About the CATS integration

Recruiting is a chase. You post jobs, collect applications, and then you spend hours emailing candidates one by one to move them through your hiring process. Every day a top candidate doesn't hear from you, they take another offer. Every response email you miss costs you the hire.

When a new candidate enters CATS or moves to a new stage, SMS can reach them instantly. A text saying 'We've reviewed your application and want to chat' gets a response within minutes, not days. Your recruiting team can also receive SMS alerts when new candidates apply, when an application moves to a new stage, or when a job status changes. This keeps the pipeline warm and moves people forward without chasing.

Adding SMS to CATS turns your hiring process into a two-way conversation. Candidates feel the momentum, and your team stays on top of every pipeline update instead of missing emails.

CATS + SMS: common questions

Can I send an SMS to a candidate when they apply for a job in CATS?

Yes. When a new candidate is added to CATS, Zapier can send an SMS with a welcome message, next steps, or a link to your careers site. This gets the conversation started immediately.

Can my hiring team get SMS alerts when candidates are added or move stages?

Yes. When a candidate enters CATS or their status changes in the pipeline, your team can get SMS alerts. This keeps hiring managers in sync without everyone checking the system constantly.

How do I set up CATS with Mobile Message?

Connect both CATS and Mobile Message to Zapier. Create Zaps with CATS triggers like 'New Candidate' or 'Pipeline Updated' and Mobile Message's Send SMS action. Set up filters if you only want alerts for certain roles.
