How to setup duplicate candidate detection on Keka Hire?

Modified on Mon, 17 Jul, 2023 at 12:25 PM

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 Settings (1), and under Hiring select Duplicate Detection (2). You will be directed to the Duplicate Handling tab.



Here, select the Duplicate Criteria (3) based on which the system will check for a Duplicate profile. Then, update Duplicate Handling (4) settings as per your organizational 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.
