WhatsApp on JourneyHub improves:

Candidate Acquisition

With over 3 billion users, WhatsApp is where your candidates already are.

With WhatsApp you can:

Share job ads instantly on a platform with a 98% open rate
Chat to your perfect candidates in real time about roles
Make applying as easy as sending a message
Use rich media like video to enhance your employer brand

It’s fast, personal, and built for today’s job seekers.

With messages typically read and replied to within just three minutes, WhatsApp drives faster engagement, boosts placement rates, shortens time-to-hire and reduces the risk of losing top talent to competitors.

Passive Candidates

The privacy and discretion that WhatsApp offers make it an ideal channel for currently employed or passive candidates who prefer to explore new opportunities confidentially.

Unlike traditional jobsite platforms, WhatsApp allows candidates to communicate directly and securely with recruiters without publicly signalling their job search. By integrating features that let candidates share their qualifications, experience, or certifications within the chat, you can streamline the screening process and build trust early on. This transparency not only helps recruiters identify strong matches faster but also reduces candidate drop-off by keeping the experience personal, private, and friction-free.

Interview Scheduling & Reminders

Tired of cancellations and no-shows?

With WhatsApp, you can schedule interviews, send reminders, and answer questions - all in one place. No need to juggle multiple platforms or landing pages. Deliver a seamless candidate experience that elevates your brand and builds long-term loyalty.

WhatsApp’s high engagement rates make it easier to build stronger connections with candidates. In fact, 80% of talent prefers direct contact with recruiters during the early stages of the hiring process. Real-time communication keeps conversations flowing, helping you attract more applicants and fill roles faster.

Referrals & Ghostings

As the go-to platform for personal communication, WhatsApp provides a natural and trusted way to encourage referrals. Whether shared organically or through incentives, job opportunities can be easily passed along in chats, expanding your talent pool and boosting applicant engagement.

Understanding why employees or candidates leave is equally important. Honest feedback, positive or negative, highlights areas for improvement and enhances the candidate experience. By tracking this feedback over time via WhatsApp, companies can identify trends, refine processes, and continuously improve service - building stronger relationships and trust with candidates while reducing the likelihood of candidate ghosting.

Candidate Feedback

Collecting quality feedback is key to improving your hiring and enhancing candidate satisfaction. With WhatsApp, surveys can be easily created and completed right within the app. In just a few taps, candidates can share their thoughts on your hiring process, providing valuable insights into what is working well, what needs improvement, and where potential bottlenecks may exist.

By leveraging this feedback, you can refine your approach to ensure that only the most suitable candidates progress to interview or placement stages. This not only saves time and reduces costs for your team but also keeps candidates informed and engaged throughout their journey.

WhatsApp: The New Standard in Candidate Communication

Let’s face it - email just isn’t cutting it anymore. Open rates are down below 20%, and responses take forever.

Today’s candidates expect instant, personal conversations and that’s where WhatsApp wins, delivering up to 5× higher engagement than email.

With WhatsApp, recruiters and jobseekers connect in real time, on a channel everyone already uses.

Messages get seen and answered within minutes not days - speeding up hiring pipelines and reducing no-shows.

In a world where speed and simplicity win, WhatsApp is the go-to channel for modern recruitment.
