AI & automation
What is Recruitment Automation?
Recruitment automation uses software to perform repetitive hiring tasks — sourcing, screening, scheduling, follow-ups and data entry — without manual effort. It frees recruiters to focus on relationships and decisions while improving speed, consistency and candidate experience.
Most recruiter time is lost to admin: chasing CVs, updating records, scheduling and sending follow-ups. Recruitment automation hands those tasks to software so consultants spend their time on judgement and relationships.
recruitMaxx takes automation further with autonomous AI agents: HireMaxx sources and screens candidates continuously, while PilotMaxx acts as a natural-language copilot across the platform — all inside Salesforce.

AI Candidate Sourcing
AI candidate sourcing uses artificial intelligence to find, rank and engage candidates automatically — parsing skills and intent across large talent pools and surfacing the best-fit people for a role far faster than manual search.
Agentic Recruiting
Agentic recruiting uses autonomous AI agents that carry out multi-step recruitment tasks on their own — sourcing, screening, engaging and shortlisting candidates — rather than simply assisting a recruiter with suggestions. The agent acts, then reports back for human decisions.
Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is software that manages candidates through the hiring process — from application and screening to interview, offer and placement. It centralises CVs, statuses and communication so recruiters can move candidates through a structured pipeline.
