We Saved One Client's Recruiting Team Approximately 33 Hours in 2 Days of Production
We saved one client's recruiting team approximately 33 hours in 2 days of production.
Not by adding headcount. By removing the work that shouldn't need a human.
Here's where recruiter time actually goes in a typical screening cycle for a few hundred candidates:
Resume review. At 4 minutes per resume, hundreds of resumes consume a full day of a recruiter's time. Gia screened them in seconds each. Median: 6.8 seconds per resume.
Dead dials and callbacks. At a 40 to 50% pickup rate, roughly half your call attempts go unanswered. Each one costs 2+ minutes of redialling, logging, rescheduling. Gia's pickup rate was 85%. Far fewer wasted attempts.
Call time on unqualified candidates. Recruiters spend 10 to 15 minutes on calls with candidates who were never going to make it. With Gia, when a must-have fails, the call ends cleanly in under 2 minutes. Candidate is told why. Recruiter spends zero time.
Status logging and coordination. Every call needs documentation. Outcomes need logging. Briefing the next person needs time. With Gia, every call is auto-documented with scores, transcripts, and reasoning. Zero logging time.
The total: approximately 3x more efficient. The equivalent of 3 recruiters' output, delivered by one AI agent.
The question for CFOs isn't whether AI hiring works. It's how much your current process costs in recruiter hours that produce no hiring decision.
