Two-Way SMS Inside Zoho Recruit

An extension for Zoho Recruit that texts candidates, client contacts and accounts through your own Twilio account. Find one candidate and send a single message, or pick a shortlist and message everyone on it at once. Replies are stored in the SMS History module on the right record, so the full conversation stays readable in Recruit.

Yes. Candidates, client contacts and accounts can all be texted. Most candidate conversation already happens by text rather than email, and this keeps it on the candidate record instead of stuck on the personal phone of one recruiter.

Yes. Your own Twilio account and numbers mean Twilio bills you directly at its rates, and we never resell messages with a margin. The message records sit in your Twilio console under your name, and you can change numbers or providers whenever you choose.

Candidates, contacts and accounts. You text the person on the record, so the conversation follows the candidate or client relationship instead of a single application. Someone who applies for one role, misses out and comes back for the next still has one readable thread.

Yes. Select the records, write the message once and send. Each person on the shortlist receives it, and every send is logged on its own record. It is the fastest way to update a shortlist when a role is filled or an interview day moves.

In SMS History, as a new entry on the record that replied. There is nothing to copy over and no second inbox to watch. Because the history is part of the record, a recruiter who takes over that candidate later can read the whole exchange without chasing anyone.

No. There is no phone home capability. The extension runs inside your Zoho environment and never sends your candidate records, phone numbers or message content to us. We keep no copy and run no background dashboard, and that is the main structural difference from most alternatives.

On the Zoho platform, written in Deluge. There is no embedded third party interface, no outside web application and no separate service for your data to pass through. It all stays inside your own Zoho Recruit deployment, which is easy to explain to a client running a vendor assessment.

Yes. Dynamic text takes values from Zoho Recruit fields and adds them to the message at send time, such as a candidate name, a job title or an interview time. A message to forty shortlisted candidates still reads as though each one was written personally.

Yes. Recruiters keep their most common messages as templates and pick one instead of retyping it. Templates work with dynamic fields, so each candidate still gets their own details, which covers most interview confirmations, reminders and follow ups.

Every phone field on the record is detected, so you are not stuck with one default. Candidates often have a mobile, a home number and a work line on file, and you can choose any of them. That helps when the mobile number is stored in a custom field instead of the standard one.

Yes. Write the message now and set when it should go out. An interview reminder can go the evening before without anyone at a desk, which helps across time zones and for anything that must arrive the morning of a start date.

From the Zoho Marketplace, like any other Zoho extension. Install it into your org, enter your Twilio credentials on the setup screen, and you can text your first candidate right away. There is nothing to host, no server to set up and no package to install elsewhere.

Yes. The Zoho Marketplace listing includes a ten day free trial, so you can install it, connect Twilio and text real candidates before you commit to anything. The trial cannot be extended, so line up your Twilio credentials before you begin.
