Bulk actions in Beamery are designed to help your team move faster and be more productive. By using our filters and selecting multiple candidates, you are able to apply a bulk action to multiple contacts at once. 

Contextual Bulk Actions

It is important to note that the bulk actions available are contextual-based and vary somewhat depending on which view of the CRM you are in - People, Pools or Vacancies. For example, when viewing contacts within a Pool one of the available bulk actions in the drop-down is Remove from pool. Similarly, when viewing contacts within a Vacancy one of the bulk actions is Update vacancy stage. This is to allow you to take the most relevant actions based on the contacts currently visible in each view.
