I am currently working on the onboarding of a recruitment application. Modules in this application are inter dependent. If want to create a job opening, I have to create a Candidate first.

In the onboarding process, if the user goes and clicks the job opening instead of Candidate, I thought of asking the user if he is okay to add sample data here.

I have attached screenshots of my idea. Is it correct to give sample details to the user? is it good UX?

  • It's a good idea, but I question why you have to create a candidate in order to create a job listing. If you are recruiting, usually the listing will need to exist before you have candidates for it? This flow seems strange to me.

If the user clicks on job opening instead of Candidate, then you should let him/her fill up the job opening form, without interruptions (in this case, candidate creation is a big blocker).

  • Firstly, you could ask the user: If you want to create Job opening directly before creating a candidate?
  • If he proceeds, instead of asking for the user to give sample data, my suggestion is (also better from a usability perspective), Log him in as a guest user (such as Guest19982 or JobProvider221). Then you can ask him/her to fill up the candidate details later once they have completed their initial objective.
