Bulk Email Wizard
This wizard guides you step by step through the simple yet powerful process of bulk emailing.
Step 1: User information and Mail service
This step confirms your user and email settings used when bulk emailing the selected candidates. Verify that the information is correct and click Next.
- To change your name or email address, cancel the wizard and click Settings on the main toolbar, select the User Information tab and make the desired changes.
- To change your mail server information, cancel the wizard and click Settings on the main toolbar, select the Connection Information tab and make the desired changes.
- To bypass this step in future bulk emails, clear the check box labeled "Display mail settings when using mail wizards."

To re-enable the "User information and Mail service step of the wizard, click Settings on the main toolbar, select the Preferences tab and check the "Display mail settings" check box. |
Step 2: Recipient list
This step allows you to select which candidate or group of candidates will receive this bulk email. This is done in a couple of different ways:
- Select candidates individually by checking the boxes next to their name.
- Enabling or disabling filters in order to exclude or include candidates from the following sources:
- Hotlist
- Worklist
- None
- New
- Previously bulkmailed
To enable a filter, or exclude a candidate list, check the box next to the list you want to exclude. Note: When sending bulkmail from a Hotlist, Worklist or Quick Search Query, you can only exclude recipients that have been previously bulk mailed when using the filter.

ISP's can be very sensitive about their customers sending spam (unsolicited email); therefore, it is advisable to check with your ISP to see if it is acceptable to send large quantities of email. Some ISPs - when sensing you are sending spam - may disable your account. |
Step 3: Message
- Type your subject into the subject field.
- Type and/or import your email message into the text field. Imported text will appear as the body of your email, not as attachments. You can import the following types of files:
- Text File (*.txt)
- HTML File (*htm, *.html)
- Rich Text Format (*.rtf)
- Word Document (*.doc)
- The Insert Job Description button allows you to insert the job description if the candidate list is linked to a job and you have previously entered a description for the job.
- When you have completed your message, click Send.
