When the COVID-19 virus hit, our small team of thirteen recruiters found themselves in a difficult situation. We were fielding more and more requests from clients who needed qualified candidates on staff, but we didn’t have enough to go around! In addition to that challenge, unemployment was skyrocketing. Many of our clients provide meaningful work opportunities for people when they need it most by hiring them as soon as possible.

There is a shortage of job applicants during this difficult period. We found that partnering closely with local colleges’ career services departments has been instrumental in helping us find new employees. We can provide our interns or other students valuable experience before they graduate college- all while continuing their education!

It was not just the team leaders and customer service representatives who felt uncertain about their place in the company. I knew that it was time for my crew and me at AI4Recruiters to reach out externally and find support in scaling up their operations so they could meet our needs quickly when needed most. The frustration of hearing “no” for an answer from potential investors felt like a never-ending cycle, but it had to stop somewhere before we would be circling back on ourselves without any growth at all.
When our company decided to switch over from the outdated analog system, we needed a new technology that would handle high volumes of placement requests and be cost-effective.

We went live with AI4Recruiters – in just nine days.

It was a scramble to get our recruiting process in place for when the company opened its doors, and it’s all thanks to the team at AI4Recruiters that we made it happen so quickly!
Just three weeks after launching our company’s new process, we’ve been able to find 97% of roles using AI4Recruiters tools. This means that the time it takes for an applicant will turn into a hire has decreased from 18 days down to only 3-4 days! We know this is thanks largely to how far ahead applicants can see what their potential next role would be like and all the details associated with it before applying.

We want you to find success. Success starts from the first time a candidate is acknowledged for their interest in our company because we know that being noticed can make all of the difference right now- even if it’s just an email acknowledgment. And by automating interviews with SmartRecruiters, it’s easier than ever before!

We understand how important getting started on your career journey has been recently. So we strive to create an environment where people are recognized for their hard work at every opportunity possible – starting back when they applied. We achieve this through automation available on Smart Recruiter’s platform; whether interviewing or receiving feedback about individual stages of the interview process automatically makes things much more efficient!

To keep up with demand for our team, we need more people.

As a result of the increased communication between applicants and our HR team, we have had an overwhelming number of interested candidates.

With AI4Recruiters that went live across three sites for recruiting purposes, we collaborated more effectively with hiring managers than ever before- because now one operational manager per site is delegated to working hand and glove with our team assessing candidates using Smartrecruiters’ system. This allows hiring managers simplicity when acting quickly on applications by having tagging/commenting within an easy document interface where all steps can be followed easily and fair interviewing practices – after all, every candidate has a chance at being chosen! Candidates are getting tangible feedback which gives them a level of confidence and trust in how they’re progressing through the interview process, making it fairer than ever before.
