Streamline your hiring with our automated job monitoring solution. It tracks job statuses, sends notifications to close positions when the candidate threshold is met, and prevents late applications.

This guide will review how to configure a job closure notification within the job posting or template as a Super Admin or District Admin.

To add a job closure notification, go to "Jobs" in the header and select either "View Jobs" or "View Templates". Then edit an existing role, or create a new job or template.

While editing the job, you will see the option to add a job closure notification.

Select "Add Notification". Here, you can a notification to this job posting, which will email you a reminder to close the job when a particular threshold is met.

First, select the number of candidates you would like to reach or pass a certain status. Next, select the status you would like the notification to trigger off of.

Next, select the users that you would like to be notified, and select "Create".

Now, you will see in the edit flow that the notification has been created. You can edit or delete at any time. When the threshold is met, the users selected will receive an email prompting them to close the job posting.

FAQ

  • I just moved a candidate to a status that means I should have received a job closure notification, why haven’t I gotten an email yet?

    • Our platform will look at your job posting overnight and email you in the morning about any jobs that are ready to be closed. This means you won’t receive an immediate email once your job closure conditions are met.

  • Why don’t I see all of my statuses in the job closure notification creation window?

    • We do not include any statuses that are “archived” statuses in that window.

    • This is because we want to help you count candidates who are still actively engaged in the hiring process.

    • This also means we do not count any candidates in archived statuses when determining if the conditions of your job closure notification have been met.

  • What does “reached or passed” a status mean?

    • We count all candidates who are either in the status you specified or have made it past that point but are still engaged in the hiring process.

    • For example:

      • Let’s say you configure your job closure notification so you are notified when 2 candidates have reached or passed the status Resume Review.

      • You have one candidate in Hired (a status that comes after Resume Review) and just received a new candidate in Resume Review.

      • You will receive a job closure notification because you have 2 candidates who have reached or passed the status Resume Review, even though only one candidate is actually in Resume Review.

  • Who can create a job closure notification? Who can receive a job closure notification?

    • Only Super Admins and District Admins can create and receive a job closure notification.

    • This is because these are the only user types that can 1) edit a job posting and 2) close a job posting to new applicants.
