CleverConnect Candidate Relationship Management

What it is
CleverConnect Candidate Relationship Management is a paid recruitment CRM for organizing potential candidates, maintaining talent pools, and coordinating hiring work. Recruiters can centralize profiles, structure pools around recruitment processes, control access, and import candidates from LinkedIn or GitHub with contact histories, Boolean search, and filters. Nurturing campaigns use email, SMS, or WhatsApp, while automation rules update profiles from candidate and campaign activity. GDPR workflows automate consent collection, renewal, and candidate-data deletion. A dashboard combines recruitment KPIs with recommended actions and data insights. CleverConnect describes integrations with more than 100 ATS on its product page; its FAQ refers to over 50 common ATS and HRIS systems plus an Exchange iPaaS for others. AI matching is paid, usually takes two months to implement, and currently does not allow custom weighting of matching criteria. The Chrome sourcing extension requires a CRM account and internet connection. CleverConnect identifies the CRM as ISO 27001 product certified. Pricing is on request.
