This article is for candidates, administrators, and staffing users.
Overview
When an applicant opts in to text messaging (texting is turned on), they receive text messages when they apply.
If they don't opt in at first, applicants can opt in later.
Administrators and staffing users can also turn off texting for applicants. This must be completed on a candidate’s record to receive a text message.
