These six stages group the states the system actually records. Every stage that is not closed carries an owner and a date, which is what stops an application going quiet.
Where an employer has no applicant-tracking system connected, Continuum tracks these states itself — nothing here is read from an external system, and no integration is implied.

Interview practice for this role
Question 3 of 4Questions come from this role's own requirements. The suggested answer is built from your approved evidence — it is a shape to speak in, not a script to memorise, and it never invents an example for you.
What did you achieve using Python?
They want to hear: A real example where you used Python.
You have no approved evidence for this one yet — see the suggestion below before you answer.
Nothing here is saved or shared — this is a rehearsal space.
Show a strong answer & tips
You have no approved evidence for Python, so any model answer here would be fiction. Say something like this instead:
"I haven't worked on Python directly yet. The closest I've done is [the nearest real thing — a module, a project, a task at a club or job], and here is how I'd approach a Python problem: [break the problem down, what you would check first, who you would ask]."
That answer holds up under follow-up questions. An invented one does not. Better still: add the nearest real example in My evidence, and this practice will build a full answer from it.

• Never invent an example — one follow-up question exposes it.
• Naming the nearest real thing you did is stronger than a perfect story you cannot defend.
