Can I withdraw an application?
Open Jobs, open the actions menu on the application, choose Withdraw application and confirm. The application stays withdrawn, but you can choose Apply again later if the job is still open, and that counts against your plan's limit. If you only need a new interview time, ask for another time instead.
Steps
- Open Jobs in the left menu. The page is titled Applications.
- On the application's row, open the actions menu and choose Withdraw application, then Withdraw to confirm.
- The application moves to the Withdrawn tab. To reapply, use Apply again in the same menu.
Good to know
- You cannot withdraw an application once you are hired, the employer closed it (Not selected), you declined the offer, or it is already withdrawn. The menu item is greyed out and says why.

Common questions
Do I get my application back if I withdraw? No. Withdrawn applications still count toward your weekly and monthly limit, and applying again counts again. See application limits.
Can I change my mind? Yes. If the job is still open, choose Apply again in the same menu.
I only want a different interview time. Ask for another time instead of withdrawing. See confirm, decline or reschedule an interview.
