How to setup duplicate candidate detection on Keka Hire?

Introduction

Duplicate detection helps you avoid clutter in your hiring pipeline by flagging candidates who apply multiple times for the same job. It checks for duplicates based on identifiers like email ID or mobile number.

In Keka Hire, you can customize the rules that define a duplicate profile and control how reapplications are handled.

1. Go to the Hire tab from the left navigation menu.

2. Click Settings.

3. Under Hiring, select Duplication & Reapplication.

4. Choose the Duplicate Criteria you want to use—such as email or phone number.

5. Adjust any additional settings to match your organization’s preferences.

6. Click Save to apply your changes.
