Setting the stage<\/h2>\n

Across Bullhorn’s customer base, hundreds of millions of data points are now automated every year \u2014 a clear sign that recruitment teams are embracing automation at scale.<\/p>\n

When it comes to recruitment automation, there are three key pillars:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Productivity <\/b>on the administrative side, like checking emails, updating fields and notes, creating tasks, etc. The goal here is to take effort away from consultants to give them valuable time back to create more opportunities for new business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Experience<\/b> is the second pillar \u2013 how can you create the best experience for your candidates and clients? It\u2019s about creating proactive engagement and good communication.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Data health<\/b> is the third and arguably most important pillar \u2013 in order to have your team to be the most productive, your data needs to be clean. With accurate data, your ATS will become a reliable source of truth and the first point of reference for your consultants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, before we dive into the automations, it\u2019s helpful to keep in mind the logic behind every automation: if <\/span>this<\/b>, then <\/span>that<\/b> \u2013 this being the trigger, that being the actions that will follow on to take in the background.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Engage inactive candidates<\/b><\/h2>\n

This automation begins with any candidate that hasn\u2019t had any submission in 24 months or no note in the past six months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
