System Email Templates - sent via TBE

Summary

Mass Import

Content

Hello, 

First timer here and a question. If I mass upload, say 500, candidates or so via import using CSV file to a specific requisition... how can i ensure that when using real names and real emails, that no notification of such upload is sent to the people that I am uploading.

I see no such specific template concerning that under system templates. I have tested twice using my personal emails and do not see any notification. I am aware of the email setting and disengaging email engine option under admin> org > system & email settings; however, I am hesitant to touch that feature. is it possible to disengage, import, then engage after i am done?
