Application Limits Overview

Candidates may apply to the same job multiple times after being rejected or apply excessively to multiple open roles before a decision is made, resulting in lost time for recruiters who must review superfluous applications. Application Limits will allow your team to configure rules that will automatically block excessive applications. You can also opt to include a message to candidates on the application page to inform them of these limits before they apply again.
