# Job Alerts Emails

### When Would Subscribers Recieve the Alerts?

The alerts are configured to be sent out to the subscribers once in 24 hours when the crone job of your WordPress site executes. The plugin aggregates all the jobs published within the interval for each subscriber based on their preferred job specifications selected when they subscribed and sends them out as one email with all of them in a list-style layout.
