Deprecated Feature Name
Email to Application Creation
Feature Description
The Email to Application Creation capability allows customers to create candidate applications by forwarding resumes to dedicated Jobvite email addresses (resume@jobvite.com or talent@jobvite.com). When a resume is sent to these addresses, Jobvite automatically creates a candidate profile from the attached resume.
Why is this Feature being deprecated?
This feature is being deprecated for several reasons:
- Very few customers are using it (less than 0.5% of Jobvite ATS users)
- It was built on outdated code, making it difficult to support and maintain
- The infrastructure costs to keep the feature running are not sustainable
Is there a specific date on which the feature needs to be deprecated?

Workarounds for Customers:
After this feature is deprecated, customers can follow one of the following workarounds to create Applications:
- Create an application through the Add Candidate option available in Jobvite Evolve ATS.
- For bulk application creation, customers can submit a Help ticket for the services team to import the application as a data project.
Future Interaction (after the feature deprecation):
- When a user sends an email to these email addresses, an undelivered email will be received by the sender
- A candidate application will not be created after this feature is deprecated
- There will be no impact on the previously created applications
