Every Greenhouse Recruiting user account has at least one associated email address that is used for logging into the system and for email communication. This article will cover how a Greenhouse Recruiting user can add or update the email address(es) associated with their account.
Primary vs. secondary email addresses
For any given Greenhouse Recruiting user account, you can have a Primary and Secondary email address. Both types of emails can be used to sign into Greenhouse Recruiting.
However, only the Primary email address will receive Greenhouse Recruiting emails (such as notifications, reminders, and interview kits).
Secondary email addresses are helpful if you want to select different email addresses in the From field when sending emails from Greenhouse Recruiting.
