Applicant Welcome Email Customization

Applicant Welcome Email Customization

Each applicant that applies to a job posted via BerniePortal's "Recruiting" feature receives a welcome email. This email provides confirmation and peace of mind to candidates that their application has been successfully submitted. Candidates will receive the standard template shown in Point (2) below, however, this message can be customized.

To customize the welcome applicants receive:
  1. Select the “Recruiting” tab from the top navigation menu, then select the "Settings" tab from the secondary navigation menu. 
  2. Select “Email” from the left navigation menu. 

  4. The existing template will display in the messaging area. To edit, simply make the desired changes, and select "Save."
  5. All new welcome emails will reflect your changes.
