If you clients aren't receiving job alerts, it's caused by an issue with the timing of the 2 Create and Send DBA Jobs in relation to these notifications.


Version 24 and above

We've made improvements in version 24 and above, where a new parameter sends emails immediately after notifications are created. To set this up:

  1. Click Personnel then click Recruitment.

  2. Click Recruitment parameters then click Client parameters.

  3. In Applicant Notifications, select the following option:

    • Send emails to applicants immediately after notifications have been created.


Version 23 and below

For versions 23 and below, Please raise a new case online and reference the title of this article and ensure the following details are provided:

  • A new Vacancy that has been opened since this issue was raised

  • An Applicant who is signed up for these events and who was due to get this alert

  • An example of a previous 'Jobs by Email / New Vacancy Notification' that was sent correctly from the system
