# Send Bulk Followup

`POST /v1/interviews/{interview_id}/contacts/follow-up`

Send follow-up reminders to multiple pending contacts.

Delivery runs in the background — one SEND_FOLLOWUP_EMAIL job per contact,
flagged ``manual`` so it never creates or alters the automatic reminder
chain. Dozens of Teams/Slack/email sends do not belong in a web request
(the Teams invitation send moved to a job for the same reason).
