multi-select-and-bulk-actions	Multi-Select and Bulk Actions	Select multiple jobs with mouse or keyboard and run bulk actions like Move to Ready, Skip, or Recalculate match.	5

Multi-select lets you process many jobs at once instead of repeating the same action one-by-one.

Why this exists

When you run discovery at scale, you often need to:

• skip batches of low-priority jobs
• move a shortlist to Ready quickly
• recalculate fit scores after settings/profile changes

Bulk actions reduce repetitive clicks, keep momentum high, and make triage runs faster.

Mouse workflow

Select jobs

1. Use the checkbox on each row to include/exclude a job.
2. Use Select all filtered to select jobs currently visible in the active filtered list.
3. Check the selected count in the list header.

Run bulk actions

When one or more jobs are selected, a floating action bar appears at the bottom.

Available actions depend on selected job statuses:

• Move to Ready
• Skip selected
• Recalculate match
• Clear (clears selection)

Keyboard workflow

Use shortcuts from the Jobs page:

• x: toggle select on the currently focused job
• Esc: clear current selection
• r: in discovered, move to Ready

r behavior with selection:

• if you have a multi-selection active, r runs the bulk Move to Ready action
• if nothing is selected, r runs move-to-ready for the single current job

Important limits and behavior

• Bulk actions are capped at 100 jobs per run.
• Select all filtered also respects the same 100-job cap.
• Selection resets when you switch tabs.
• If jobs disappear from the active filtered list, they are removed from selection automatically.
