Installing the Firefish Email Add Ins

With the Firefish Email Add-in you can easily send candidate and contact emails straight to Firefish from your inbox, making your admin a little bit easier. Any candidate documents and CVs uploaded will be added to candidates' records and will be searchable within a matter of minutes.

You'll just need to make sure you install the right add-in version for the email host that you use. Check out the chart below to help you to decide whether you should install the Outlook or Gmail version, then once you've decided, click on the relevant link in the Contents section to get your add-in set up.
