Localization
- SmartStart
- SmartRecruit
SmartRecruiters users can select a language in their Locale Preferences to localize nearly all of SmartRecruiters and the Hiring App.
Limitations
Currently, localization does not extend to:
- user-generated content such as custom job fields, interview types, screening questions, or any values that you or your users add to SmartRecruiters.
- SmartRecruiters’ Marketplace or Partner portals
- Paying for job ads or services in local currencies
Localization for users
As any type of SmartRecruiters user, you can use SmartRecruiters in one of the supported languages listed below and see most of the platform in your language, including: UI, top priority email notifications, standard fields (job, candidate, and Department/Brand/Country), hiring stages, screening questions, mobile apps, etc.
Note that if your company has teams hiring in multiple languages, you may see a mix of languages for custom content such as custom screening questions and custom emails. This is because SmartRecruiters doesn’t translate your custom content.
