CASE STUDY
Financial Services client nearly doubles candidate sourcing profiles with Al recruitment technology
The challenge
Our longstanding client, a multinational investment bank, was having issues sourcing talent in a timely and efficient manner. An internal audit revealed that their recruiters were spending upwards of 50% of their day sourcing talent manually rather than focusing on high-touch and high-value activities like connecting and interacting with talent.
Our solution
We identified candidate sourcing and duplication of effort as the client’s biggest pain points, and a real opportunity for automation. We approached our client with the opportunity of Arya, the most advanced AI-sourcing product at the time. It allowed simultaneous sourcing across three channel types with an interface that claimed to learn user behaviours to improve sourcing over time. The AI-integration would reduce duplication and free up time for recruiters to focus more on value-add functions, like giving candidates a more personalised experience and connecting with hiring managers to better understand their needs.
Results
Arya users found three times as many qualified candidates vs. their counterparts sourcing manually. Arya was able to identify more meaningful connections (e.g., job titles, skills, and experience) than it could at the beginning – proving Arya’s AI-capabilities of ‘learning on-the-go’ and suggesting it can improve further and allow for genuine productivity gains.
Our controlled study proved that implementing the right AI technology can effectively analyse job descriptions, understand what a ‘good’ candidate looks like and recommend suitable matches as a result.
