The problem, and the answer

Hundreds of CVs arrive on WhatsApp as photos and files with no name and no role, the serious applicant asks "did you get my file?" three times, and the client company asks "where are the candidates?" while nobody knows where the request stands.

The applicant sends their details and CV on WhatsApp and they arrive organised, the first-screening questions (trade, experience, city, salary) are asked in conversation, and the client company asks about its request and is answered from your file — and the bot accepts no candidate and promises no contract.

Also asked as: «بوت واتساب لشركة توظيف» · «استقبال طلبات التوظيف عبر واتساب» · «أبي بوت لمكتب الاستقدام» · «بوت يفرز المتقدمين»

How it actually works

  1. Takes the application and confirms

    Asks for the name, trade, years of experience and city, then the file or photo, reads the summary back and confirms receipt with a number — so nobody asks "did it arrive?".

  2. Screens with your questions

    The questions that decide your first screening (licence, certificate, readiness to travel, expected salary) are asked one at a time, and the label you allowed is applied.

  3. Answers the client company

    Services, fees, timelines and required paperwork — from your file; a new request is collected and assigned to the account manager.

  4. Follows up on both sides

    The candidate who owes a missing document is reminded, and the company waiting on a reply is told the status as the recruiter writes it.

It answers from your files, not from general knowledge

You upload your prices, your hours and your terms, and the agent answers from them. If an answer is not in your files it says so and hands over to a person — it does not invent one. That is not an optional setting, it is how it works.

Follow-up on both sides: the client knows the status, the applicant is reminded of what’s missing

And what the bot will not do here

A limit written into its rules, not a judgement call

The bot accepts no candidate, rejects none and promises no job or salary: it collects the details, asks the screening questions you wrote and applies the label (trade, city), and the decision is the recruiter's. In manpower services it quotes no fees or timelines beyond what is written in your file.

And the number worth measuring

The number that matters is the complete application: name, trade, experience, city and an attached file, with no recruiter asking. The second: how many applicants asked "did my file arrive?" — it should reach zero because the bot confirms receipt at once.

Not only WhatsApp

The same agent answers on Instagram, Messenger, Facebook comments and TikTok, in the same inbox. The customer who commented on a post and the one who sent a message are the same person — and you see them that way.

Frequently asked

Does the bot read the CV and evaluate it?

It receives it, attaches it to the application and hands it to the recruiter, and asks the screening questions you wrote. Evaluation and ranking are the recruiter's call — the bot tells no applicant "suitable" or "rejected".

Applicants write in different dialects and sometimes in English

It understands Arabic dialects and English and replies in the language of the message. Dialects.
