Resolution
Prerequisites:
- Enable DCPS 2.0 in provisioning (KBA 2341240 - DPCS 2.0 - how to enable version 2.0 of Data Privacy Consent Statement and how to set up privacy statement - Recruiting Management)
- Enable Delete On Demand By Admin for the related status set on the pipeline.
Ensure that the prerequisites are enabled.
- Go into the Admin Center > Delete Candidate
2. Find candidate by their name
- Select the candidate's name.
- Click Delete.
Note: By using the Delete Candidate feature, Candidate Profile / Application and Offer Detail data is not permanently purged, but anonymized.
There is currently no way to Mass Delete Candidates. The Delete Candidate feature only allows a single candidate to be deleted at once. This is a product limitation.
