Marking Messages as Unread

Marking a candidate as Unread helps organize follow-ups and keeps your queue clear for later revisits without messaging.

Written by Charlie Fischer

What “Unread” Does

  • Adds a red unread indicator on the candidate row in your Candidates list.
    ​

  • Keeps the thread easy to find for later follow-up.
    ​

  • Does not send a message to the candidate.
    ​

Tip: Use Unread as a short-term reminder. Pair it with a Candidate Note that records your next step so teammates understand context.
​

Here we have an applicant with an unread message.
​


​

But maybe this wasn't our job, or we wanted to leave it unread for later
​


​

Going back into the candidate's message...
​


​

There's a small envelope, and if you hover over it there's an icon that says unread. Clicking that icon will make the message unread again
​


​

Going back to the candidate page, we can now see the red unread icon displayed again
