2.22.9+ As well as being able to manually tick candidates there are now some ways to bulk tick candidates - you can select based on number or on candidate state.

<ifauth @techinical>You can specify a number in General Setting 3200 Vacancy Search tick top X' records. If instead you would rather tick records based on the candidate state you can activate General Setting 3360 'Vacancy Search on Applicant Statusb  (wording may differ depending on the terminology used for Vacancies). By setting this to Y when searching you get the option to select the state, and then whether you want to select all, top x or all down to and including selected record. </ifauth>
