Elate combines AI automation with a custom-built Applicant Tracking System (ATS) designed specifically for your brand. Here’s how we simplify and supercharge your recruitment process.
Step 1: You send us your job descriptions
Start by sending us the roles you’re hiring for. Our system uses this to understand the ideal candidate profile.
Step 2: AI Sourcing + Outreach
We scan job boards and databases using AI and automate outreach at scale.
Step 3: Smart Shortlisting
Our system screens and ranks candidates so you only see the best.
Step 4: Delivered to Your ATS
Qualified candidates land directly in your branded ATS for easy review.
Traditional hiring is slow, costly, and inefficient. Before exploring the benefits of AI recruitment, it’s important to understand the common challenges that hold businesses back.
High Recruitment Costs
Here's a breakdown of the factors contributing to high recruitment costs:
Traditional recruitment agencies usually charge hefty fees, typically between 15% and 30% of a new hire's salary. This can result in significant costs, with companies spending tens of thousands of pounds for each new employee.
Hidden Costs
Beyond agency fees, the hours spent reviewing CVs, scheduling interviews, and managing communications quickly add up. Without AI recruitment software, these inefficiencies continue to drain budgets and delay hiring.
Unqualified Applicants
Traditional sourcing floods employers with irrelevant CVs. This lowers efficiency and increases the risk of a bad hire, one of the most expensive mistakes a business can make.
Time-Consuming Screening
Sorting through unqualified applicants slows the process and prevents teams from focusing on the right talent. This is why many employers are shifting to AI recruiting software to streamline the process.
SmartHire was built to solve the problems of traditional hiring. With AI-driven recruitment, employers cut costs, speed up time-to-hire, and interview only the right candidates. Unlike agencies or job boards, SmartHire gives you guaranteed results.
Seamless ATS Integration
Keep every candidate interaction in one place. With SmartHire’s built-in ATS, all data is stored in a centralized dashboard, making it easy to view, manage, and track applicants in real-time. No more scattered emails or lost CVs — everything you need is streamlined into a single AI-powered recruitment system.
Cost-Efficiency
Traditional agencies charge hefty commissions, often 15–30% of a new hire’s salary. With SmartHire, you only pay for access to a cost-effective, scalable solution. There are no hidden fees, no inflated costs, and no commissions — just transparent pricing designed to cut your recruitment spend in half.
Faster Hiring
Manual recruitment takes weeks of back-and-forth communication with agencies, job boards, and unqualified applicants. SmartHire automates sourcing, shortlisting, and pre-screening through AI-driven recruitment, reducing your time-to-hire by up to 80%. That means you can move from job post to booked interviews in days, not weeks.
Full Control Over Your Hiring Process
SmartHire puts you back in charge. Instead of handing off recruitment to third parties, you gain complete ownership of candidate management. Pre-screen applicants, schedule interviews, communicate directly, and track every step of the process from one dashboard. It’s a level of transparency and control an AI recruiter platform provides — something traditional methods can’t match.
High Recruitment Costs
Smart Sourcing – AI scans job boards, social media, and databases to instantly find the best candidates.
Automated Screening – CVs and profiles are checked automatically to match skills and experience.
Predictive Matching – AI ranks and matches candidates to roles using advanced analytics.
Always-Ready Talent Pool – Maintain a pipeline of pre-qualified candidates, ready to interview anytime.
