Send bulk emails to candidates in Recruiting

Describes how to send bulk emails to multiple candidates so you can communicate with groups of candidates at the same time in Recruiting.

This article is for administrators.

You must have Administrator or Staffing user access  

Standard users must have the Allow to Bulk Message Candidates permission.

Use this step only if a Standard user needs permission to send bulk email messages. Staffing users and Administrators already have this permission by default. 

  1. Go to People > Hiring > Applicant Tracking to open the Recruiting platform.  
  2. Select Admin, then select Users. Select the user’s name.  
  3. In Additional Permissions, select Allow to Bulk Message Candidates.
