1. EASIER TO USE
Mastering the art of Boolean sourcing is not easy. AI-driven platforms, on the other hand, are fast and easy to use. With a few clicks, recruiters can quickly set up their searches be confident they will see every viable candidate for their position, saving hours of search time.
2. MORE SOPHISTICATED RESULTS
Boolean searches only produce yes or no results – there's no space for 'maybe'; missing out on that perfect candidates. AI-driven logic can understand ambiguity to give recruiters the full spectrum of potential candidates. Most sophisticated AI-driven searches will use natural language processing (NLP), identifying synonyms and the relationships between words and can even identify a transatlantic team that has 'done that before.'
3. MORE FREE TIME FOR RECRUITERS
Boolean searches must be proofread carefully – since it is a very manual process, a single misplaced piece of punctuation can render that particular Boolean search worthless. AI sourcing is much faster. Recruiters can configure their searches in a matter of minutes and leave the heavy lifting to sophisticated algorithms resulting in a 50-90% reduction in search time. That frees the recruiter to do what they do best, connecting with candidates.
4. ELIMINATE UNCONSCIOUS BIAS
We all know that diverse workplaces are more innovative, creative and productive. Those companies also benefit from a stronger employer brand and an enhanced level of employee engagement. AI-driven sourcing uncovers the most appropriate candidates and presents them to recruiters. While those algorithms can be configured to pay attention to factors like race and gender, they can also help recruiters to break free from their unconscious bias.
5. UNCOVER MORE CANDIDATES
Boolean searches return a list of results with no further insight. Your dream candidate might be at the top of the list – or they might be buried under several unsuitable candidates. AI-driven searches can weigh several factors to deliver the most suitable candidates in a logical order. This expedites the search process.
