Sense Messaging is a valuable tool for recruiters looking to improve candidate engagement and streamline communication processes. Its automation and two-way SMS capabilities offer a fast and effective way to reach candidates and clients, particularly in a high-volume environment. The integration with Erecruit further enhances workflow efficiency, making it a great solution for staffing agencies looking to enhance their messaging strategy.

Pros

Ability to schedule and send mass texts to employees. Integrates with Erecruit.

Cons

Limited to SMS, so recruiters relying heavily on other communication channels (like email or social media) may need to use additional platforms.

My overall experience with Sense is positive. It was very easy to communicate with clients.

Pros

The best part about sense was how quickly I was able to pull up information about previous conversations.

Cons

The thing I liked least about Sense was that it was unavailable for us for long periods of time. Only on two occasions but it did hinder my teams work.

We initially had some good experience with Sense, but the last 1-2 years it's continued to go downhill. I think there is definitely a need for an automation tool in this industry but Sense is not it. Their user interface has declined with recent upgrades and their support team are not knowledgeable. The product is too difficult to use.

Pros

I liked the amount of customization that was available, however it's because of all the customization that the tool ultimately becomes unusable.

Cons

It's too difficult for 90% of our company to use. Sense has to do most of the work, but about a year ago they changed out their customer service team to folks who are junior and no knowledgeable which makes creating any new content very challenging unless you have an expert developer on your team.

Reasons for choosing Sense

I would not

Every department in our company is benefiting from the use of the Sense Software. Operations uses it for important reminders, holiday schedules, timecard reminders. Human Resources sent out important messages for field workers such as breaks and lunch reminders as well as messages for heat stroke illness awareness during the summer. Recruiting team uses the software for onboarding, communication, and dispatching the field employees.

Pros

The most effective feature are the templates for the recruiting team and our operations team. We use it to move along candidates in the hiring process. The next step is to use Sense for dispatching and tracking notes into our database. Operations team uses Sense for important messages for communication with field workers as well as weekly reminders on timecards.

Cons

The Con was the setup process of getting "Sense" to work the way we wanted. It was a necessary evil that we had to get good information setup first for it to work properly. Now that we got past the templates and auto messages the software saves tons of time.

Reasons for choosing Sense

We left TextUs to move to Sense. There were no other texting software considered at the time.

The upfront work may seem daunting, but the time we are saving once the touchpoints have been put in place is amazing. We now have automated emails/texts sent out when someone is going to start an assignment or is scheduled for an interview, etc. Things are not slipping through the cracks and our process is much more streamlined.

Pros

This tool is really good for mass Bullhorn data clean up as well as sending out automated touchpoints to clients and candidates.

Cons

The software is on the newer side, so there are features that are still being developed. The good thing is that the implementation team is very willing to work with their customers to implement new ideas that they may not have originally thought of.

Very good. The sales/support team has always been responsive and the product works well.

Pros

I like that it takes the guess work and manual processes away from my recruiting/sales staff. I don't have to have our staff is keeping in touch with our consultants out in the field for minor items like timesheets or even more important items like contracts that are winding down or being extended. Sense had been very helpful in ensuring things that were previously "ad hoc" and sometimes missed...are now taken care of. We have only been using the software so far for current consultants but are looking forward to expanding our use of the platform to candidate engagement as well.

Cons

I would not say that there are any negatives at this point. The setup is pretty daunting...but that is because Sense covers so many interactions. I think if you spend the time to understand the various "journeys" on the front-end though, you will get the full ROI of the investment.

In my Industry, I am cold calling and emailing Physicians all day. The response rate prior to using Sense was less than 1%. Doctors seem to be too busy to look at their email or listen to voicemails. However, texting has been extremely successful. They not only respond, they will engage in conversation with me. And the ability to Broadcast many texts at once makes my job more streamlined and efficient as well. My response rate has increased to around 15%.

Pros

My response rate has increased dramatically!

Cons

No cons at all. Everything about this software is a pro!
