Ever had a job to fill but wondered what the best way was to get the message out quickly to your candidates?

describe the imageShort Message Service (SMS) text messaging is one of the fastest and most effective ways to reach your caregivers, and it yields a very high "read rate," meaning you are literally "getting the message out" to the candidates you want to place.

SMS allows your agency to reach its selected caregivers with new shifts instantly, and you can connect with them at any time of day.

Once you receive a response confirming a shift it comes directly to your email address, enabling you to make on-the-spot decisions about which caregiver to place for an open job. All of this is typically executed in a brief amount of time without either party ever having to pick up the phone and make a call.

The way it works in BlueSky:
In BlueSky, you can designate a company user to manage your SMS messages (both outgoing and incoming). Be sure the caregivers you are texting have a cell phone in your system records. Keep in mind that our system will not send a message to a home telephone number. From here, just type in your message with all relevant details, and fire it off to the group of caregivers you want to include. It's that easy!

Each caregiver will receive all of the information you enter, along with a special code and simple instructions on how to respond to the opening.

You can even go back into each caregiver's record, and a note will appear reminding you that the message was sent along with the date, time and any other relevant information.
