WhatsApp Hiring connects directly to META's Business API, giving your company automated candidate flows, full conversation history in your ATS, team-wide access, and bulk messaging — all under your company's brand.

Standard WhatsApp Business is designed for a single user on a single device with no ATS integration, no conversation history shared across a team, and no automation. The core difference is ownership and scale — Recruitera's WhatsApp Hiring is a team tool, not a personal messaging app.

Yes — your entire team accesses and manages all candidate conversations through Recruitera using a single company WhatsApp number.

Any recruiter can view conversations, take over from the bot manually, and hand it back when done. Every action is logged so the full team has visibility regardless of who handled the conversation last.

The automated bot handles all incoming messages 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — candidates receive an instant response regardless of when they apply or message in.

Your team reviews the full conversation history inside Recruitera the next morning and steps in where needed. No candidate is left waiting, and no message goes unanswered.

Yes — WhatsApp Hiring connects directly to META's Business API, which requires a META Business Portfolio. You will also need a brand new phone number that has never been registered on WhatsApp before — personal or business.

Your Recruitera account manager guides you through the complete setup process, including the META Business Portfolio creation if you don't have one yet.

WhatsApp Hiring is a $150 per month add-on to your existing Recruitera subscription, available on all plans.

WhatsApp message costs are billed separately and directly by META to your META Business account — most companies filling high-volume sales and CS roles pay under $50 per month in message costs at typical hiring volumes.
