Configure Notification Node Expressions

You can add tokens to the subject and body of a notification node to automatically populate information, such as candidate name or job posting, into the notification.

To add an expression to a notification node's properties:

  1. Go to Workflow Administration > Workflow Designer.
  2. Select the workflow that you want to edit.
  3. Click the Diagram tab.
  4. Select the node to open the Node Properties panel.
  5. In the Message Subject or Message Body field, click Create Expression. The Create Expression dialog box opens.
  6. Enter the content as needed, and place the cursor where you want to insert a token.
  7. Expand the CandidateCommunicationData section in the side panel, and then click a token to add it to the text editor. Of the tokens listed under this heading, you can use only the following:
  8. CandidateCommunicationData section tokens

    Token

    Description

    CandidateFirstName

    The name of the internal or external candidate whose status was updated.

    CandidateLastName

    CandidateMiddleName

    HiringManagerFirstName

    The name of the hiring manager who is assigned to the job requisition that the candidate's status was updated for.

    HiringManagerLastName

    JobPostingTitle

    The name of the posting that the internal or external candidate, whose status was updated, applied to.

    Moreover, if candidates were recruiter-assigned to a job requisition (as opposed to submitting an application), this token populates the job requisition title instead of the posting title. This is because candidates who are recruiter-assigned to a requisition aren't associated with a specific posting.

    RecruiterFirstName

    The name of the recruiter who is assigned to the job requisition that the candidate's status was updated for.

    RecruiterLastName

  9. Important: All of the tokens that you can add to the subject or body of a notification are found in the CandidateCommunicationData section. Don’t use tokens from any other sections.
  10. Click X to close the dialog box.
  11. Click Save.
