- Date of birth – for foreign candidates without Swedish identification

2. Create the relevant field(s):
– personal-number – for personal numbers
– coordination-number – for coordination numbers
– date-of-birth – for date of birth
Adding Identification to Candidates
You have two options:
Option 1: Manual entry Enter the identification directly on the candidate’s profile in the custom field before moving them to the background check stage.
Option 2: Candidate self-service (optional) Set up a message trigger in an earlier stage asking candidates to provide their personal number. Include the word “personnummer” in the message text.
