Bulk Candidate Selection and Actions

Bulk select and manage candidate applications with bulk actions

Bulk Actions allows recruiters to select and perform actions on multiple candidates at once, helping teams manage applications more efficiently across jobs and stages.


Select candidates in bulk

You can select candidates across multiple pages within the candidate list.

To select candidates:

  1. Select all candidates on the current page.

  2. At the bottom of the list, click Select all applicants to include candidates across all pages.

  3. Continue refining your selection as needed.

You can also:

  • Deselect individual candidates.

  • Deselect all candidates on a specific page.

  • Clear your entire selection.

Once candidates are selected, available bulk actions will appear in the top-right corner of the page.


Available bulk actions

Depending on the candidates selected, you may be able to perform the following actions:

  • Bulk Candidate Review

  • Send Self-Scheduling Links

  • Send Emails

  • Move Stage

  • Reject Candidates

Some actions are only available when the selected candidates meet specific criteria. This criteria is specified in each of the sections below, as well as in-app when hovering over the disabled actions.


Move candidates between stages

  1. Go to Candidates

  2. Utilise the Add/Remove filter and Open Filters features to narrow the view down to the candidates you wish to locate

  3. Set your filters as desired and select the candidates you wish to move

  4. Click Move to Stage.

  5. Choose the stage you’d like to move them to.
    ​

If candidates are selected from different jobs or stages, the Move Stage action will be disabled.


Send self-scheduling links

  1. Go to Candidates

  2. Utilise the Add/Remove filter and Open Filters features to narrow the view down to the candidates you wish to locate

  3. Set your filters as desired and select the candidates you wish to send scheduling links to

  4. Click the Scheduling icon in the top right corner

  5. Proceed with the scheduling flow.

To send self-scheduling links in bulk:

  • All selected candidates must belong to the same job.

  • All selected candidates must be in the same stage.

  • There must be an interview configured for this stage.
    ​

If the selected stage is not an interview stage, the Self-Scheduling action will remain unavailable.


Bulk Rejecting Candidates

  1. Go to Candidates

  2. Utilise the Add/Remove filter and Open Filters features to narrow the view down to the candidates you wish to locate

  3. Set your filters as desired and select the candidates you wish to reject

  4. Click on Reject candidate in the top right corner

  5. Select the Rejection Type and Rejection Reason

  6. Click on Reject to complete the action

When bulk rejecting candidates, they will not be notified unless you have an email trigger set up at the job level to send rejection emails.

Unrejecting candidates

Bulk unrejection is not supported.

To unreject a candidate:

  1. Open the candidate's profile.

  2. Navigate to their application.

  3. Select Unreject.

Candidates can also be unrejected individually through the Bulk Review workflow.

This restriction helps prevent accidental changes when managing large groups of rejected candidates.


Bulk Emailing Candidates

  1. Go to Candidates

  2. Utilise the Add/Remove filter and Open Filters features to narrow the view down to the candidates you wish to locate

  3. Set your filters as desired and select the candidates you wish to email

  4. Click on Send email in the top right corner

  5. Select the desired email template / write the email body from scratch

  6. All selected candidates will receive the email once you click Send.
