Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it reply to candidates or reject anyone?
No. WebRun only ranks and records applicants in Notion and Trello. Every reply, invitation, and rejection is left for a human to send, so no candidate ever hears from an automation.
How does it decide who makes the shortlist?
It compares each CV against the requirements written on your own Totaljobs ad, then writes a one-line reason next to the ranking so you can check its logic and move anyone it placed wrongly.
What stops the same candidate appearing twice?
WebRun checks the Notion database before adding a row, so anyone captured on an earlier run is skipped even if they apply to a second ad.
