Notification preferences

This article explains how you can manage your email notifications in JOIN to stay informed about product activity, candidate updates, and other relevant topics.

Notifications in JOIN are email-based alerts that help you and your hiring team stay up to date. All notifications from JOIN are sent via email and are designed to help you stay informed about updates and activity related to your hiring process. These include:

• Actions taken within the product (e.g. job postings, new applications)

• Updates about new features or improvements

• Guidance and offers to support your hiring journey

You can choose to receive or stop receiving these email notifications by turning them on or off in your personal settings.

Notifications are user-specific, meaning each team member can customise their own preferences.

Managing notifications

Notification settings give you full control over which updates you receive in your inbox. From candidate alerts to product news, you can customise your preferences. Be sure to review them regularly to keep your inbox relevant and your hiring process efficient.

To customise your notifications:

1. Click your profile icon in the bottom of the left menu and go to User Settings .

2. Select the Notifications tab.

3. Use the toggle switches to turn specific notifications on or off. If a toggle is switched on, you’ll receive those notifications in your email inbox. If it’s off, you won’t receive them.

4. Click Save Changes to apply your preferences.

You can also unsubscribe directly from your inbox using the unsubscribe link included in each email (when available). Some essential system emails (e.g. subscription or platform alerts) cannot be unsubscribed from.
