New partnership to help to streamline sourcing and maximize placements

May 18th, 2020 – Textkernel, specialist in machine intelligence for matching people and jobs, and Sense, the leading candidate engagement platform, today announced a new partnership to streamline sourcing and maximize placements. The new integration provides staffing professionals with a robust workflow to source more efficiently, automate candidate engagement, increase placements, and grow their business.
Staffing firm resources are maxed out, with recruiters handling high volumes of talent and manual tasks each day. Sorting through candidates in Bullhorn for matches to the right jobs can take significant time and effort, slowing down placements and delaying timely outreach to qualified talent.
Textkernel’s and Sense’s integration enables staffing professionals to source and match candidates and jobs more quickly and effectively, automating candidate outreach and engagement. The streamlined integration saves recruiters valuable time, increases placement activity, and ensures the most qualified candidates from Bullhorn are contacted with the right information.
The power of AI and automation
The powerful combination of Textkernel’s advanced, AI-powered searching and matching technology and Sense’s candidate engagement software creates an efficient and effective workflow for staffing firms of any vertical or size. Using Textkernel’s ‘one-click’ Search and Match technology, recruiters source and shortlist candidates in their Bullhorn database and external sources. Sense seamlessly picks up the next step of engaging those shortlisted – at zero extra effort.
From one-click match to automated messaging. Here’s how it works
Textkernel is the only tool that allows staffing professionals to create a match based on either a job description or resume with just one single click, identifying and shortlisting your top candidates and assigning them to an automated workflow. Sense initiates a candidate engagement workflow automatically, delivering a better experience than any recruiter could on their own.
Candidate engagement workflows with Sense are customized and never impersonal – automated emails or texts to shortlisted candidates come from a recruiter’s email or phone number and drive engagement for initial interest or screening. With a direct association to a specific open role in Bullhorn, Sense outreach can contain job details or a specific call-to-action. Sense’s direct integration with Bullhorn also syncs talent responses and status changes back to the ATS, enabling triggered notifications to candidate owners when top talent is interested and available for open roles.
Sense not only powers engagement to active candidates, but also powers automated workflows across the entire talent lifecycle with continuous on-assignment check-ins, NPS surveys, redeployment and referral workflows, and a native two-way texting platform.
“Bullhorn Marketplace partners like Textkernel and Sense allow recruiters to enhance their workflow seamlessly. This is taken to a new level when these partners integrate with each other. The end result of our integration with Sense is a smooth experience that saves valuable time each and every day,” says Philip van Leeuwen, Director Global Partnerships at Textkernel.
“Recruiter productivity and candidate engagement are critical to win in staffing. We are thrilled to partner with Textkernel to make sourcing and engaging top talent both effortless and effective,” says Pankaj Jindal, Co-Founder of Sense. “This integration will significantly streamline how teams place talent and elevate the standard for candidate experiences across the industry
