Thanks for Chatting – Next Steps

Hi candidate_first_name,

Thanks again for taking the time to speak about the role_name role. It was great learning more about your background.

Workflow context
When to use this workflow

Use this workflow after a recruiter speaks with a candidate and needs to acknowledge the conversation while the team continues reviewing next steps.

What this replaces

This replaces inconsistent candidate follow-up emails, repeated role details, and manual HR BCC handling.

Why teams standardize this email

Prompt follow-up keeps candidates informed and improves trust. A workflow helps recruiters send consistent updates while keeping the message personal.

What Toggles handles

The workflow prepares the operational details your team should not have to rebuild by hand.

  • Inserts the candidate follow-up email in Outlook
  • Prompts for candidate name, role name, recruiter name, and recruiter job title
  • Adds an approved next-steps subject line
  • Can BCC a configured HR address
  • Keeps the draft editable before sending
FAQ
Does Toggles move the candidate in the ATS?

No. Toggles prepares the email only. ATS updates remain in your recruiting system.


Can HR be copied or BCC'd?

Yes. This workflow includes a configured HR BCC recipient.


Can recruiters customize next-step timing?

Yes. The Outlook draft remains editable before sending.
