Before You Use This Email
Why This Approach Works
Platform Setup Steps
Trigger
A current placement has a verified credential, assignment, access, or authorization expiration requiring role-appropriate action.
Segment
Permissioned candidate, client hiring contact, or authorized placement stakeholder for one current requisition or placement event.
Delay
Send after the record is reconciled and before the next dependent operational action.
Reply owner: Compliance or placement owner responsible for credential identity, issuer verification, deadline, policy source, work restriction, options, privacy, and escalation.
- Verify recipient role, client and requisition, candidate consent, version of the record, verified event, owner, privacy boundary, deadline, and dependencies.
- Send minimum necessary role-specific facts with one approval, correction, scheduling, consent, secure record, acknowledgment, or escalation action.
- Record the decision, preserve consent and version history, suppress conflicting automation, and update the ATS or placement record.
Stop conditions
- A valid decision, superseding record, withdrawal, fill, cancellation, reply, or live handling.
- Candidate, client, requisition, submission, interview, offer, screening, start, credential, or authority changes.
- Discrimination concern, accommodation request, adverse action, immigration, worker classification, dispute, legal, regulator, or human review.
Mistakes To Avoid
- Submitting a candidate without role-specific consent
Uncontrolled representation creates privacy, trust, duplicate, and fee disputes.
Use instead: Capture employer, role, profile version, terms, disclosure, and consent.
- Combining screening status with an employer decision
Provider records, employer review, pre-adverse process, and final notice are distinct.
Use instead: Maintain separate, verified states and required notices.
Sequence Placement
Use only for the verified recruiting event represented by the current record; suppress when stale, superseded, withdrawn, filled, disputed, completed, or under accommodation, adverse-action, immigration, employment, legal, regulator, or human decision control.
