We're adding bulk actions to the Candidate database, which will help recruiters manage multiple candidates at once and streamline the recruitment process.
You can now select multiple candidates from the database and perform bulk actions like sending emails to share new vacancies or updates, adding or removing tags to organize candidates, and assigning them to relevant job openings.
Bulk actions through the candidate database
Go to the Recruit > Candidates tab within the platform.
Use the checkboxes to select candidates, either individually or by selecting all on the current page.
After making your selection, use the bottom action bar to send emails, manage tags, or assign candidates to vacancies.
Your selection will persist as you move between pages, allowing you to compile a list of candidates from multiple pages.
Send emails now or schedule them for later
When you choose Send email, you can pick an email template or write the email from scratch. You can also use placeholders, such as the candidate's first name or the vacancy title, to personalize each email.
In the Sending options field, choose when the email should be sent:
Immediately: the email is sent right away. This is the default option.
Date & Time: the email is sent on the date and at the time you choose.
After Time Passed: the email is sent after a set number of hours, days or weeks.
For example, you can prepare an email about a new vacancy on Friday and schedule it for Monday at 9:00, so candidates receive it at the start of the week.
💡 Scheduled times use your personal time zone, which is shown below the time fields.
Manage scheduled emails
Scheduled emails appear in each candidate's profile on the Emails tab, marked as Scheduled, with the planned send date and time. Until the email is sent, you can:
select Edit to change the email or its send time;
select Cancel to delete the email so it isn't sent.
Scheduled emails are managed separately for each candidate. Editing or cancelling one doesn't affect the emails scheduled for other candidates.
⚠️ A scheduled email is still sent if the candidate is disqualified before the send time. If you no longer want it to go out, cancel it on the candidate's profile.
Use filters
Apply filters to refine your candidate pool, allowing you to perform bulk actions on the narrowed list. For instance, you can filter by the current position, like Technical Writer, and then assign those candidates to a vacancy, such as Content Writer.
