to communicate regularly with candidates during a recruitment campaign. At

Zoho
, we understand the value of your requirements and make things easier for you.


Today, we are happy to announce the launch of mass emailing in Zoho Recruit. Now you can easily
send emails 
to a custom group of candidates, informing them about current job openings, seminars, tests, etc., all in a single click. Not only that, but you can personalize the email messages as well.


This helps you reach a large number of applicants quickly and efficiently. A copy of the sent mail is

At Zoho Recruit, we understand the difficulties and challenges of recruiting. Extracting resumes manually from email attachments and transferring them into the resume database can be tiresome and time consuming. Today, we are pleased to announce a new feature “Resume Inbox”, that will make resume processing easier for you. This feature is courtesy our integration with the good folks at

Rchilli

Rchilli’s Resume Inbox parses multiple resumes automatically from your email attachments, and transfers the candidates details directly into Zoho Recruit.

Zoho Challenge – new customers and new features

| By Dhan

It has been a month since we launched Zoho Challenge 2.0 and so far we are pretty happy with the response we’ve gotten. Our original target for the service was, as you’d probably imagine, the educational sector. But one of the things we’ve learned after going live with the service is that Zoho Challenge is well suited not only for schools, but also for the commercial sectors. We are (pleasantly!) surprised by the high uptake from customers other than education, including SMB customers – who are the mainstay of Zoho’s customer base are taking to the service pretty well.

So far, we have observed that businesses use Zoho Challenge for

  1. Training and assessment needs for customers – used by training centers
  2. Conduct knowledge assessments for employees
  3. Internal training, validation and continuous improvement
  4. Recruitment self assessment
  5. Recruitment screening

Most of these scenarios are new ones that, quite honestly, we didn’t think about before.…

Our goal is to make invoicing fast, easy and painless for our customers. When we say invoicing, we include the entire process of creating, sending, tracking and managing the invoices. More often than not, tracking and following-up for payments takes a lot of time and energy than the other activities. We clearly understand this. So, here we are in line with our goal introducing a brand new feature “Automatic Payment Reminders” which we hope will definitely help reduce your pain points.

Yes, now you can automate the process of sending payment reminders to your customers. We have tried to make this feature as flexible as possible (at least that is what we think :~))

  1. You can specify when each of these reminders has to be sent.


Zoho Accounts

za.pngIn this blog we talk about different Zoho applications and their features. But at the back-end, there is one little known module that connects all Zoho Applications – Zoho Accounts

Zoho Accounts took shape when we rolled out Single Sign-on for Zoho Apps. Since then, we added quite a bit of functionality enhancing Zoho Accounts which is included across all applications (check out ‘My Account’ link on the top right in any Zoho App). It is this module that enabled Google & Yahoo! sign-ins across Zoho Apps.

Zoho Accounts let you configure your personal settings that are common across all Zoho applications. The Contacts module lets you import contacts from multiple sources including your Google & Yahoo!
