About the Candidate black filled icon
Three head-and-shoulders figures stand side by side inside a thick circular badge; the middle person carries a check mark above their head while the two on the outside carry crosses, showing one applicant chosen and the others rejected. It communicates shortlisting, screening and approval, and suits recruitment dashboards, applicant tracking systems, HR onboarding flows, voting or election pages and audience targeting slides.
The center figure is drawn slightly taller and overlaps the others, so the selected person reads first even before the check mark registers. The enclosing ring makes it usable as a standalone badge or avatar-sized marker. It pairs with resume, interview and user-group icons; at very small sizes drop the ring and keep the three figures.
This is the solid black filled version of the candidate icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
