# Get daily applicant summary emails

CareerPlug offers what's called a Daily Applicant Digest email. These emails are sent overnight each night after at least one applicant applies to your open job postings.

If you turn your Daily Applicant Digest email on, you will receive a new email for each job that gets at least one applicant in the previous day. You can also choose to get a single email for each new applicant a job receives.

**Note:** Disqualified applicants are excluded from the Daily Applicant Digest and individual applicant notification emails. [Here's how to view disqualified applicants.](https://support.careerplug.com/viewing-your-disqualified-applicants?hsLang=en)

If you are an admin on your account, you will get Daily Applicant Digest emails by default for all jobs, whether you are the hiring manager or not. Think about whether you would like to get emails about all jobs or only certain jobs. Both options are covered below.

### Get a Daily Digest email for all jobs
