How to Implement a 6-Month Locking Period for Job Applications

Summary:

Hi Team,

Our client has outlined a specific requirement regarding the job application process. They would like to enforce a 6-month validity period for each candidate's application. Below are the key details of the requirement:

1. Restriction Period: If a candidate’s application is rejected, or withdrawn, or if the same applicant is referred again, they should not be able to apply for any job for a period of 6 months from the date of the initial application.
2. Validation Scope: The validation should ensure that any attempt to reapply within this 6-month period is blocked, regardless of the method of application (direct application, referral, etc.).
