By default, prospects who apply through a prospect post on your job board will receive a confirmation email based on your organization's Default Candidate Auto Reply template. However, you can add a specific email template and message if you want to provide a more personalized response to candidates who apply to prospect posts.
Create a custom confirmation message for a prospect post
Navigate to the Email Templates page. (Configure > Email Templates)
Click New in the Organization-Wide Templates section.
Define the email template. See the table below for more information on specific fields.
Field | Notes/Description |
Template Name | The name of the template that will appear in dropdown menus. |
Type | The type of template. For confirmation messages, choose Thank You for Applying. |
Description | An optional field to add additional details for the template. |
From Address | The email address that will be attached to the message. |
CC | Any users who should be CC'ed on the confirmation email |
Email Subject | The subject header for the email. |
Navigate down to the email body section of the page and type or modify your message. You can use a few email tokens in this section to help make your email personalized to candidates. When you're finished, click Save.
Assign the template to a prospect post
Note: Users will need Job Admin permission levels or above and a CRM user license to configure the confirmation email settings for a prospect post.
Navigate to the Create Your Prospect Post page. (Configure > Job Boards & Posts > choose job board)
