The role of a recruiter is so much more than just tracking the right candidate down on LinkedIn. As their candidate advances through the interview process, they’re often tapped to play the role of confidante (“how did you feel the interview went?”), advisor (“try to keep your answers short and to the point”) and cheerleader (“you got this!”).

But between the time that a candidate clinches the role and when they finally start, it’s easy for recruiters to lose track—as well as lose touch—with the candidate they once guided.

With this Recipe, you’ll be able to keep tabs on your candidate’s first day and offer them a warm welcome to the team. On a new hire’s first day, Rippling will automatically send a notification to their recruiter, to let them know their candidate is officially on the job.

Prefer a notification at the end of their first week instead? As with all our workflow Recipes, you can customize this template to your exact needs, including when it should trigger, what the action should be, who it should go to and more.
