Recruit - Workflow Trigger historical activity?

Recruit - Workflow Trigger historical activity?

Hello, 

I created a workflow today that would send a reminder email to applications to complete their screening portion of the application. The workflow rules are for the
-application module
-those that are still APPLIED
-2 Days after their Created At Date 
- Filtering for certain positions. 
- Email Trigger immediately. 

QUESTION: For anyone currently that is in our system that fit the criteria as APPLIED for MORE than 2 days will the email be triggered today? 

IF NOT - is there a way in recruit for me to force this email to go to them?

THANKS
