Short answer

How can I audit my candidate pipelines using AI?

You can ask your AI to pull specific lists of candidates based on their current interview stage or the job they applied for. This gives you an immediate view of where people are stuck in your funnel.

Pipeline views.

Where your data lands.

The AI pulls information from Recruit CRM and organizes it into these views.

STAGNANT

Identify stuck candidates

The AI finds people who haven't moved stages in a while. You get a clear list of who needs a follow-up.

VOLUME

Check stage density

See how many people are sitting in each interview phase. This helps you spot where your process is bottlenecked.

JOB-SPECIFIC

Review single openings

Get a focused list of every applicant for a specific role. This makes it easy to see the quality of a single pipeline.

HUMAN

Final decision making

The AI provides the raw lists and counts. You still make the calls on which candidates to advance or reject.
