Wizehire Launches Jobs App in ChatGPT as Job Search Moves From Job Listings to Conversations

New integration brings local jobs into ChatGPT, helping small businesses connect with candidates earlier

Wizehire, the leading hiring platform for small and growing businesses, announced the launch of Jobs by Wizehire, a new app available in ChatGPT to help job seekers easily find and apply to local jobs through conversations.

Job search is entering a new era as the majority of candidates start their job search through conversations with Generative AI—well before they visit a job board. According to industry research by Qualtrics and Gartner, more than 60% of job seekers now use AI as part of their search—more than triple the trend from initial surveys in 2023.

Wizehire is building the missing layer of AI for hiring that helps small & growing businesses connect with the right candidates earlier and more naturally, meeting them in places like ChatGPT.

“Every generation brings a subtle, then rapid shift in how we find jobs. Classifieds gave way to job boards. Job boards gave way to aggregators. Job search is now becoming conversational,” said Sid Upadhyay, Co-founder and CEO of Wizehire. “Jobs by Wizehire helps local businesses connect with the right talent earlier in their job search.”

How candidates can find local jobs with ChatGPT 

• Connect to Wizehire: Find Wizehire in the ChatGPT app directory and click “Connect.”
  
  
• Start a Chat: Describe what you’re looking for in as much or as little detail, and let ChatGPT and Wizehire get to work. For example “Find me jobs in Houston, TX that offer benefits and career development.”
  
  
• Apply from ChatGPT: Browse the results and once you’ve found the right role, apply directly from ChatGPT by answering a few questions.

The Wizehire app for ChatGPT is live now, helping job seekers access jobs at small businesses through a more personalized approach to job search.

A growing visibility gap for small & growing businesses 

For businesses, the candidates who first adopt AI are often the talent businesses want most. They are curious, proactive, and can bring innovation to their organization.

Reaching this talent has gotten increasingly harder for small businesses, as job board results are increasingly shaped by paid ads, and less on pure relevance. This shift has made it harder for local businesses to consistently reach the right candidates.

Jobs by Wizehire aims to level the playing field for businesses by expanding their reach into AI conversations and matching candidates based on skills, experience, and their preferences. For employers already on Wizehire, there’s nothing new to configure — active roles are automatically discoverable on ChatGPT.
