@-mentioning a user in a note
Notes are added directly to a candidate’s profile. Once you have selected an opportunity, you can add a note by typing into the field at the top of the profile editor. To @-mention another Lever user, type the "@" symbol followed by the user's name. A small pop-over will appear, from which you can select the user you wish to mention.
Proceed to type your note as you normally would, and click the Add Note button.

Keep in mind that notes appear holistically on a candidate’s profile. This means that if a candidate has more than one opportunity in Lever, notes from all opportunities will be listed in the story on the candidate’s profile in reverse chronological order. |
How notes appear to @-mentioned users
The @-mentioned user will receive a notification in Lever which they can access by clicking the bell icon next to their avatar.
The @-mentioned user will also receive an email with note. If the @-mentioned user replies to the email, their response will be added as a comment on the note. From the email, the @-mentioned user can also click to open the candidate's profile in Lever.
@-mentions in secret notes
Notes can be marked as secret by clicking the lock icon beneath the text field.
When a note is marked as secret, only those with the necessary Sensitive Information Privileges will be able to see it. However, users that are @-mentioned in a note will be able to see that note regardless of if they have the necessary Sensitive Information Privileges.
