  • Account members must send from the address they sign in with. Mail from other addresses is treated as a candidate application
  • Workable treats every attached file as a separate résumé, so forward the application without extra attachments
  • The mailbox only accepts résumés for active jobs, and internal or confidential jobs only accept mail from account members

Set up the Workable job mailbox

Post a sales job

Steps follow Workable's job mailbox help page, checked November 12, 2026.

  1. Find the job mailbox

    In Workable, open the job editor. The job mailbox address is in the Find Candidates section.

  2. Send applications to your Workable email

    In your employer dashboard, open the job's Application settings and put the address you sign in to Workable with in Send applications to.

  3. Forward each application

    Forward the application email to the job mailbox from that same address. Workable parses the attached résumé and adds the candidate to the Sourced stage.

  4. Check the confirmation

    Workable emails you a confirmation that highlights any errors and links to the new candidate.

Workable questions

Workable treats email from an address that isn't a Workable account member as a candidate application, and rejects it unless the job is Published. We haven't confirmed how Workable handles an application we send for a candidate, so we recommend forwarding from your Workable sign-in address.
