# Disqualification Reasons
## Overview
When you have reviewed your application, in any stage of the hiring pipeline, and decided that he/she is not fit to be hired for that position, you can disqualify that candidate, you can disqualify candidates with the appropriate disqualification reason.
In **Hireforce**, when you disqualify an applicant, you have to choose a disqualifying reason. This is to prevent you from making mistakes as well as to provide insights into your candidate database.
## Type of disqualification reason
To make it easy to identify the reason for rejecting an applicant as well as unify information in the hiring process, **Hireforce** supports two categories of rejection reasons:
There are two types of disqualification reasons:
1 - Rejection reasons from Employer
**Rejection reasons from Employers** are typically focused on the candidate's qualifications and experience, as well as their fit for the company culture. Some common employer rejection reasons include:
* **Not qualified:** The candidate does not have the required skills or experience for the job.
* **Not a good fit:** The candidate's personality or work style is not a good match for the company culture.
* **More qualified candidates:** There were other candidates who were more qualified for the job.
* **Budget constraints:** The company does not have the budget to hire the candidate.
* **Hiring freeze:** The company has put a hold on hiring for all positions.
2 - Rejection reasons from Candidate
**Rejection reasons from Candidates** are typically focused on the company and the job itself. Some common candidate rejection reasons include:
* **Salary:** The salary offered was too low.
* **Benefits:** The benefits package was not attractive enough.
* **Job description:** The job description did not accurately reflect the job duties and responsibilities.
* **Company culture:** The candidate did not like the company culture.
