Once you move a candidate past the Review stage, you should manage the remainder of their recruitment from your Workday inbox. See Concept: Recruiting Process to learn more about the recruiting workflow and each step in it.  \nDecline  \nWhen you choose Decline, you must first select a reason (see Overview: Job Candidate Decline Reasons here) . Once you’ve chosen a reason, the selected candidate(s) will automatically receive the generic CCA job rejection email. Click here to review the content of the generic decline email that is sent to candidates.  \nWhen you manually decline a candidate at a certain step, the notification is sent out at 12:01am the next day. Candidates in the Review stage will also receive a decline notification three days after you move a candidate into the Ready for Hire stage.  \nSend Message  \nYou can send a customized email to candidates from a job requisition by selecting candidate names and clicking the Send Message button. Sending a custom message has no effect on the recipient’s stage in recruitment.  \nAdvance, Decline, or Message Candidates from a Job Requisition  \n1) Go to an open/unfilled job requisition. You can find them from the Recruiting worklet or by running the My Open Job Requisitions report.  \n2) Click the Candidates tab to see the list of applicants.  \n● View candidates in a specific recruitment stage by clicking the step label above the applicant list (e.g. , Review or Screen) .  \n3) Use the checkbox in the leftmost table column to select a candidate.  \n● The topmost checkbox will select all active candidates, regardless of any filters applied.  \n4) Choose one of the enabled actions at the bottom of the screen:  \n● Move Forward-Advances the candidates to the next stage of recruiting. Only perform this action for candidates in the Review stage. After, you’ll need to manage the Recruiting Workflow from your inbox.  \n● Decline-Sends selected candidates a generic email message.  \n● Send Message-Craft and send a custom email message to selected candidates.  \nAdvance or Decline Candidates from Your Inbox  \nFor any candidate you advance past the Review stage, you’ll receive a Workday inbox task for candidates at each stage of the recruiting process. These inbox items include Move Forward and Decline buttons to advance or decline candidates accordingly.","cbCailpa02D8FJMz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailpa02D8FJMz","pdf",122552,"English","# Candidate Actions and Message Types\n## Move Forward\n## Decline\n## Send Message\n# Advance, Decline, or Message Candidates from a Job Requisition\n## Step-by-step process\n# Advance or Decline Candidates from Your Inbox","[{\"question\":\"How can HR move a candidate forward in the recruiting workflow?\",\"answer\":\"Use the Move Forward button to advance candidates from the Review stage to the Screen stage.
