What the AI did

After the in-house recruiter left, the Head of Sales ran hiring herself. The AI reviews inbound applications, sources candidates, researches them and handles outreach.

The result

2–4 hours saved per day screening inbound candidates. Another 2–4 hours saved on sourcing, candidate research, and filtering. Up to a week faster reviewing inbound candidates. 2–3 team members hired per month.

Check before trusting

Lindy is itself an AI firm in a competitive tech market, so expect results to vary in other sectors.
