Troubleshooting: Notification emails

If you're not receiving certain emails from CareerPlug, try these options to resolve the issue:

Check your email client's spam folder

Check to see if if CareerPlug emails are being sent to your Spam folder. If Gmail keeps sending messages from CareerPlug to the Spam folder, you can make it stop by explicitly telling Gmail that the email is safe, which will allow it through the spam filter. Here's how to do that.

Check with your IT department

It may be necessary for your company to "whitelist" CareerPlug to ensure that you receive all emails from us.

Check your default notification settings

Navigate to your My Profile page.

Scroll down to the Notifications section of the Profile Settings page, and you can toggle on or off:

  • All applicant notifications
  • Notifications for every new applicant you receive (or receive a Daily Digest)
  • Notifications for every new Fast Track applicant you receive
  • Notifications when applicants complete tasks
  • Updates when existing applicants move into various workflow steps

Check a specific job's notification settings

If the missing notifications are in regards to a specific job or job(s), find one of those jobs on the Jobs page and click the Edit button to edit it.

As you are editing the job, click the Hiring Settings tab at the top of the page. At the bottom of that page, you'll see the Team and Notifications section. Ensure that your name is listed here. If it is not, start typing your name and add it here. Click the Configure Notifications button and scroll to find your user record. Click the carat to expand your notifications settings. Ensure they are correct, then click Apply.

Click Update Job Post at the bottom of the page. If your notification settings for this job were incorrect, try checking another job and seeing if that is also the case.

Consider applying your default notification settings to all existing jobs

You can do this by navigating to My Profile, then your Settings tab, and clicking the Edit button in the top-right corner of the page. Scroll down to the Notifications section of the Profile Settings drawer, and under Job Notifications, click the Apply these settings to existing jobs checkbox. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page to update your jobs.

Your default notification settings are those accessed in Step 3, from the Team page.

If you're still not receiving the emails that you should, there are a number of ways you can manage your notification settings.

Or, you can always click the Contact button at the top of this page to contact our Support Team, and we can further troubleshoot the issue.
