Every successful company relies on one thing: its people. Even with the most successful infrastructure, culture, or resources, a company is nothing without the people that are working so hard for them. Every company needs to take their recruiting measures seriously in order to make sure that their company has a constant cycle of prospective employees. SMS texting can help your company with employee recruitment.

While recruiting  may be a large scale project to take on, SMS texting simplifies recruiting by providing an easy way of signing up while requiring little to no effort. Encourage potential employees to learn about your company and receive hiring updates by signing up with your SMS program. 

Here is how you can get started with SMS recruiting today: 

1. Create an online sign up page that is directly linked to your advertisement that is broadcasting your recruiting efforts. There are numerous ways you can go about marketing this online sign up page. For example, you can include it simply in a hyperlink that users can click whenever they see it on a webpage. Or, you can even decide to use a QR code for physical advertisements. Whatever you decide upon, make sure that you are putting these different ways up everywhere you can. 
2. Automate your campaign by creating auto responses that welcome any new subscriber. This should perform two major tasks: one, it is a direct welcome to your subscriber. You can even take the time to individualize it in order to make the message feel more personal. Furthermore, you can also decide to include important information that your subscribers should know including requirements on education level, work history, and even important documents. However, you need to know what position they want to be applying for in order to continue to the next step.
3. After, you can create dedicated distribution lists depending on what your subscriber responds with in the previous step. For example, if they are interested in the IT department, have them text you back with the phrase “IT.” Once they do so, you can continue to give them IT department related information in order to ensure that they are staying engaged.
4. Communicate one on one with potential employees by answering their questions and dialoguing with them. SMS messages are beneficial because they are  more than mass texting–you are able to store messages you receive from subscribers, which are all kept in one central inbox. You can also use this time to schedule interviews which can be integrated with other applications that can help organize your schedule for you.
5. Finally, follow up with your prospective employees by providing them any information they may need after the initial interview. This can either include a welcome package if they get the job, or even a request for more documents, or even another interview.
