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
AI screening saves 2 to 4 hours a day on inbound candidates.
Check before trusting
Lindy is itself an AI firm in a competitive tech market, so expect results to vary in other sectors.
