Creating Live Chat Events

Recruitment Marketing Public

Employee Connections allows customers to create Live Chat events, which allow users to ask questions to Ambassadors at the company in real time. 

To create a Live Chat event, you will first want to have set up the Live Chat Template Page and candidate Live Chat Email Templates. The data that you enter into the Live Chat creation will power all of these templates to make promotion straightforward. 

Event setup

  1. From the side menu, under Recruitment Events, click Live chat.
  2. The Employee Connections Live Chats list page will appear. In the top right corner, click the Manage Live Chats in Employee Connections button to enter the Employee Connections application.

    Note:

    If a user is not set up correctly within Recruitment Marketing, they will show with a "User does not have Employee Ambassador role" tag against their name, as per the example above. This user needs to be given the Employee Ambassador role to show on the Live Chat Template Page promotion.

  • Preview Live Chat page (linkout icon): Opens the Live Chat promotional page.
