What is recruiting automation?

Recruiting automation describes softwares that enables you to streamline repetitive workflows, processes, and communication throughout the entire recruiting cycle, replacing tasks that would formerly be done manually.

Recruiting automation falls under two camps: Automation Platforms and Automation Products:

Automation Platforms provide core functionality and provide an integration point for other applications. They ‘talk’ with complementary solutions and are foundational to a recruitment agency’s technology stack.

Automation Products integrate with platforms to help mutual customers solve their business problems. Products have a specialised focus that can limit their scopes, such as VMS or onboarding automation, but they are valuable stand-alone or connected with a platform.
