Creating Job Alert Email Template

Objectives

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
  • Enable job alerts.
  • Configure the Job Alert Email Template.

Enable Job Alerts

All Recruiting email templates are configured in Admin Center except for the job alert email template. Job alert emails are enabled from Career Site BuilderSite ConfigurationSite Information and are configured from CSBSite ConfigurationSite Information.

The default email address that job alerts are sent from is auto-populated. Email address example from a stage environment: customer@noreply17.stage.jobs2web.com. When exporting from stage and before importing to production, make sure this URL is updated. See this KBA for more information: https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/0003008696

When Use Locale for Job Alerts is enabled, candidates receive an email only for those jobs that match their chosen locale. See the Localize the Career Site Builder Site section for additional information.
