TextingOnly turns job boards, job fairs, and job site signage into structured candidate screening flows. OTTO captures role type, certifications, shift preference, and availability, then delivers a structured brief before the recruiter calls.
The channels generating candidate interest (job boards, job fairs, and job site signage) connect to the same OTTO screening engine. One platform supports all entry points and candidate types.
Candidates already engage through job boards, job fairs, and job site signage. TextingOnly adds a text screening channel to each one so the first recruiter to respond wins. OTTO screens in under 3 seconds. The placement goes to whoever texts first.
When a new role opens, matched candidates can be notified before a job-board post. Aged candidates can receive a role update, while OTTO handles replies so recruiters can focus on placements.
Without adding recruiter headcount or changing your workflow, each channel becomes a screening opportunity and candidate responses become structured briefs.
Four capabilities that turn candidate interest into structured recruiter briefs.
TextingOnly adds a structured SMS screening lane to recruiting touchpoints such as job-board listings, job-fair QR codes, and job-site signage. A SmartLink in the Indeed listing or a QR at the job fair opens a pre-filled SMS. The candidate presses send. OTTO screens role type, certifications, shift preference, availability, and location. The recruiter receives a structured candidate brief before any call is made. No phone tag. No cold calls to unknown numbers that don’t get answered.
10DLC (10-Digit Long Code) registration authorizes staffing agencies to send role notifications, job-fair follow-up, and re-engagement campaigns at scale. Without 10DLC, candidate-facing messages are filtered by carriers before delivery. TextingOnly registers your agency under its brand name and documents TCPA compliance at candidate opt-in.
Yes. Candidates select their language preference at opt-in. OTTO routes them into a fully configured flow at opt-in. The full screening flow runs in Spanish and captures role type, certifications, shift preference, availability, and location. The recruiter receives the structured candidate brief in English. No bilingual staff required at first touch. This is particularly valuable for light industrial and healthcare staffing with large Spanish-speaking candidate pools.
A QR code at the job fair booth opens a pre-filled SMS opt-in. The candidate scans, Messages opens, and OTTO screens role interest, certifications, shift preference, availability, and location before the candidate leaves the booth. Follow-up fires automatically. Candidates who spoke to a recruiter but never filled out a form are in the pipeline with structured screening data already captured.
When a new role opens, TextingOnly sends an outbound SMS to candidates in your owned list whose certifications, location, and shift preferences match before posting on a job board. Reply YES triggers OTTO to re-screen current availability and start date, then fire a recruiter alert. Roles are filled from existing pipeline at zero job board cost. The fastest placements come from candidates who already screened well and just needed a matching role.
Yes. Each branch gets its own 10DLC-registered number, OTTO flow configuration, and candidate pipeline. One branch’s compliance record does not affect any other. New role alerts can be sent from individual branch numbers or a centralized agency number with local routing. Attribution reporting is available per branch and at the agency rollup level.
