Configuration implementation required
Workflow Automation now includes the ability to send SMS messages to candidates as an action, similar to sending emails. This allows for a new channel of communication for candidate engagement, complementing existing email capabilities. This feature enables more direct and faster outreach to candidates.

Needs addressed
There was a need to extend the communication capabilities within Workflow Automation beyond email to include SMS messaging. This feature helps in reaching candidates who may not regularly check their emails.
A recruiter can create a workflow that automatically sends an SMS notification to candidates who have progressed in the application process. This can provide timely updates and improve candidate engagement.
This feature is expected to improve candidate engagement through a more direct communication channel. It can lead to faster response times and a better overall candidate experience.
