How it works
A candidate is shortlisted
Hiearlly picks up every newly shortlisted applicant, so nobody waits in an inbox.
They get an invite on their channel
The assessment invite goes out on WhatsApp, email or SMS, with a link that opens on any phone.
Reminders until they finish
Follow-ups go out on the schedule your team sets and stop as soon as the candidate acts.
They book their interview
Once the test is done, candidates get a link to book their own interview slot.
Every candidate gets an answer
Hira replies to candidates' questions about the role, the test or timing, so they keep moving without waiting for a recruiter.
Two-way conversations
Candidates can reply on WhatsApp, email or SMS, and Hira answers straight away.
Follow-ups you control
Your team decides how many reminders go out and how far apart.
One candidate, every channel
Messages on WhatsApp, email, SMS and voice belong to the same candidate.
Tied to each hiring stage
Invites, reminders and booking links follow the candidate's stage automatically.
