Putting an applicant on hold means they are shifted out of your working
queue freeing up a slot for a new applicant. You can still see them on
your main page but they are basically frozen. Yesterday I had 4
applicants on hold, two because their email bounces (so they'll probably
be there forever) and two because the slackers cannot seem to be able to
reply (unlike some of my good applicants where everything was done in 4 days
:)

I don't even bother to tell them they are on hold. I just send one email
after the inital hello one and after that put a comment on the website,
stick them in hold and wait for the automagic to work to give me a
(hopefully) more responsive applicant.
You'll get a lot of that sort of thing.
