Wizehire Scout is our new AI-powered assistant, and one of its most powerful features is Recommended Action — personalized, real-time recommendations that appear right on your Dashboard to help you stay on top of your hiring.


🔍 Why Recommended Action?

Before this feature, Wizehire didn’t guide you on what to do next — making it easy to miss important steps or top candidates. Now, Scout highlights the most valuable actions for your open jobs the moment you log in.


⚙️ How It Works

When you log into Wizehire, you’ll see recommendations at the top of your Main Dashboard based on:

  • Your open job posts

  • Recent candidate activity

  • Unread messages

  • Account setup status

👉 Click any recommendation to get more context. Scout chat will open in the bottom-right to guide you through your next steps.

From the Scout chat, you can also click a candidate’s name to jump straight to their profile.

The recommendation stays visible until you complete the action.


🌍 Who Can Use This?

All Wizehire clients — no matter your plan — have access to Scout and Recommended Action.
