Phenom developed this guide to help organizations turn their high-volume hiring strategy into effective action by addressing three key areas:
- Hiring Priorities — To overcome hiring challenges like limited resources and competing priorities, HR can take action and chart a path forward by identifying roles that have low complexity and minimal experience requirements — which have the potential to be supported by automation technology.
- Hiring Processes — To eliminate inefficiencies, employers must evaluate existing processes, identify repetitive, unnecessary actions, leverage AI and note opportunities for automating hiring workflows. This will relieve recruiting teams and managers of tedious, time-consuming tasks such as job matching, candidate screening, and interview scheduling.
- Hiring Stakeholders — To ensure the successful deployment and adoption of new high-volume hiring workflows, stakeholder alignment across talent teams, operations leaders, and on-site hiring managers is essential.
AI and Automation’s Role in High-Volume Hiring Practices
In addition to providing step-by-step guidance on ways organizations can improve operational efficiencies, the runbook outlines the most effective AI and automation technology to realize immediate success:
- AI-powered career site that provides personalized candidate experiences and job recommendations based on an individual’s resume, skills, experience, geographic location and more.
- Intelligent chatbot that conversationally guides job seekers through verification of interests and certifications or advanced credentials (if required), screening, creation of a candidate record, collection of referrals, and on to further hiring actions.
- One-way video interview that is embedded in a chatbot or career site to automate screening and empower candidates to respond to key qualifying questions before being routed to recruiters or hiring managers for review.
- AI scheduling that automates the coordination of one-to-one, one-to-many, or sequential interviews based on hiring priorities and job roles.
- Intelligent workflow automation which uses employer-defined “if/then” logic to fast track qualified candidates into the final hiring stages for relevant jobs.
When these capabilities are combined, organizations can more efficiently and effectively scale how they engage, screen, interview and hire candidates — whether they are acquiring thousands of workers for a seasonal hiring push, filling always-on high-volume roles, or supporting specialized positions.
Talent acquisition teams can leverage templates to easily create job descriptions and set guardrails for on-site hiring managers and recruiters. Hiring managers and recruiters can view all of the positions they’re responsible for, as well as: create new jobs, post available roles that are appropriate to share, engage candidates through email and SMS campaigns, and track performance with analytics dashboards. And candidates can interact with a chatbot to quickly discover relevant jobs, go through knockout questions, and either schedule or record an interview. If they meet the qualifications for the job, conditional offers can also be extended — all before involving a recruiter or hiring manager.
“As the nation’s top lawn company, our seasonal workforce grows to 15,000+ employees each year. With Phenom, we’ve built a scalable, repeatable talent process that exceeds our high-volume hiring demands,” said Rebecca Schoepfer, CHRO at TruGreen. “Our career site, chatbot, CRM and easy apply process create phenomenal moments for job seekers that reinforce our employer brand and culture.”
