Convert More Candidates with Smart Apply, Chatbots, and Video Job Ads

You’ve got the traffic. Now comes the real game: conversion.

Candidates are clicking, scrolling, and ghosting faster than ever not because they’re lazy, but because your process might be. Long forms. Dead-end job ads. Zero personality. That’s a quick way to lose great talent before they even start.

At Shazamme, we’ve built candidate conversion tools that meet jobseekers where they are curious, mobile, impatient and turn those fleeting clicks into serious applications.


Let’s Talk About Your Apply Button (It’s Probably Broken)

Ever seen a “quick apply” form that somehow takes 12 minutes? Or an application process that feels like a test of endurance?


Smart apply forms from Shazamme fix that. We let you:

  • Ask only the essentials (and make it mobile-friendly).
  • Pre-screen with knockout questions that qualify while you sleep.
  • Personalise the experience for different roles, teams, or regions.

No friction. No fluff. Just better fit, faster.


Your New Recruitment Wingman: AI-Powered Chat


Meet your 24/7 recruitment assistant: Shazamme’s AI recruitment chatbot.

It doesn’t just answer FAQs it engages, screens, and guides candidates through the process, instantly. Want to know if they have working rights or relevant experience? Done. Need to reroute them to a better-fit role? Too easy.

And yes, it actually sounds human (without needing a coffee break).


Video Job Ads That Actually Sell the Role



Job ads don’t have to be boring. With video job ads, you can bring your roles and culture to life.

Use video to:

  • Introduce real team members
  • Show off your workspace or WFH culture
  • Make roles more accessible and authentic

It’s not Hollywood, it’s just smart branding. And it works because people apply to people, not bullet points.


Don’t Just Post — Perform
