Manual resume screening is your biggest recruitment bottleneck

A single job posting generates hundreds of applications. Recruiters spend 23 hours on average screening resumes for one hire. At staffing-company scale, this is unsustainable. Keyword-matching ATS systems miss qualified candidates who describe their experience differently and pass through candidates who keyword-stuff their resumes.
