Candidate Data Mapping / Work Experiences🔗

This section allows the administrator to map work history items available in Salesforce as related records, which are then merged with any work items extracted from the candidate's resume (if provided), and deduplicated where possible. This allows Textkernel to calculate the candidate's last/current job title and experience.
