Technology in recruitment promises valuable time-saving functions. The possibility to reduce the time to hire, save costs and invest in improving the overall quality of hire – is what makes recruiting technology so appealing to many hiring teams.
There are many different solutions that cater to the different stages throughout the hiring process. To make things a little easier we have rounded up some of our favourite top innovative solutions.
Time-saving recruitment tools to increase productivity:
Screening
Job applications
FiiLTER screens hundreds of jobs applicants in seconds. In order to deal with high volume recruitment, the screening software uses automation to filter through CVs in order to complete manual and repetitive tasks fast. Every single applicant is considered, leaving no room for bias or human error.
Pre-employment tests
Toggl Hire screens candidates through a skills test. The recruiting software designs questions that surround the job area to help employers determine the strongest candidates.
Interviewing

Instead of sending emails back and forth to candidates, use Calendly to arrange future interviews. The self-schedule calendar tool allows interviewees to pick a time and date for their interview slot.
AI scheduling
Paradox provides AI interview scheduling tool – ‘Olivia’. The AI assistant helps candidates schedule an interview through an automated message straight to their mobile device. Olivia instantly coordinates different schedules to suggest the best interview times.
Video
Video interviews spiked by 67% due to new COVID-19 measures. Interview tools such as Shine Interview allow candidates to complete their questions remotely. Employers design a range of pre-set interview questions which can then be answered by candidates in their own time via an app. Enabling you to review responses when you are ready.
Communication
Chatbots

Companies can utilise the chatbot to answer candidate questions about the company, job role, location and will assist them throughout the hiring journey for valuable support. Helping employers save time answering multiple different questions from lots of different job applicants.
