Ability to complete bulk update Disclose/Undisclosed status for large campaigns

Ability to complete bulk update Disclose/Undisclosed status for large campaigns

What business value are you trying to achieve?
currently can only individually disclose/undisclosed an application. When we do our large campaigns we could have hundreds in an undisclosed status and need to disclose each application individually. Need to be able to bulk disclose/undisclosed applicants on a job.

    Hi John - I will give you an example - we have large campaigns where we distribute the applicants to the actual jobs they have been appointed to. Splitting those 1k Plus applicants across multiple jobs and applying them to all those requisitions takes time. we have to apply them in an Undisclosed state, then when we are ready to offer them we need to manually disclose each application.

    We can now bulk apply with copy of application form (thanks for that) and select to not disclose the application at the time - this is great. This is half the picture.

    If we do not Hide the applications then the first applicants start talking to their peers (YAY! I got a position) and the rest start getting frantic asking where is their job??

    But disclosing the application means having to crack each individual application and selection to Undisclose for everyone. and also run risk of missing one and leaving it Undisclosed

    Ability to Bulk Undisclose/ (even bulk hide) would be extremely useful

    Hi Mark - thank you so much for your feedback.

    Based on leading practices, recruiters often decide not to disclose an application with a select or high-touch prospect with whom they are still in exploratory discussions but have not yet made the decision to move through with an application. This practice makes sense for recruiters who would like to keep track of their proactive sourcing activity in connection with the job that they are working on. An excellent example would be a passive applicant who was manually added to the job requisition for an executive position after the recruiter found them through a professional network. To my knowledge, this is one of the reasons why the undisclosed / disclosed option hasn't been added to the bulk actions list due to its ad-hoc use case nature.

    Having said that, I'm extremely interested in finding out more about your use case and business reason, where you appear to have a lot of candidates in your campaign yet claim to want to keep their applications undisclosed.

    Looking forward to your response.
