Condition Node for Candidate Status

Workflows must include a condition node that checks whether a particular candidate status occurred. For example, if you want a workflow to send a notification to candidates only when they are declined, you must include a condition node that checks for the "Declined" status. In the example below, once the workflow reaches the condition node, it continues to the notification node only if the "Declined" status occurred:

Notification workflow that continues to the notification node only if the Declined status occurs.

While it's possible to include more than one condition node for candidate status in a single workflow, it's a best practice to include only one per workflow. For example, instead of combining the "Declined" and "New" status into one workflow, you should configure separate workflows for each status. Workflows that combine statuses can become very complex, which can lead to configuration errors.

Important: This node must always have an input connection from the start node and must always have a true and false output connection. Don't place other condition nodes, which are described later, between the start node and the candidate status condition node. See HR Event.
