AM.png?width=670&height=250&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-49-41-2929-AM.png) You will be able to see if they access the portal. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-54-18-9781-AM.png?width=670&height=388&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-54-18-9781-AM.png) 3. **Upload more resumes** as you shortlist other candidates for the job. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-46-26-1803-AM.png?width=670&height=339&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-46-26-1803-AM.png) 9. You can track the hiring manager's interactions with the candidates, even see how long each profile was viewed by opening the relevant Hiring Manager Portal and clicking on **Analytics**. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-43-24-2477-AM.png?width=670&height=334&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-43-24-2477-AM.png) 10. In the **Candidates** menu, you can see if a candidate has been starred for consideration later, confirmed or rejected. ![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-48-01-5226-AM.png?width=670&height=355&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-48-01-5226-AM.png) ### **Hiring Manager Experience** Once you select **Build Portal**, your shortlist is sent to the hiring manager and is ready for their feedback. 1.

For each candidate, they can see the top matches and potential gaps as well as the full resume if they scroll down.![](https://help-center.allsorter.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-09-30-4372-AM.png?width=670&height=331&name=image-png-Sep-24-2026-09-09-30-4372-AM.png) 4.
