Tasks are available globally, for general to-do items, and at the candidate and position level, for more specific tasks. Anyone on your Breezy account can create and assign tasks, making it easier than ever to streamline their own workflows and collaborate as a team.

You can create tasks for yourself, or for other team members, from several places in Breezy. Just look for the + (plus) icon wherever you manage your tasks.

Task Management is available to customers on all paid plans.

You can include the following details on each task:

  • Name

  • Description (optional)

  • File attachment (optional)

  • Assignee

  • Due date

The assignee will be notified via email when you create a task, and you'll be notified by email when it's completed.
