Resume Screening Process Flow Diagram Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Description

Leverage this six-step resume screening slide to visualize your hiring workflow from initial collection to candidate shortlisting. Vibrant oval shapes arranged on alternating sides of a central connector line present each step—collect resumes, perform a quick scan, separate into No/Maybe/Yes piles, double-check each pile, conduct a deep review of the “Yes” pile, and move top candidates to the hiring stage. Each shape features a crisp icon, bold step number, and editable text placeholder to ensure clarity and consistency across your presentation. The design employs multi-colored gradients—red, teal, purple, pink, amber and green—paired with rounded corners and subtle drop shadows for a modern, professional look. Compatible with both dark and light themes, this template is fully customizable via master slides, allowing you to adjust colors, swap icons, and reorder steps in seconds without breaking formatting. Optimized for PowerPoint and Google Slides, it maintains perfect resolution and alignment across devices and during collaboration. Whether you’re guiding recruiters through process training, outlining project milestones, or mapping any multi-step workflow, this flow diagram enhances audience comprehension and engagement with its structured layout and visual appeal.

The timeline steps are connected by a sleek vertical line with directional arrows to convey progression and can be adapted to any number of steps by duplicating or hiding placeholders. Use icon libraries or upload your own symbols to reflect domain-specific actions. The slide’s balanced symmetry and generous white space on both themes reduces cognitive load and guides viewer focus, making it ideal for technical briefings and HR presentations. No advanced PowerPoint skills are required – simply drag and drop placeholders, edit text, and apply your brand’s color scheme via master slides.
