Problem


Recruiters, do you:


  • Spend large amounts of time perusing résumés manually?
  • Have inconsistent judgement about applicants?
  • Inaccurately shortlist or reject applicants?
  • Unable to reprofile applicants to other suitable roles?

Fret not, we have a solution for you!


Original Workflow

Vetting through résumés is the most time-consuming aspect of the hiring process. On average, a recruiter spends 1.5 minutes screening a single application.
