AUSTIN, TEXAS — FEBRUARY 26, 2019
TextUs, a real-time communication platform, and Herefish, an automation platform built for the staffing industry, announced a new partnership today that enables recruiting firms to combine corporate-level recruiting automation with desk-level, 1:1 communication with candidates, contractors, and clients.
Ted Guggenheim, CEO of TextUs had this to say: “Now TextUs customers can leverage Herefish, which automates text messages, tasks, and email at key steps in the recruiting process, and immediately respond via TextUs to inbound conversations. It’s the best of both worlds: corporate-level automation and desk-level conversation.”
“This partnership expands the capabilities for Herefish customers,” says Jason Heilman, CEO & Co-founder of Herefish. “Our mutual customers can now engage with candidates who respond to automated texts sent from Herefish directly from their TextUs accounts. This allows for faster conversations with candidates and contractors.”
There are two big benefits for mutual Herefish and TextUs customers:
- Send automated text messages from Herefish using each recruiter’s TextUs phone number to streamline communication.
- Automate routine text messages like interview reminders, first-day follow up, and mid-assignment surveys.
Meet with Herefish and TextUs at the SIA Executive Forum in Austin, TX, on February 25-28th to learn more.
