# Stay on top of your Inbox

Where your notifications land and how to sort through them.

Your Inbox collects everything Employo tells you: a new vacancy, a leave request, a candidate moving on. The number next to Inbox in the sidebar shows how many are unread.

![Switching between Unread, Absence, Approvals and Jobs in the Inbox](https://staticfiles.gleap.io/p6a3a95e907a3bff9a01364a2/HVC9lwVch3EfXNANzlpxYIJeruW7ELXvVKaqVMUOJv7iPogcjntmrAfMDc2auLkliUPDjlHuqwM.gif)

## Sort by topic

The tabs along the top group notifications by topic: **All notifications, Jobs, Assets, Calendars, Absence, Approvals** and **Archive**.

## Filter what you see

-   **Read / Unread** — what you have or have not opened yet.
    
-   **I watch** — records you follow.
    
-   **Mentions** — where someone mentioned you.
    
-   **Favorites** — notifications you starred.
    

## Clear it out

1.  Click **Mark all read** to mark everything as read.
    
2.  Or tick the box next to one or more notifications and choose **Mark read, Mark unread** or **Archive**. Archived notifications stay in the Archive tab.
    

Use **Inbox settings** at the top right to choose what you are notified about.
