Bulk Messaging Recruits and Candidates

Recruiters and hiring managers can use bulk messaging capabilities to:

Create targeted recruitment lists based on past applicants
Personalize outreach via text messaging and email, based on candidate communication preferences
Drive candidate engagement and new applicants to current openings

To send messages on the Candidates page, you must have message templates built in the Recruit Messages section. It is important to have both an emailed and text version of the message template.

To create messages targeting recruits:

Go to Manage System.
Go to Message Templates.
Go to Recruit Messages.
Click +New to create your template.

You'll see that there's a section for the email template and for the SMS template. Recruiting messages will go to the recipient based on the send option you select for the message.

5. Create the template. Once complete, click Submit.

6. Once the template is created, find the candidates you want to message by going to Recruitment → Candidates.

7. Click Advanced Filters to start filtering the list.

9. Select your desired filters and click Submit.

10. The candidates list will filter. Click on the checkbox to select all or select individually.

11. Scroll to the Bulk Actions at the bottom of the page, select Message to Recruits and click Go.

12. Choose your template from the Template dropdown. Edit the template as needed.

Select how you want to send your message. A radio button selection gives you four different options:

Send only an email to all of the <total number of> selected candidates
Send only a text message to the <#> candidates who have opted in, and NO communication to the remaining <#> candidates
Send a text message to the <#> candidates who have opted in and an email to the remaining <#> candidates
Send an email to all <total number of> selected candidates and in addition a text message to the <#> candidates who have opted in

Click Submit to complete.
