AdviserAlly for UK recruitment agencies
Capture candidates and clients in the same place, run vacancies through a clean pipeline, and keep both sides moving with AI-assisted communications.
Why UK recruitment agencies use AdviserAlly
Recruitment is a relationship game on two sides — candidates and clients. AdviserAlly gives small recruitment teams one place to manage both: a website chatbot that captures candidate registrations and client briefs, a sales-cycle pipeline per vacancy, automations that drive interview follow-ups, and SMS messaging that recruiters live and die by. The mobile app means consultants can update vacancies between meetings.
What you get
Two-sided contact capture
Forms and chatbot flows tailored for either "I'm looking for a job" or "We're hiring" — feeding into separate views of the same database.
Vacancy pipeline
Each vacancy can run its own sales cycle — Brief, Sourcing, Shortlist, Interview, Offer, Placement.
SMS-first communication
Candidates respond to SMS far better than email. Send interview confirmations, reminders and check-ins by text from inside the platform.
AI chatbot for screening
Pre-screen candidates with structured questions before a consultant invests time. The chatbot can hand off to a recruiter at any point.
Automations
Trigger interview-confirmation messages, day-of reminders, and post-interview "how did it go?" follow-ups automatically.
Calendars
Bookable calendars for first interviews and CV-feedback calls, synced to Google or Microsoft 365.
How it plays out in practice
Candidate registers on your site
The chatbot collects role, location, notice period and right-to-work, then books them into a 15-minute screening call. The record lands on your candidate pipeline with the chat transcript attached.
Client briefs a new vacancy
A different chatbot flow captures the brief — role, salary range, must-haves, nice-to-haves — and creates a vacancy in the client's record. The consultant gets a notification.
Interview tomorrow
An automation texts the candidate the address and meeting link 24 hours before, and again 2 hours before. Post-interview, both sides get a "how did it go?" message that the consultant reads in one place.

Frequently asked questions
Can I have separate views for candidates and clients?
Yes. Tag records as candidates or clients and filter pipelines accordingly. Forms and chatbot flows can be configured per side.
Are SMS messages free?
No — each plan includes a monthly SMS allowance, with paid top-ups for higher volume. SMS is sent from a shared sender ID.
Can I push placements to my accounting tool?
Yes — Xero is integrated for invoicing placements. For other accounting tools, use Zapier to bridge AdviserAlly events.
Can the chatbot ask different questions for different roles?
Yes. You can configure separate flows or train the chatbot with role-specific questions and have it branch based on the candidate's answers.
