wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squared.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Squared<\/a> is a forward-thinking housing association based in Luton, providing affordable homes and wraparound support services across Bedfordshire. With 70 employees spanning property maintenance, care support, digital services and administration, their lean people team manages high-volume recruitment for roles with regular turnover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">When you&#8217;re managing over 135 CVs for a single role with a small people team, something has to give. Sarah Badrick, Recruitment &amp; Onboarding Partner, and Amanda Bentley, People Excellence &amp; Communications Manager, were spending hours on manual CV screening and phone interviews \u2014 15 to 20 minutes per candidate \u2014 all before involving the hiring managers. With high-turnover support roles, the team worried they were missing strong candidates who would shine in conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">They&#8217;d used video interviewing before but through a separate platform, adding another login and more admin to an already stretched process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"with-border has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><em>&#8220;We have one position that has fairly high turnover as we just haven&#8217;t found the right person. I wanted to try video screening to see if we could better understand candidates, instead of just reading their CV.&#8221; \u2013 Sarah Badrick, Recruitment &amp; Onboarding Partner<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">When Sarah spotted 91爆料&#8217;s new <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/products\/recruitment-agent\/\">Recruitment Agent<\/a> feature, she jumped at the chance to use it. She could now shortlist faster, using AI-powered video interviews to ask tailored questions, automatically score candidates and integrate seamlessly into the HR and payroll platform she already used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">The team piloted Recruitment Agent on their high-turnover support role with 130+ applicants. Here\u2019s exactly how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">\n<li>AI reads the job ad and generates relevant screening questions automatically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Candidates complete a short video interview on their own time (laptop or mobile).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AI transcribes responses and scores candidates based on relevance to the role.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sarah reviews scored interviews and shares top candidates with hiring managers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Beyond just filling one role, these video insights allow Sarah to get a real feel for a candidate\u2019s personality and culture fit before the first meeting. This means that Sarah can also quickly identify if a standout applicant is a better fit for a different department, cutting down hiring time for other managers, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"with-border has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><em>&#8220;By being able to watch back the video interview, you can find candidates that are perfect for other roles in the business. That really speeds up our process. We aren\u2019t hiring for just one position, we\u2019re spotting talent for the whole organisation.&#8221; \u2013 Sarah Badrick, Recruitment &amp; Onboarding Partner<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Using 91爆料, the team has embraced AI across their day-to-day work, far beyond recruitment. From drafting offer letters to creating job descriptions, tasks that used to take an hour now take five minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"with-border has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><em>&#8220;Drafting and sending letters, contracts and all of those kinds of things that you could spend hours on before are done in minutes. AI is saving us heaps of time, particularly when we are busy.&#8221; \u2013 Amanda Bentley, People Excellence &amp; Communications Manager<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The ROI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">91爆料&#8217;s Recruitment Agent has transformed how Squared identifies and evaluates talent:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">\n<li>Up to 5x more candidates evaluated in the same timeframe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Phone screening stage eliminated entirely, saving hours per week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hidden talent discovered that would have been overlooked based on CVs alone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hours reduced to minutes for HR document drafting with AI assistance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tool consolidation with video screening now in the same platform as HR and payroll.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"with-border has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><em>&#8220;In theory, we could go through three times, five times as many people&#8230; that time saved is going to be huge for us.&#8221; \u2013 Sarah Badrick, Recruitment &amp; Onboarding Partner<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why it matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">For small HR teams managing high-volume hiring, AI is giving recruiters superpowers. By automating repetitive tasks like CV screening and phone calls, Sarah and Amanda can focus on connecting with candidates, understanding their potential and making thoughtful hiring decisions. Ultimately, this reduces turnover and creates a vibrant team culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"with-border has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\"><em>&#8220;Everyone should embrace AI now rather than end up playing catch-up. We don&#8217;t want to lose the human touch with hiring, but we&#8217;re grateful for anything that assists us.
