Before Pier
Hiring teams waste countless hours on manual screening, only to interview candidates who aren't qualified.
Recruiters spend half their day on phone screens
Each screening call takes 15-40 minutes. With dozens of candidates per role, that's entire days lost to repetitive conversations asking the same questions.
Inconsistent evaluation lets the wrong candidates through
Without structured rubrics, screening becomes subjective. Great candidates get overlooked while unqualified ones advance, wasting everyone's time.
Resumes don't tell the real story
Anyone can polish a resume or use AI to pass written assessments. You need to hear candidates speak to understand their true abilities.
Manual processes create endless bottlenecks
Scheduling conflicts, delayed follow-ups, and coordination chaos extend hiring cycles by weeks—while top candidates accept other offers.
