Outside of the real estate industry, recruiting pipeline automation is quickly becoming a must-have tool for effective talent acquisition.
Why? Because machines do some tasks quicker, better, and timelier than humans.
Human resources researchers have started documenting the tangible benefits recruitment automation offers.
Boosting recruiter productivity. By introducing pipeline automation technology, companies often experience an increase in their recruitment team’s productivity of 50% or more.The biggest gains come from companies who have labor-intensive or manual recruitment processes or systems.
Decreasing time to hire. It takes, on average, 42 days to fill a position (for a real estate agent, it’s about 120 days). Companies who use pipeline automation software are reducing time-to-hire by at least 25%.
Hiring better quality. Automation helps high-performing organizations identify and engage the best-fit candidates quickly and reliably. This is especially true for high-volume hiring applications.
If you delegate your repetitive and mundane tasks to software, you’ll have more time and energy to focus on the tasks only a human can do effectively.
