RecruitAi SMS Program

What RecruitAi Is

RecruitAi is an ATS-integrated recruiting automation platform that sends recruiting-related SMS messages on behalf of staffing companies. Staffing companies use RecruitAi to automate candidate communications, including AI screening call notifications, application follow-ups, interview scheduling and reminders, and job availability updates, on behalf of the staffing company and for candidates who have applied for jobs or registered with those staffing companies.

RecruitAi does not initiate contact with individuals who have not already engaged with a staffing company through a job application, ATS registration, or recruiter intake process.

How Consent Is Collected

RecruitAi is a B2B platform. Staffing companies are the customers. Candidates are not. Staffing companies use RecruitAi to automate recruiting communications with candidates who have already provided their phone number and consent through the staffing company's own intake workflows.

There is no candidate-facing signup or opt-in form on recruitingbuddy.ai because RecruitAi does not collect candidate data directly. The consent relationship exists between the candidate and the staffing company. RecruitAi sends messages on the staffing company's behalf only after consent has been established.

Candidate consent is collected by staffing companies through the following workflows:

• Job application forms: candidates submit their phone number and consent when applying for a position
• ATS (Applicant Tracking System) registration: candidates opt in when creating a candidate profile in the staffing company's applicant tracking system
• Recruiter intake forms: candidates provide phone number and consent during a recruiter-led onboarding or intake session
• Staffing company registration forms: candidates consent when registering with a staffing agency directly
• Candidate onboarding workflows: consent is obtained as part of a structured onboarding process
• Job board application workflows: candidates apply through third-party job boards that include the staffing company's consent language

RecruitAi's Terms of Service require all staffing company clients to collect explicit SMS consent before importing candidate phone numbers into the platform. Only after that consent is established does RecruitAi act as the sending technology on behalf of the staffing company.

SMS Use Cases

RecruitAi sends the following types of recruiting-related SMS messages on behalf of staffing companies:

• AI screening call notifications: alerting candidates that an AI screening call is incoming
• Application follow-ups: confirming receipt of an application and next steps
• Interview scheduling: coordinating availability for interviews
• Interview reminders: reminding candidates of upcoming scheduled interviews
• Job availability updates: notifying candidates of new or matching job opportunities
• Candidate support communications: responding to candidate questions about the hiring process

All messages are sent in connection with an active recruiting or hiring process and are directly related to employment opportunities.

Staffing Company Compliance Requirements

RecruitAi's Terms of Service impose binding compliance obligations on all staffing company clients before any SMS campaign is activated. Staffing companies are contractually required to:

• Display explicit SMS consent language at or before the point of phone number collection on all candidate-facing forms
• Identify both the staffing company and RecruitAi (or its sending technology) as the message senders
• Disclose that message frequency varies and that message and data rates may apply
• Include STOP opt-out and HELP instructions in all consent disclosures
• Not condition employment or application consideration on providing SMS consent
• Honor opt-out requests promptly and ensure opted-out numbers are not re-imported or re-messaged

Staffing companies using the platform represent and warrant compliance with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), applicable FCC regulations, and all applicable state laws governing automated text messaging. Accounts found to be uploading candidates without prior consent are subject to immediate suspension.

The following disclosure is required to appear at the point of phone number collection and in all candidate-facing consent flows:
