Automation rules stop a job from running longer than you want. Open the job and choose Job Settings from the Job Navigation menu on the left. Changes are saved automatically, and on a live job they apply to new candidate activity immediately.

Automation Rules and Job Digest with numbered labels: 1 pause or close at a candidate count, 2 pause or close after N days live, 3 Add rule, 4 email followers, 5 Daily job digest, 6 Following
