How do I 'Accept' an applicant?

Accepting an applicant will change the applicant's status to Matched and starts the screening process with an applicant. To learn more about matching with an applicant, please review this guide: What does Matched mean?

There are two ways to accept an applicant. You can either bulk accept or accept from the candidate card.
