Reject an application with an optional rejection reason. Use GET /taxonomy/rejection-reasons to list available reason IDs. Set suppress_notification to skip the rejection email.
AI agents use hires_reject_application to create or update resources in 100Hires MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 100Hires MCP Server environment.
Rejecting an application modifies the state of a candidate's record reversibly—the application status changes and a notification can be controlled, but the action is not irreversible (applications could theoretically be reopened or reprocessed). This is a Write operation rather than Destructive.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Reject an application' with ability to set 'suppress_notification', indicating it modifies application state and can suppress notifications.

Register the 100Hires MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for hires_reject_application: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches 100Hires MCP Server. Nothing to install.
hires_reject_application is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the hires_reject_application rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
