By automating these time-consuming tasks, recruiters can focus on what they do best—building meaningful interactions with candidates and hiring managers, rather than being bogged down by administrative work.

Autonomous Interview Scheduling: Schedule interviews with candidates seamlessly with real-time availability, minimizing the usual back-and-forth involved in coordinating schedules.

Comprehensive Interview Feedback Summaries: Generate detailed summaries from the interviewer’s feedback in seconds, enabling recruiters to make faster and more informed hiring decisions.

With these capabilities, Asymbl Recruiter Agent’s agent actions accelerate the entire recruiter workflow, making it more efficient and effective for staffing firms and corporate recruiters looking to optimize their workflows and achieve faster placements.

“I’ve been part of the Salesforce ecosystem for 20 years and have worked in the talent management, staffing, and recruitment industries for just about as long. I’ve never experienced a more exciting moment for growth, innovation, and immediate impact,” said Brandon Metcalf, CEO and Founder of Asymbl, Inc. “The energy around AI today, coupled with the groundbreaking advancements and impact we’re achieving through our collaboration with Salesforce, is driving immediate and transformative change in staffing and recruiting.
