The challenge
Screening and shortlisting were consuming the first and most productive part of every recruiter day. The same applications were being read and ranked by hand, with little record of why a candidate had been kept or dropped.
The approach
We paired assistance with the recruiters rather than replacing them. The system handles the first pass, keeps the reasoning attached to every decision, and presents a shortlist that a recruiter can override with one click.
- First-pass screening against the role criteria
- Reasoning recorded for every keep and drop
- Recruiter override on any recommendation
What changed
Shortlists arrive pre-read rather than pre-built. Recruiters spend their day on the conversations that decide the hire, and the process is auditable end to end.
