Offer applications via WhatsApp and others
Candidates apply directly in the selected messenger: WhatsApp, Telegram or Messenger by Meta. If required, they can also upload documents such as photos, references or CVs.
Save costs
Text recruiting means that more candidates get in touch faster – and you can evaluate them more easily.
Lower application barriers
Candidates are more likely to start an application – and up to 95% of them complete it. For candidates from blue-collar sectors in particular, applying by text message is a convenient alternative to applying via traditional application forms.
Screen candidates faster
Thanks to the collected answers to the structured questions, you can compare candidates more easily and make your pre-selection more quickly.
Integrate your recruiting
The application channel is seamlessly integrated into your softgarden career site and the candidates’ responses are sent directly to the applicant tracking system. This means you have all your data in one central location.
Put questions together individually
The content and number of questions used are freely selectable.
Benefit from multilingualism
The solution can be used with all 18 languages that are stored in softgarden.
“Since we started offering WhatsApp as an application channel, we have been much more successful in recruiting. Talents prefer to apply via Messenger because everything is so straightforward. The number of applications has multiplied in a very short time.”
Head of Personnel Development and Recruiting, Schäflein AG
On par with the candidates
Present yourself as a modern employer
Do your candidates a favor: with Text Recruiting you lower application barriers and accommodate your candidates.
Make the application process more human. Applications via chat are like a personal conversation between friends or acquaintances. This increases the chance that the talent you are courting will apply to you.
Chat instead of forms
Speed up your application process
Ask exactly the questions you need answers to in the chat. This will give you a quick first impression – and you can quickly decide whether a candidate should be shortlisted.
The easier it is to apply, the more likely you are to do so. Applying via Messenger also makes life easier for candidates – which means you receive more applications faster. The data is fed directly into the applicant management system, where you can process it effortlessly.
Messengers are the recruiting trend
Use new recruiting channels
Communication behavior is changing. More and more Germans are using text messages to exchange information – such as WhatsApp or Telegram.
Use this dynamic to your advantage. With softgarden, you enable candidates to apply to you directly via text recruiting – at the touch of a button on your career page. It’s that easy.
