Many agencies want to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/products\/automation-agents\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">automate every step of their VMS workflow<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to increase speed to market and see efficiency gains. From automatically syncing VMS jobs to the ATS to finding the best candidates to submitting candidates to VMSes all in one place, here\u2019s how you can best leverage automation and AI agents and assistants to turn recruiter productivity into profitability for your VMS business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Lay the foundation with VMS job automation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sync your VMS jobs to your ATS so that you can simply see the job come in and not waste any bandwidth on making sense of each VMS job, all while Bullhorn automates VMS jobs in the background. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/products\/automation-agents\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bullhorn VMS Sync<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> captures VMS jobs data and creates a job record in your ATS. VMS Sync then normalises the VMS data so it contextualises jobs across all VMSes, so everything looks the same regardless of which VMS the job is coming from. Have the information you need coming in where you expect it to be, with VMS Sync mapping VMS fields to ATS fields and applying business rules and routing logic your admin can set.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Source, screen, and qualify candidates with AI<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spend less time searching for qualified candidates and more time building relationships with the best ones with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/ai-toolkit\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. AI agents automatically enrich each job, build the public job description, categorise the job by AI, and automatically add screening questions. Then, AI agents automatically build search queries and match candidates to the job using our machine learning models. From there, automation engages with and sends personalised messages to candidates. Then, those candidates are screened by an AI agent, and the ones who are the best fit for the role are invited to book time on a recruiter\u2019s calendar.<\/span><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-81261 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/VMS-AI-Workflow-January-2025-e1740519755583.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/VMS-AI-Workflow-January-2025-e1740519755583.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/VMS-AI-Workflow-January-2025-e1740519755583-768x424.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/VMS-AI-Workflow-January-2025-e1740519755583-300x166.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/>\n<h3><strong>The last mile: Submit candidates faster to your VMS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bullhorn is committed to fully closing the ATS-VMS loop by deepening <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/uk\/products\/automation-agents\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VMS Sync Submittals<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> functionality. In addition to continuing to support <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/customer-blog\/bullhorn-vms-sync-submittals-win-more-vms-business-with-healthtrust-workforce-solutions\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">new integrations<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for VMS candidate submissions and innovate on VMS Sync jobs, we\u2019ve added three new features based on customer feedback to submit candidates faster.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>1. Enhanced submittal mapping<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get as close as possible to a 100% submission form completion to reduce manual work and reduce copy\/paste from your ATS to VMS. We\u2019ve greatly expanded this so an admin can map <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">any <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ATS field on the company, job, or candidate to the client submission form, which is especially useful if you\u2019ve done a lot of custom work to your ATS.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>2. Auto-populate based on last submission<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduce repetitive data entry, typos, and speed up the submission process when auto-populating based on last submission. When you\u2019re in the ATS to submit a candidate, it\u2019ll alert you that we\u2019ve found a previous submission. You can choose to start from scratch or use the same exact data that you submitted a few days or hours ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. Draft submissions<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have an account manager who must review every submission before getting the candidate over the VMS, recruiters can quickly create a draft submission. This draft submission can then be slotted in a queue for the account manager to quickly review and then push off, ensuring you\u2019re submitting your candidates correctly to increase the likelihood that your candidate submissions are accepted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With AI agents and assistants amplifying your workforce, you can accelerate speed to market, boost recruiter efficiency, and strengthen strategic VMS relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch our on-demand webinar to learn more about how <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bullhorn.com\/events\/vms-meets-ai\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VMS meets AI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The nature of recruiting is evolving dramatically with the rise of AI and automation to augment or replace tedious recruiting tasks \u2013 and the VMS recruiting process is no different.
