We've made it super-easy for recruiters to text with candidates directly from Jobvite - here's how...

Note: The Keeyora chrome extension is required for you to be able to send messages. If you don't have it already then you can get it here.

Sending 1:1 text messages

To start a text conversation either click the Keeyora widget on the right-hand sidebar, or click the candidate's phone number.

If you are already texting with a candidate then Keeyora will automatically open up the Chats tab so you can continue your conversation with ease:


Sending Bulk Messages

Recruiters can send group text messages (we call them Mass Messages) to multiple candidates at once directly from a page with bulk-action functionality (ability to click multiple candidates at the same time as seen below). These messages convert to 1:1 messages when the candidate responds so they won't know they're part of a group message.

Whenever candidate list is displayed:

Step 1: Select which candidates you'd like to send a text to

Step 2: Click 'Text' button or the widget (both work!)

Step 3: Type your text and click 'Send'

The maximum amount of candidates that you can send in a Mass Message is 50. The more candidates you add to the Mass Message, the longer it will take for it to finish sending the text messages to everyone.
