TERN Platform: Step-by-Step Guide to Global Recruitment

TERN’s client platform dashboard — enabling healthcare employers to access verified candidate profiles, streamline hiring, and manage global recruitment efficiently

Imagine you’re Sarah, a hiring manager at a UK hospital, tasked with finding a skilled doctor from India to join your team — or you’re Lukas, a healthcare administrator at a leading German clinic, urgently needing a qualified nurse to strengthen your workforce. The clock is ticking, and you need a candidate who’s not only qualified but also ready to relocate. Enter TERN, the world’s first end-to-end global recruitment platform. Ranging from healthcare to tech, in this comprehensive user experience guide, we’ll walk you through every click, filter, and feature of TERN’s Client Platform, showing you exactly how it transforms complex international hiring into a seamless, stress-free process.

Step 1: Diving into TERN’s Global Talent Pool

You log into TERN’s Client Platform at tern.ai and are greeted by a sleek, modern dashboard. The interface is intuitive, with a prominent “Browse Candidates” button pulsating with a subtle animation. You click it, and instantly, a grid of vibrant profile cards loads, each representing a vetted healthcare professional from countries like India, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Jordan, Egypt, South Africa, or the UK.

  • What You See: Each profile card showcases a candidate’s photo, name, role (e.g., “Registered Nurse”), and country of origin. As you hover over a card from India, it flips to reveal key details: years of experience, language proficiency, and certifications. The card’s design shifts subtly to reflect the candidate’s role—nurse profiles highlight clinical skills, while doctor profiles emphasise specialisations.
  • What You Do: You click the “Filter” button at the top. A dropdown menu lets you select “Nurse,” “India,” and “Fluent English.” Within seconds, the grid refreshes, showing only candidates matching your criteria.
  • The Experience: The platform feels alive, with smooth transitions and colourful globe icons popping up to highlight candidate origins. It’s like browsing a digital marketplace of talent, tailored to your needs. Welcome to a new experience of global healthcare hiring!

Step 2: AI-Powered Candidate Matching

With dozens of nurse profiles at your fingertips, you’re ready to narrow down the perfect fit. TERN’s AI-powered matching system takes center stage here, working behind the scenes to recommend candidates who align with your job posting for a “Registered Nurse with 3+ years of ICU experience.”

  • What You See: On the “Hire” tab, a list of top matches appears, each accompanied by a pre-screening score (e.g., 92/100). You click on a candidate named Maria, and her profile expands to reveal a detailed AI-generated report. It breaks down her language skills (English: C1 level), professionalism (rated 4.8/5), and technical knowledge (certified in ICU protocols).
  • What You Do: You sort the matches by “Experience” to prioritize senior nurses. You also toggle a filter for “Available to Relocate” to ensure Maria can move to the UK within three months.
  • The Experience: The AI feels like a trusted assistant, presenting only the most relevant candidates. The pre-screening report is a game-changer—its clear, data-driven insights let you trust Maria’s qualifications without digging through resumes. A subtle animation of a “match” icon sparks as Maria’s profile loads, reinforcing the platform’s precision.

Step 3: Scheduling Interviews with Ease

Maria’s profile looks promising, so you decide to schedule an interview. TERN’s interview scheduling tool makes this effortless, even across time zones.

  • What You See: On Maria’s profile, a “Schedule Interview” button glows invitingly. Clicking it opens a pop-up with a calendar synced to your availability. The platform suggests times that work for both you (in London) and Maria (in Manila), factoring in the 7-hour time difference.
  • What You Do: You select a slot for tomorrow at 10 AM GMT, choose Microsoft Teams as the platform (teams.microsoft.com), and click “Send Invite.” Maria receives a branded email with the meeting link, and the interview is added to your TERN dashboard.
  • The Experience: The process takes under 30 seconds, and the platform’s integration with Teams feels seamless. A confirmation notification pops up with a satisfying chime, leaving you confident that the interview is set.

Step 4: Sending Offers in Two Clicks

Maria aces the interview, and you’re ready to make her an offer. TERN’s offer management system simplifies this critical step.

  • What You See: Back on Maria’s profile, a “Send Offer” button appears. Clicking it opens a pre-filled offer template with fields for salary, start date, and contract terms. The template is branded with your hospital’s logo, giving it a professional touch.
  • What You Do: You adjust the salary to £35,000 and set the start date for three months out. With two clicks—“Review” and “Send”—the offer is emailed to Maria, and a copy is saved in your dashboard.
  • The Experience: The process feels effortless, like sending an email but with the weight of a life-changing job offer. A celebratory animation of confetti bursts across the screen as the offer is sent, making the moment feel rewarding.

Step 5: Transparent Post-Offer Management

Maria accepts the offer, and now the real work begins: onboarding an international candidate. TERN’s post-offer management tools keep you in control every step of the way.

  • What You See: Your dashboard now features a “Hired Candidates” section, with Maria’s profile prominently displayed. A progress bar shows her onboarding status: “Visa Processing (50% Complete).” Clicking her profile reveals a task tracker listing action items, such as “Upload Passport” (Maria’s task) and “Approve Visa Documents” (your task).
  • What You Do: You upload a signed contract to TERN’s document hub, a secure repository that acts as a single source of truth for all paperwork. You also check Maria’s relocation timeline, which confirms her arrival in London in 12 weeks.
  • The Experience: The dashboard feels like a command centre, with clear visuals and real-time updates. Globe icons animate to show visa progress, and a notification pings when Maria uploads her passport, keeping you in the loop. The transparency is reassuring—nothing slips through the cracks.

Step 6: Exploring Verified Public Profiles

Before finalising Maria’s hire, you explore TERN’s Public Profiles feature to double-check her credentials.

  • What You See: Maria’s public profile includes a verified badge next to her nursing license, a detailed career history (e.g., “3 years at Manila General Hospital”), and a short video where she introduces herself. Her warm smile and confident tone make her stand out.
  • What You Do: You review her certifications, which are timestamped and linked to issuing authorities. Satisfied, you mark her profile as “Approved” for onboarding.
  • The Experience: The public profile feels like a digital resume brought to life. The video adds a personal touch, making Maria feel like a colleague rather than a distant candidate.
