How do I bulk accept or reject applicants?
The 'Recruit Essentials' and 'Recruit Pro' plans allow access to the bulk accept or reject applicants tool.
Upgrade by pressing 'Discover Recruit Pro' in the top right corner of your recruiting dashboard and then pressing 'Upgrade' below your plan of choice.
