Employers using SonicHire may text applicants about their application. Applicants opt in on the application form with the checkbox below, which is optional and never pre-ticked. Only applicants who tick it are texted, with one exception: an applicant who texts the employer's number first gets a reply, and the first reply always says how to opt out.
The application form
This is how the phone field and the consent checkbox appear to an applicant. The company name and phone number are examples.

Opting out and privacy
Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP for help. After STOP, no further texts are sent from that number, except one confirmation.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
Texts are about the job application only: interview invitations, reminders, interview links, replies from the hiring team to the applicant's questions, and an automatic acknowledgement when an applicant texts in. No marketing.
Mobile numbers and SMS opt-in consent are never sold, rented or shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties, except with the text messaging service providers that deliver the messages (our SMS provider and the mobile carriers).
