To receive text notifications regarding SCHEDULE, the Team Member needs to complete the following:

• Click Edit Account Information from the WorkFile.
• Click Personal Information.  Enter a Cell Phone Number.
• Click Communication Preferences.
  • There are two settings:
    • Text message notifications for HIRE to track my application status
    • Text message notifications for published and re-published schedules
  • Change the drop-down to Enabled to enable the setting.
  • Click Save. 
• You will receive a text message at the cell number listed; text ‘Yes’ to activate text messaging.
• The next time a schedule is published or edited for that Team Member, he/she will receive a text with shift information.
