As competition for talent intensifies, organizations are finding it increasingly difficult to navigate the hiring process. With 54% of candidates dropping out due to poor communication and time-to-hire averaging 39 days, hiring teams are losing out on top talent. The pressure on recruiters handling multiple vacancies makes it clear: manual processes are no longer enough.
That’s why PeopleForce introduced one of our most requested features – Recruit automations. This tool automates pipeline key actions like sending follow-up emails, assigning tasks to hiring managers, and providing test assignments, making the hiring process faster, more accurate, and seamless.
By automating these tasks, Recruit automations ensures:
Currently, the PeopleForce platform offers two types of automations: Pipeline Automations and Disqualify Reason Automations.
This type of automation streamlines crucial tasks regarding candidates. Each time a candidate moves to a different stage, the system automatically performs actions to support this process.
Pipeline Automations will help you:
Example:
After the first interview, pipeline automations send a follow-up email with next steps, ask for the candidate's availability, enable tagging, and allow the hiring team to note their strengths for easier differentiation later.
When candidates are disqualified for specific reasons, it's important to communicate effectively with them and consistently document the reasons for their rejection in the system.
Disqualify Reason automations will help you:
Save time by automating routine repetitive tasks and optimize the relevant hiring process.
Example:
For instance, if a candidate is disqualified, the system can send a follow-up email outlining the rejection reasons, create a task, add a note to the candidate's profile, or apply a tag based on the disqualification reason. This helps ensure seamless communication until the end while saving recruiters valuable time.
Let's illustrate with an example of pipeline automations.
In the candidate profiles, you will be able to see which emails have been sent to them, etc. Automations can be easily modified, added, or removed.
Disqualify reason automations function in a similar way. When a candidate is disqualified for a particular reason, the system automatically triggers the assigned actions.
Please note that more details about the setup can be found in the PeopleForce knowledge base.
Here are three key reasons why pipeline automation is a game-changer:
