Review and act on notifications and online job offers. |
Certain actions in Talent Acquisition Manager send applicants both an email message and a notification that appears on My Job Notifications page in Candidate Gateway. On the My Job Notifications page, applicants click notifications to view details. They can also delete notifications.
The My Job Notifications page also lists any job offers that have been posted to Candidate Gateway. These appear in addition to the notifications for those offers.
If an application is withdrawn (either by the applicant or by a Talent Acquisition Manager user), any related job offers, offer notifications, and interview notifications are removed from the My Job Notifications page.
For information about the Withdraw Application action, see Withdrawing Applications
Applicants use the My Notification page (HRS_CE_NOTIFY) to review and act on notifications and online job offers.

Click the My Notifications link in the navigation bar that appears on pages throughout Candidate Gateway if the applicant is signed in.

Your automated job search <search name> has returned results |
Job search notifications appear if an applicant saves search criteria as a job agent and the Job Agent process generates results for the saved search. See Using the Job Search Agent Clicking the notification link displays the search results on the Job Search Page. |
You are scheduled for a job interview |
Interview notifications appear if a recruiter selects the Notify Applicant check box when scheduling an interview on the Interview Schedule Page. The notification is removed if the interview is subsequently cancelled. Clicking the notification link displays the Interview Details Page, where the applicant can review interview information. Note: If Talent Acquisition Manager is configured for full calendar integration with Microsoft Outlook, the system does not create Candidate Gateway notifications for interviews. |
Please add your references |
Reference request notifications appear if a recruiter clicks the Request References button on the References section of the Manage Applicant page: Applicant Data Tab. Clicking the notification link displays the Applicant References Page, where the applicant can add or modify references. |
You have a job offer: <job title and ID> |
Offer notifications appear if a recruiter posts a job offer on the Prepare Job Offer Page. If the offer is subsequently unposted, the system removes the offer notification. Clicking the notification link displays the Job Offer Page, where the applicant can review and respond to the offer. Note: Posted offers also appear the Job Offers grid on the My Notifications page. Applicants cannot delete rows from this grid, so the offer remains visible to the applicant even if the offer notification is deleted. |
You are invited to apply for a job: <job title and ID> |
Invitations to apply for a job appear if a recruiter links an applicant to a job opening that includes screening questions. The applicant's existing applications don't include answers to the questions, so the applicant is invited to reapply. Note: Even if the site is configured not to allow multiple application for a job opening, applicants are allowed to reapply in response to this invitation. Recruiters can link applicants to job openings on the Link Applicant to Job Opening Page or on the Application Details Page. Clicking the notification displays the Job Description Page, where the applicant can review the job information and click the Apply button to start an application. |
