When you’re ready to learn more about a candidate’s background, skills, and experience, you can strike up a conversation right in Breezy.

Hiring Managers can send emails and text messages directly to candidates, plus see their entire conversation history with the hiring team—so everyone can stay in the loop.


Email address and phone number in Breezy

Breezy hides your email address by default. But, if you integrate your Gmail or Outlook account, you’ll see your message history in both your email app and in Breezy, and candidates will see your name and email address.

Your phone number, on the other hand, is never used for text messages. Breezy will generate a unique number for each candidate. The number is linked to their profile and never expires, so they can reply to it at any time.


How to send messages to a candidate

You can access a candidate’s message history and send messages from the Email/SMS tab of their profile and from your Breezy Inbox.

To send a message, just look for the Compose Email or SMS button. When you click, you’ll be able to write an email or SMS (text message) the same way you would from your email account or phone. Plus, you can include message templates, scheduling links, and questionnaires, and even delay sending your message!

Sending an email or SMS to a candidate

Note: A candidate’s profile must include a valid email address and/or mobile phone number in order to send an email or SMS.
