Massive AI Platform

Why Use Massive’s App for PC?

If you’re juggling multiple job applications or scheduling back-to-back interviews, having Massive on your PC can really change the game. From our experience, the desktop platform offers bigger screens for reviewing candidate profiles, smoother multitasking during interviews, and better notification handling so you never miss an update. The AI job matching engine works just as powerfully here as on mobile or web, but the PC setup lets you leverage keyboard shortcuts and spread your workspace across multiple monitors.

Honestly, once you start using the app for PC, switching back to a browser tab feels slower. It’s all about boosting efficiency when you’re managing heaps of candidates or interviews.

Getting Started: What Your PC Needs

Before you dive in, it’s worth checking your system against a few essentials. Our platform runs smoothly on most modern Windows PCs, but here’s what we recommend:

• Operating System: Windows 10 or 11 (Windows 11 users will get some nice performance perks)
• RAM: Minimum 4GB, but 8GB+ is ideal if you’re handling lots of profiles or interviews simultaneously
• Internet: At least 10 Mbps for video interviews to avoid lag or connection drops
• Browser: Chrome or Edge are your best bets for full feature access and PWA installation

If you’re using dual monitors and have a quality webcam and mic, you’re already ahead of the curve for a seamless interview process.

How to Install Massive as a Desktop App

Installing the Massive app for PC mainly revolves around the Progressive Web App (PWA) method, which is quick and hassle-free. Here’s a simple step-by-step:

1. Open Chrome or Edge and go to our platform’s homepage.
2. Log in or register an account if you haven’t yet.
3. Look for the install icon in your browser’s address bar (usually a small monitor with a download arrow).
4. Click the icon and confirm the installation prompt.
5. Once installed, launch the app from your desktop or taskbar.
6. Allow notification permissions when prompted to stay updated on matches and interviews.

This approach gives you offline access to cached profiles and smoother notifications without the usual browser clutter.

Alternative Access Methods

If you prefer not to install, you can always use the app directly through your browser. Just bookmark the site and keep it handy. For users wanting a more traditional desktop feel, Electron-based wrappers can package the web app into a standalone program, though that’s a bit more advanced and not officially distributed by us.

Tuning Performance for a Smooth Experience

We’ve built Massive to be efficient, but when you’re deep into reviewing dozens of candidates or running multiple interviews, a few tweaks can help:

• Close unnecessary browser tabs and apps to free up system memory.
• Use a wired ethernet connection during interviews for stable video and audio.
• Keep your browser and system updated to avoid compatibility hiccups.
• Clear your browser cache occasionally if the app feels slow or glitchy.

These little adjustments add up, especially if you rely heavily on our AI-powered job matching and interview automation every day.

Troubleshooting Common Setup Issues

Sometimes installing or running the app can hit a snag. Here’s what usually trips people up and how to fix it quickly.

Browser Doesn’t Show Install Option

This often means your browser doesn’t support PWAs or the feature is disabled. Switching to Chrome or Edge usually solves this.

Permission Blocks

If notifications or camera access aren’t working, check your browser and Windows privacy settings. Corporate firewalls can also block some features, so talk to your IT team if needed.

App Feels Sluggish

Clearing the cache and restarting the app often clears up performance issues caused by cached data conflicts.

Advanced Features to Boost Your Workflow

If you’re using the app for PC daily, these options can take your efficiency to the next level.

Managing Multiple Accounts

For recruiters juggling multiple clients or companies, you can install separate instances of the app for each account. This keeps workflows clean and focused.

Integrations with Local Tools

Connect Massive with your calendar apps like Outlook or Google Calendar for automatic interview scheduling. Export candidate data to Excel or use Zapier for automations that fit your process.

Keyboard Shortcuts

Speed things up with these handy shortcuts:

• Ctrl+K: Quick search
• Ctrl+N: New job posting or application
• Ctrl+I: Interview scheduling
• Ctrl+D: Dashboard view
• Ctrl+P: Profile settings

Using these regularly can save you a surprising amount of time.

Integrations That Make Hiring Easier

Our platform is designed to slot right into your existing HR ecosystem, making the PC app a powerful hub for your daily tasks.

Calendar Sync

When you schedule interviews, they show up instantly in your Outlook or Google Calendar. Changes sync both ways, so you’re always on the same page with candidates and teams.

ATS and HRIS Connections

We integrate with popular ATS platforms like Workday and BambooHR, streamlining candidate flow from application to hire. The desktop app helps you manage these connections easily.

Communication Platforms

Slack, Microsoft Teams, or even Discord can receive hiring updates and notifications directly from Massive, reducing the need for manual status checks.

How to Make AI Job Matching Work for You

Massive’s AI matching is at the heart of the platform, and the PC app gives you better tools to get the most out of it.

How the Algorithm Learns

The AI looks at dozens of factors, from skills and experience to culture fit. Your feedback matters – marking matches as relevant or irrelevant helps the system improve. The desktop interface makes it easy to review and respond quickly.

Setting Match Preferences

Go beyond simple filters. Use the app’s detailed settings to specify career goals, preferred company attributes, or skill priorities. The larger screen makes tweaking these criteria much more manageable.

Tracking Match Success

The analytics dashboard shows how well matches convert to interviews or hires. Spot trends and adjust your criteria to get better results over time.
