2920793 - Is it possible to limit candidate applications

Symptom

Is it possible to limit the number of job applications a candidate can submit?

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

1. Access the Career Site of a company as external candidate

2. Apply to a Job

3. Now apply to one more job

Cause


Resolution

There is no limitation on the number of Jobs a candidate can apply. Once a candidate has applied to a particular job in a company, the candidate can apply to more jobs.

When the candidate gets hired into a requisition, the statuses of the other applications will move to 'Hired on Other Requisition' automatically.

Hence it is not possible to restrict the number of job applications a candidate can submit.
