Comments and notes (with @mentions)
Leave private internal notes on a candidate and @mention teammates to loop them in. Candidates never see these.
What it is
Comments are private, internal notes on a candidate - for your team to discuss a candidate. They're separate from messages: candidates never see comments. You can attach files and @mention teammates to notify them.
Add a comment
- Open the candidate (their detail view on the Responses page).
- In the comments area, type your note. You can attach a file.
- Post it. Your teammates with access to the form see it on the candidate; you can edit or delete your own comments.
@mention a teammate
While writing a comment, type @ and pick a teammate to mention them. The mentioned person
gets notified and is pointed to that candidate - useful for "can you take a look?" hand-offs.
You can only mention people who have access to the form (its editors).
Notes & limits
- Comments are internal only - never shown to the candidate.
- Only people with access to the form can read or add comments, and you can mention only those people.
- To message the candidate themselves, use the message thread - see Message candidates.
Bulk actions on candidates
Select multiple candidates and move them through stages, message them, or delete them in one go.
