Overview

This playbook covers how to send candidates to an External URL after they submit an application, instead of showing a Match Page or Not-a-Match Page.

→ See 516 - Assign-Post-Submission-Landing-Page for instructions on assigning Match and Not-a-Match Pages instead.

→ See 109 - Pages for full product knowledge on Post-Submission options.

4. In the Post-Submission dropdown, select External URL.

Your changes save automatically and a "Your changes have been saved" confirmation appears at the bottom of the screen.

3. Click the Page Assignment tab.
4. Under Post-Submission, select External URL in the dropdown.

Method 3 — Assign via Bulk Actions on the Positions Page

Best for: Setting the same External URL for multiple Positions at once rather than individually.

1. Navigate to the Positions Page.
2. Use the checkboxes on the left side of the table to select the Positions you want to update.
3. In the bulk actions bar that appears, click Set Pages.
4. In the Assign Pages modal, select External URL in the Post-Submission dropdown.
5. Enter the full web address in the URL text field, including https://.
6. Review the Redirect Message text field and update it as needed.
7. Leave the Landing Page dropdown blank to keep each Position's current Landing Page, or select a Landing Page to update it at the same time. → See 502 - Assign-Landing-Page
8. Click Save.

Your selected Positions now send candidates to the External URL and a "Pages have been successfully updated" confirmation appears. Click Undo in the confirmation to reverse the change.
