How to setup duplicate candidate detection on Keka Hire?

Duplicate detection is the process of identifying and removing duplicate candidate data, ensuring they can't apply for a specific job before the cooldown period (if applicable). It involves comparing data records based on attributes like mobile numbers or email IDs. Now, let's see how we can set up duplicate detection in Keka Hire.


Navigate to Hire (1) tab from the left navigation menu and then select Settings (2), and under Hiring  select Duplication & Reapplication (3)




Here, select the Duplicate Criteria (4) based on which the system will check for a Duplicate profile. Then, update settings as per your organisational requirements. Once the required changes are done, click on Save (5) to update the settings.


The duplicate detection of profiles will be applicable when a candidate applies for the same job position multiple times.

There is no provision to restrict a candidate from appyling for multiple job positions.
