The whole point

Not every candidate wants to start with a long application form.

For high-volume and blue-collar hiring, every extra step can slow the process down. Recruitera turns WhatsApp into a structured hiring channel so candidates can apply, answer screening questions and stay connected without forcing recruiters to manage thousands of conversations manually.

WhatsApp, built into hiring

From first message to screened candidate — without leaving WhatsApp behind.

Step 01 / 05

Make mass hiring easier to enter.

Give candidates a simpler way to apply through WhatsApp, especially for blue-collar, frontline and high-volume roles where lengthy application forms can create unnecessary drop-off.

Step 02 / 05

Build the conversation around the job.

Recruitera's WhatsApp Applicant Bot can follow a flow based on the specific vacancy, collecting the information and questions your team needs instead of sending every candidate through the same generic conversation.

Screen candidates while they apply.

Step 05 / 05

Keep high-volume hiring under control.

Instead of managing candidate conversations across personal phones and disconnected chats, keep WhatsApp activity tied to the candidate, job and hiring workflow inside Recruitera — even when application volume grows quickly.
