Timing is everything when you’re hiring. Sometimes, you're not quite in sync with a candidate you're interested in. With Candidate Reminders, you can set a date for Breezy to notify you about a candidate, so you can touch base with them in the future.

Reminders are private—you can’t set reminders for other team members, and no one else will see your reminders or any messages you include.

Hiring Manager permission is required to set Candidate Reminders.

Example
You may reach out to someone who’s interested in your position, but still has six months left on a company contract. To make sure you keep them top of mind, you can set a reminder to follow up once the contract is complete.

How to set a candidate reminder

You can set a reminder from a candidate’s profile.

  1. Open the candidate’s profile

  2. Click the More menu (three dots) and select Set Reminder.

  3. Choose a timeframe from the Select a Date dropdown, or click a date on the calendar.

  4. Add a note for yourself in the Message box, if you like.

  5. Click Set Reminder.

When the time comes, you’ll receive an email notification with the reminder you set.
