Can I undo or remove a Candidate's application?

Here is what you need to know ⏬

Shortlisted stage to Interview stages

Once you have shortlisted a candidate, they will be linked to the job, but neither the client nor the candidate will be made aware of this.

👉 At this stage up until the interview stage, you can go into the job, select the candidate, and remove the application:

Note: The option to remove the application will no longer be available in the following scenarios:

  • A candidate was created in Vincere through a job application from a job board

  • When the application has already passed the interview stage

  2. Any Managers, Employees, and Recruiter accounts associated with the Job will be removed from TimeTemp.

  3. Any unsubmitted timesheets will be deleted.

  4. Related draft invoices will be deleted.
