- You can also create message templates by writing your message and then clicking on Save as Template. To make your templates more flexible, you can add variables.
Candidates receive messages directly via emails and hiring managers receive them automatically in the Factorial message board. Learn more about the message board here.
Filters in the message inbox
To find your emails using filters, go to the Message Inbox section in the Recruitment functionality and select the desired filter(s). This will help you quickly locate emails that have not yet been answered by candidates or recruiters or have not been read. Once a candidate is rejected or hired, the conversation can be archived.
