Email summaries to save your day

A lot of back and forth happens between recruiters and candidates, and email is where important updates, preferences, and decisions are often shared. Whether you're hiring for one role or many, it's easy to lose track of the details.

With Zia email summaries, you don't have to read through long emails again. Catch up on conversations in seconds, get the context you need, and make sure no important detail is missed.

No more wrong hires 

Improve sourcing with SEEK

Every hire tells a story about what you're looking for in a candidate. Until now, that insight often stayed within your ATS.

When you enable hiring data sharing from Zoho Recruit, SEEK can better understand your hiring preferences, helping you discover more relevant candidates for future roles. You stay in control and can turn data sharing off anytime from Zoho Recruit.

Candidate summaries to hire with context 

There's a lot of invisible effort involved in getting everyone on the same page. Recruiters and hiring managers spend valuable time piecing together candidate records, interview notes, and feedback from multiple stakeholders before making a decision.

With Zia record summary and notes summary, key information is consolidated into easy-to-read summaries, helping everyone stay aligned, understand the complete picture of every candidate, and make more informed hiring decisions.

No more costly hires

Update once, stay synced with Indeed

The cost of hiring also comes from the repetitive tasks that quietly add every day. Updating candidate statuses across multiple platforms is one of them.

With Indeed Disposition Sync, candidate status updates made in Zoho Recruit are automatically synced with Indeed. Let candidates track the status of their application right from Indeed, while recruiters keep everyone informed with one less step.

Bring recruitment and invoicing together

For staffing agencies, placing candidates is only part of the job. Managing invoices, tracking payments, and keeping recruitment and finance teams aligned are just as important to running a successful business. 

With Zoho Books/ Zoho Invoice and Zoho Recruit integration, recruiters can generate and send invoices directly from job openings using predefined templates and client contact details. Once a candidate is placed, create and send an invoice in a single step without leaving Zoho Recruit.

The bottom line

Whether it's AI that understands hiring context, workflows that reduce repetitive work, or integrations that keep your business connected, every Zoho Recruit update is designed with one goal in mind: giving recruiters more time to focus on people.
