About this review

Marta Kunysz examines Recruso, temp recruitment software, and its new WhatsApp integration for filling temporary shifts. The feature lets recruiters bulk-send WhatsApp messages to suitable workers directly from the booking board, with filters for induction status, skills and other criteria, whilst maintaining human control over who receives messages. Workers respond through WhatsApp to confirm availability, and the booking board updates automatically.

Marta explores how the integration streamlines shift management across multiple client sites without spreadsheets or manual phone number handling. She raises practical questions about managing multiple positive responses and maintaining brand tone, concluding that Recruso's WhatsApp integration complements existing recruitment workflows rather than replacing recruiters, making their day-to-day work genuinely easier.
