In addition to allowing hiring managers to control the flow of the recruitment process in Mercu, candidates can also withdraw applications which have been made to exit the recruitment flow.

We do this to allow candidates to:

  1. Focus on their application efforts on a specific location they applied to;

  2. Stop receiving reminders for jobs they are no longer interested in.

They can then follow the flow to select the application for which they'd like to withdraw.
