Mobile recruiting is the practice of using mobile-friendly career pages, job postings, and recruitment applications to attract and engage candidates on their smartphones and tablets. It also includes using text messaging as a communication channel throughout the hiring process, from application updates to interview scheduling. 

As today’s job seekers increasingly rely on mobile devices, meeting candidates where they are has become essential for improving application completion rates and candidate experience. Top  applicant tracking systems now offer mobile recruiting as a core feature, enabling recruiters to reach broader audiences and streamline hiring workflows.
