Common issues with candidate files

How do I get help with uploading my candidate file?



When you upload a candidate file you should be able to see what exactly has gone wrong.

Here are some likely issues:

• Blank Field/Cells - Make sure to check for any blank cells/fields in your file. A single blank cell/field on your file will show as an error when uploading.


• Columns - Make sure that you have mapped the right columns in the field selector after uploading.
• DOB format - The system only accepts YYYY-MM-DD or DD/MM/YYYY.

If you get date of birth issues you can try setting the date format in Excel.
• Empty row - If you get an error about extra empty rows at the bottom of your entries, here's what you can do:

1. Cancel the upload and open your CSV or Excel file.

2. Copy the cells where you have data into a new CSV or Excel file.
3. Save and upload the new file.
