Feature Request: Export Functionality for Candidate Comparisons

This is exactly the bottleneck I've been hitting with technical role screening - the comparison tool gives great insights internally, but translating that to hiring managers becomes this manual data reconstruction exercise. I've definitely done the screenshot-and-explain dance more times than I'd like, especially when trying to show why one candidate's technical skills align better with our stack requirements. A clean export feature would eliminate that friction and actually let stakeholders see the data properly instead of my amateur PowerPoint interpretations.

The export functionality gap is particularly problematic when you're dealing with multiple stakeholders who have different data preferences - some want the visual radar charts while others need raw numbers for their own analysis. I've found that the manual recreation process not only wastes time but also introduces potential errors when translating the comparison insights, which undermines the credibility of the assessment. A standardized export format would definitely streamline our approval workflows and ensure consistent presentation across different hiring committees.

Totally feel this pain point! I've been in similar situations where I'm scrambling to recreate those clean comparison visuals for stakeholder meetings, and it always feels like I'm not doing the data justice. The radar charts are honestly one of my favorite features for quickly showing candidate strengths, but you're right that the manual export process breaks the flow completely.

I've started scheduling quick screen-sharing sessions instead of trying to recreate everything, but that's not always practical when people are in different time zones or need to review asynchronously. A proper export feature would be a huge workflow improvement - especially for those of us juggling multiple roles and tight hiring timelines.

Oh wow, this resonates so much! I literally had this exact scenario last week trying to present candidates for our marketing manager role to our leadership team. I ended up doing this awkward hybrid approach where I'd have the Talantly interface open on one screen while frantically typing bullet points in a separate doc - definitely not my smoothest moment! 😅 The radar charts really are perfect for showing at-a-glance strengths, but you're so right about losing that interactive value when you're stuck with static screenshots. I've been experimenting with recording quick Loom videos walking through the comparisons, which helps a bit with the storytelling aspect, but it's still not ideal for stakeholders who want to dig into the details on their own time. An export feature would honestly be a game-changer for those of us wearing multiple hats and trying to make data-driven hiring decisions look as polished as they actually are!

This hits on a critical workflow gap that's probably costing all of us significant time in the decision-making process. I've found myself in similar situations where the visual data tells such a clear story, but translating that into stakeholder-friendly formats becomes this whole separate project. The challenge isn't just the export itself - it's maintaining the narrative flow that helps leadership understand why candidate A's technical depth matters more for this role than candidate B's broader skill set. A streamlined sharing mechanism would definitely help us spend more time on strategic hiring decisions rather than data formatting.

Oh wow, this is exactly what I've been struggling with! In financial services, our hiring managers are used to seeing everything in clean, executive-ready formats, and trying to explain why one candidate's risk management skills outweigh another's without those visual comparisons is like describing a painting over the phone. I've actually started scheduling quick screen shares instead of trying to recreate the data, but that's not always practical with everyone's calendars. A PDF export with the radar charts would be perfect for our monthly talent pipeline reviews - our leadership team loves visual data but definitely needs it in a format they can reference offline during their decision meetings.

Yes! This is such a real pain point - I've been dealing with the exact same thing since July. The comparison tool is fantastic for my own analysis, but when it comes to presenting to our medical team leads or CEO, I end up doing this awkward dance of trying to recreate the insights in slides. What's particularly frustrating in healthcare tech is that our clinical stakeholders are incredibly data-driven, so they actually *want* to see those detailed skill breakdowns and radar visualizations, but I can't give them something they can review offline or reference in their notes. I've started doing live demos during our hiring meetings, which works better than screenshots, but it means I can't send pre-reads or follow-ups with the actual data. A clean PDF export would be perfect - especially since our compliance team often needs documentation of our hiring rationale anyway.

Same issue here - I've been doing the screenshot dance for months and it's honestly embarrassing when presenting to executives. Live demos work okay but you're right about not being able to send follow-ups with the actual data, which is frustrating when decisions take time.

This hits so close to home! We've been dealing with this exact same challenge since we started using Talantly back in July. The comparison tool is genuinely fantastic for our internal evaluation process, but the sharing piece is where it falls apart.

I've had multiple situations where I'm sitting in a partner meeting trying to explain why Candidate A is stronger in technical skills while Candidate B excels in stakeholder management, and I'm literally holding up my laptop screen like some kind of medieval presentation method. Not exactly the polished experience our clients expect from a consulting firm.

The screenshot approach is particularly painful because those radar charts lose so much context when they're static. What makes them powerful is being able to hover over different competencies and see the detailed breakdowns, but that all disappears in a PDF or email attachment. I've started creating these frankly ridiculous hybrid documents where I screenshot the visual and then manually type out all the underlying data below it.

One workaround I've been experimenting with is using our screen recording tool to capture brief walkthroughs of the comparison interface, then sharing those videos with stakeholders. It's not perfect, but at least they can see the interactive elements in action. The downside is it's not great for asynchronous review - people want to be able to reference the data at their own pace.

What's particularly frustrating is that the data structure is clearly there - the platform obviously has all the information organized in a way that could easily translate to exportable formats. It feels like we're 90% of the way to a complete solution.

The shareable link idea would be huge for us. We often have hiring decisions that span multiple meetings over several days, and being able to send a view-only link that stakeholders could reference would eliminate so much back-and-forth. Right now I'm fielding follow-up questions via email because people can't go back and check specific details from the comparison.

Have you found any creative solutions for the Excel export piece specifically? Some of our more analytical partners really want to manipulate the data themselves, and manual data entry is just not sustainable at scale.

The export functionality gap is definitely a pain point we've encountered too, especially when presenting to executive leadership who expect polished documentation for compliance records. I've found myself in similar situations trying to recreate those radar visualizations in PowerPoint for board presentations - it's frustrating because the tool itself works well for our internal screening process, but the handoff to stakeholders becomes clunky. The screen recording workaround is clever, though I agree it's not ideal for the thorough review process our executives typically require.

Oh wow, I'm so glad I'm not the only one dealing with this! I've been using Talantly since August and honestly thought I was just missing something obvious. Just last week I had to present three marketing coordinator candidates to our senior partners, and I literally printed out screenshots and tried to explain the radar charts in person - felt so unprofessional compared to how sleek the actual tool is. The comparison feature itself has been a game-changer for our hiring process, but you're absolutely right about losing that interactive value when sharing. I've started scheduling quick screen-sharing calls instead of trying to export anything, but that's not always feasible with busy executives. Really hoping this gets prioritized because it's honestly the one thing holding me back from fully integrating this into our stakeholder review process!

Totally feel this pain point! I've been dealing with the exact same issue for about 2.about 4 months now - the comparison tool is fantastic for my own decision-making, but when it comes to presenting to our finance executives, I end up doing this awkward dance of trying to recreate the visual insights in PowerPoint. What's been working somewhat for me is creating a standardized template where I manually input the key metrics, but honestly it takes way longer than it should and definitely doesn't capture the full picture. A proper export feature would be huge - especially for those of us in more traditional corporate environments where executives expect polished reports rather than screen shares.

This resonates strongly with my experience in executive hiring - I've encountered similar challenges when presenting candidate comparisons to senior leadership who prefer formal documentation over screen demonstrations. The manual recreation process becomes particularly cumbersome when dealing with compliance requirements, as stakeholders need clear audit trails for hiring decisions. An export feature would indeed streamline the presentation workflow significantly, especially for those of us working in more structured corporate environments.

Oh wow, this hits home! I've been in almost the exact same situation trying to present our developer candidates to leadership. The comparison tool itself is fantastic for my own decision-making, but you're absolutely right about losing so much value when you have to recreate everything manually for stakeholders. I've found myself taking way too many screenshots and still feeling like I'm not conveying the full picture - especially those radar charts that make the skill gaps so clear at a glance.
