We recommend using push + in-app when you’re actively applying, and switching to email-only when on standby.

🔔 In-app alerts

Appear in your activity tab. Great for when you're actively job hunting or browsing.

‍

📱 Push notifications

Real-time updates on mobile for:

  • Interviews
  • New messages
  • Urgent hiring actions

Works best with FlyHire mobile app installed and notifications enabled.

‍

📧 Email alerts

Daily or weekly digest of:

  • New jobs
  • Application updates
  • Employer activity
    Perfect for passive job seekers.

‍

You can mix and match alert types per category in Settings → Notifications.

FAQs

What’s the difference between daily and weekly email digests?

Weekly gives a high-level view. Daily includes job suggestions and application status changes.

Can I get alerts via SMS?

Not yet — but text-based alerts are in beta for employers.

Will push work if I’m logged out?

Only if you’ve allowed background notifications and haven’t disabled them in OS settings.
