Creating and sending a saved reply

Recruitment MarketingPublic

A Saved Reply is a message template (email or SMS) that can be used in the Compose box when replying to a candidate. Saved replies are ideal for use in situations where the candidate’s query requires a standard and/or common response.

Creating a saved reply

  1. From the side menu, under Company, click Settings.
  2. Under Miscellaneous, click Saved replies.
  3. Click the New button.
  4. Enter a Name.
  5. From the Kind drop-down, select either Email or SMS.
  6. Optionally, you can add a Subject.
  7. Add the required text into the Content area. If Email is selected, then formatting options and merge fields will display for use.
  8. Click the Save button.
  9. To create a selection of saved replies for use with different candidate queries, as they come in, repeat steps 3 to 8.

Sending a saved reply

A saved reply can be dropped into the Compose Email editor anywhere there is the facility to respond to a candidate directly, such as the Inbox, Candidate Summary, or Candidate Full Profile

The Choose saved reply drop-down will appear only if you have created at least one saved reply. Simply select the appropriate saved reply from the list and click the Use button. If you'd like to make any changes, you can do so now, and when you're ready, click the Send Email button.

For most users, the Shared Inbox will be where saved replies become most useful. With both features at your disposal, users can send template responses quickly and easily to candidate queries sent directly to them or any other Recruitment Marketing user in their company.

  2. By default, the Mine filter is selected, displaying responses to emails sent only by you. To display candidate responses to any message sent in Recruitment Marketing, click the Shared tab.
  3. Click on the message you want to reply to.
