The information can be accessed from the time that the advert has opened on eRecruitment (i.e. where the Start Date is => sysdate) {PERO-1 Approval and Placement of Advert on eRecruitment}, even if no Applications have yet been received.   The number of applicants and summary details of each applicant is displayed, which may be useful when determining if the date range that applications are opened for should be extended.  The information can be exported in excel.  In addition the information may be used to head hunt potential candidates for similar positions.
