Why to use SMS in HR?
Today the importance of human resources has been
recognized in companies therefore more attention is focused on this
area. HR departments have to process large numbers of applications
if there are job vacancies but usually there are lots of administrative
work anyway. Applicants often claim that HR advisers do not reply to
their applications or they are not informed in time about rejections
or even about interview dates. In most of the cases the reason is that
there is no time and energy in HR departments to inform everyone.
Though these overloads may result in missing talented applicants and
ruin the company's reputation.
To relieve the workload of HR department and ensure the efficiency
of recruitment, introduce SMS technology in your IT system. Therefore
you will be able to use SMS services as a method to communicate with
applicants applying for the numerous jobs. In this way, HR advisers can
converse directly with people via SMS messages making a more fluent and
two-way communication possible in real time. You just need to provide a
code below your job advertisement where people can send an SMS to apply.
After this, the whole communication process can be maintained via SMS:
inform applicants if they are selected or not, notify them about the
date of interview, alert them if there is something missing from their
application, remind them about dates, etc. Finally, you just need to meet
the selected applicants on the interview. This solution allows a time and
cost efficient method for recruitment that is a real help for HR
departments. Furthermore, SMS solutions
can be used on other fields in your company.

network with a GSM modem attached to
the computer with a data cable; or it connects directly to the SMS
center of the mobile service provider over the Internet
(IP SMS connections). Please note that
we recommend you to start with GSM modem connection as it is more secure
and reliable than IP SMS connection. If you wish to increase capacity
you can attach more than one GSM modem or you can still switch to IP
SMS connection.
