Talos is able to send SMS's directly from the system to your candidates, which can help increase the speed of your recruitment.

Some configuration is needed to be setup on Talos to add the ability to send SMS's from the system.

Please speak to your account manager if you would like to utilise this feature within Talos and they will be happy to run through this in further detail with you and raise this with our support team to setup.

You will be able to find the contact details to your account manager on Talos in the Talos Support page.

SMS Setup

To be able to setup the system to send SMS's, we will need to setup and configure an SMS account.

This account will need to have a either a phone number associated with the account (which can come at an extra cost) or an Alpha Sending Name.

For the Alpha Sending Name, this needs to be no more than 11 characters long with no spaces or special characters.

For example, Talos360 will be okay to use as this is less than 11 characters and has no spaces or special characters.

Talos 360! cannot be used as this contains a space and special character.
