How to send an automatic email after a candidate apply to your job?

Do you send a reply to candidates informing them that you’ve received their application? Or are they left in the dark until a standard rejection arrived, telling them that the position has been filled by someone else?

No matter if your company struggles with large volumes of applicants, or search to find any at all, it is important that each and every candidate feels well treated. Contact, feedback, or a simple confirmation of the submitted application will influence how the candidate feels about you as a potential employer.

In turn, it may also affect your employer brand, reputation, and in the long haul if other candidates will choose to apply at your company.

Fortunately, you can automate all of this with our automation βš™οΈ
