Applicant statuses are the statuses that you define for the Applicant recruitment area, which deals with the overall availability of the applicant.
This differs from the applicant's disposition, which is the applicant's status relative to a particular job opening. The Updating an applicant status can affect the applicant’s dispositions based on your configuration for status change effects.
See Understanding Recruiting Statuses.
