Automating resume screening using AI algorithms saves companies time-to-hire. On average, a recruiter spends 6 seconds to manually scan a resume [1]. AI algorithms can process exponentially more applicants than humans in the same time reducing the amount of applicants recruiters have to manually evaluate before hiring someone for a specific position.
