How Do I Delete Candidate Data in Bulk? 

Important:

  • When using this tool, the deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. 
  • To ensure relevant data is not lost, you cannot use this tool to remove data that is under one year old.

To delete candidate data in bulk:

  1. In Recruiting, click Admin and then click the Privacy tab.
  2. In the Bulk Candidate Deletion section, choose the parameters and the data you want to delete.
  3. Click Delete Candidates
    Note: It is important to regularly purge candidate information that exceeds a reasonable timeframe.


How Do I Manually Change a Candidate's Privacy Settings or Export Their Data? 

  1. In Recruiting, access a candidate's record and open the Candidate Info screen.
  2. In the Privacy Tools tab, Admins and Staffing Users can edit the candidate's opt-in/opt-out status for Do Not Contact and Candidate Remarketing.
    Note: Certain laws might require companies to provide individuals with their personal information upon request. The Candidate Data Export includes all information related to a candidate, including all comments regardless of privacy settings.
