Updated over a week ago

The Disqualify reasons section enables you to outline the specific grounds for disqualifying candidates from a job vacancy. It is crucial to input this information to facilitate the effective rejection of candidates for a position.

Disqualification reasons for candidates can vary depending on the company's specific requirements and the nature of the position. Here are some common disqualification reasons:

  • Lack of required qualifications - the candidate does not meet the minimum education or certification requirements.

  • Insufficient experience - the candidate lacks the necessary work experience for the role.

  • Skill mismatch - the candidate does not possess the specific skills needed for the job.

  • Poor interview performance - the candidate did not perform well in the interview.

  • Didn't accept offer - candidate declined the job offer extended by the company.

  • Failed technical assessment - candidate did not pass a required technical test or assessment.

  • High salary expectations - candidate's salary expectations do not align with the budget for the position.

Create disqualify reasons

To make use of this feature, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Settings menu, access the Recruit section, and choose Disqualify reasons.

  2. Specify the particular reasons for disqualifying candidates from the job.

Please note that without adding this information to this section, it will not be possible to refuse a candidate for a job in his card.

Set up disqualify reason automations

With Disqualify reason automations, you can set up automatic rejection emails when a candidate is disqualified, providing timely feedback that enhances the candidate experience and leaves a positive impression of your company.

For example, if a candidate is disqualified, the system can send a follow-up email with the rejection reasons, create a task, generate a note to the candidate's profile, or apply a tag based on the disqualification reason, helping you maintain smooth communication and record-keeping.

To set up disqualify reason trigger automation, follow the next steps:

  1. Go to Settings and select Disqualify reasons from the menu.

  2. Choose the disqualify reason you want to automate.

  3. In the automation settings for that disqualify reason, select the actions you want the system to trigger automatically when a candidate is disqualified using that reason. You can choose from:

    • Create a task

    • Send an email to the candidate

    • Create a note

    • Add a tag

4. After selecting the actions, save your changes. Now, when a candidate is disqualified for that reason, the system will automatically trigger the preconfigured actions.
