It's important to note that deleting a candidate in Homerun can be undone up to 7 days after deletion. Check out our article on how to recover deleted candidates to see how that works.

The difference between deleting and disqualifying candidates

If you disqualify a candidate they will be hidden from the list of candidates, but the profile is still available in your talent pool or 'Disqualified' list in the job opening. If you decide that a candidate’s profile is no longer needed, you can delete it permanently.

Deleting a candidate

  1. Via the sidebar on the left, click on a job opening under 'Your jobs' or head to the 'Jobs' page to navigate to the specific job where you want to delete a candidate from.

  2. Select 'Candidates' in the menu bar at the top.

  3. From the candidate profile, click the three dots in the taskbar in the top left corner

  4. Click 'Delete candidate'.

  5. Click 'Confirm' to permanently delete the candidate.

All done! You've now deleted this candidate.
