No resolution comes with a problem. The same applies to the staffing and recruitment sector too.

• The average hiring process usually takes between 30-60 days when there is no technology involved, emphasising the issues surrounding a long time to hire.
• Poor candidate experience is also common involving factors like delayed communication and outdated processes that often filter out some of the top candidates in the pool.
• HR teams are often stretched thin. So, when your company is scaling, the hiring process needs to be scaled with outsourcing or with the right technology. The lack of which leads to poor hiring outcomes.
• Delays, inefficiencies and poor-quality hires often contribute to increased recruitment costs, which in turn impacts the company.

When you are scrolling through “staffing services near me,” coming across the terminology “tech-first” is not a foreign concept now. More and more full-cycle recruitment agencies are now focused on the same.

A tech-first staffing service, as the name suggests, is a staffing company that leverages technology as its core-enabler. From sorting the candidate resumes through AI tools to automating sending emails to the shortlisted candidates, these companies don’t rely on manual interventions.

• AI-powered candidate sourcing and screening
• Automated resume parsing and database matching
• Digital assessments and video interviews
• Real-time analytics dashboards
• CRM and applicant tracking integrations
• Mobile-friendly onboarding solutions

With automation, AI and technology taking over different aspects of our workflow, here’s how Channelplay’s tech-first staffing solutions can accelerate (5x) your hiring process:

The inclusion of AI in the hiring process cuts the recruitment costs by 30% for the companies. This goes to show that the traditional hiring portals like job boards, cold calls, and emails are now a thing of the past. Not only were they reactive, they were equally time consuming.

3. Digital Assessments and Skill Testing

• Standardised candidate evaluation
• Faster test deployment and result analysis
• Better fitment for the role from day one

Roughly 67% of recruiters said that manually scheduling an interview for a candidate during the hiring process takes between 30-60 minutes. So, can you imagine doing the same for 200 candidates in the pipeline – MANUALLY?
