Are you looking for an original idea for your next recruitment campaign? One that will bring you the rare gem you are waiting for? What if you used recruitment SMS? In this article, Wellpack gives you 5 good reasons to get started!
1. SMS, the visibility ally of your recruitment campaign
With an opening rate much higher than that of emails, recruitment SMS ensures you great visibility in the eyes of your potential candidates. Indeed, 95% of SMS are read and receive a response within 3 minutes of receipt. In addition, emails can get lost in spam and thus never be opened. This is impossible with SMS, which will always be received by your recipients.
2. Give the image of a modern company
Using SMS to share your job offers or open days will also give your company an aura of modernity. You will have the opportunity to attract the attention of young and dynamic candidates . Indeed, many young workers flee companies disconnected from new technologies. By communicating via the tools most present in their daily lives, you therefore send back the image of an original and avant-garde company.
3. Establish a close relationship with your candidates
Another advantage of using SMS for your recruitment campaign is that you can establish a close relationship with your candidates. Less professional than emails, SMS always seem more personal . The reason? This is the channel through which your candidates are generally used to communicating with those around them. By receiving an SMS from you, they will immediately put themselves in a more relaxed and receptive position than if they opened an email . This is also the reason why your company's image will be modernized.
4. Respect your time and that of your candidates
Just because someone is applying for a job doesn't mean they're available all day. Many people are already working at another company or have other commitments. In order not to put them in a difficult position, it will be much more discreet to send a text message rather website development service than call your candidates . Not to mention the time you'll save by sending a group text message to a carefully established database.
