How to Use Sprockets With Hireology

Learn How to Put Your Sprockets Survey in Hireology Email Templates

Candidate sourcing platforms like Hireology, TalentReef, and Indeed are great solutions for finding people, but Sprockets is built specifically to make sure you hire the right ones. 

From our experience guiding our clients who utilize Hireology through their onboarding sessions, we've learned that putting the Sprockets survey link within an email or SMS template is the most effective way to implement Sprockets.

How to Deliver a Sprockets Email/SMS Template Within Hireology

Your Hireology account should now be set-up with a message template named "Sprockets [position] Survey" that you can send to applicants as they apply to your open position(s).

	Click Jobs on the top left hand side of the page.
	Click on the job you would like to access.
	Use the checkboxes on the left-hand side to select one or more applicants.
	Send applicant(s) a message Email - Press Email on the gray bar to contact the candidate. Press the downward arrow on the Template line to open the dropdown menu and select "Sprockets [position] Survey." Press send to deliver the email. SMS - Press SMS on the gray bar to create a conversation. Click Select a template to open the dropdown menu and select "Sprockets [position] Survey." Press send to deliver the message.
