Batch email
One template, a personal message for each applicant.
An admin writes the email once, then sends it to the applicants they select. A variable such as [[first name]] is replaced with that item’s own value, so the same letter can tell someone they are shortlisted, offer a time for a 1-1 meeting, or update them on their application. Nothing goes out until you have previewed each message.
