Duplicate Rules

You can prevent applicants from applying more than once by choosing certain rejection reasons to automatically block. After that, you can define what happens when an identified duplicate applicant re-applies. 

  • Can apply more than once without restrictions - applicants can apply more than once to any job
  • Can apply to each Job Opening once - applicants cannot apply more than once to any Opening
  • Can NOT apply again - applicants cannot apply to any other position listed in your Public Directory if they have already submitted an application to one.
