AI-Powered HR Copilot for Recruitment and Surveys

Client Profile

A fast-growing technology company experiencing rapid hiring cycles and increasing employee engagement needs.

Business Challenge

The HR team was overwhelmed by the scale of operations:

• Recruiters processed hundreds of resumes per job posting, leading to bottlenecks.
• Interview scheduling with hiring managers was inconsistent and time-consuming.
• Employee engagement surveys generated massive volumes of free-text responses, delaying response actions.

These manual processes led to missed insights, slower hiring, and delayed HR interventions. The company needed a scalable solution to automate recruitment workflows and extract real-time intelligence from employee surveys.

Solution Approach

We developed a multi-functional AI-powered HR Copilot to support recruitment and employee experience analysis. Recruitment Automation

• Resume & Cover Letter Screening:
  • Integrated with the company’s ATS.
  • Utilized GPT-4 + NLP classifiers to extract qualifications, assess alignment, and assign a “fit score.”
  • Bias mitigation implemented by prioritizing skills and experience-based keywords.
• Candidate Communication:
  • Automatically drafted personalized emails for interview invites and rejections.
  • Saved recruiters hours per week in correspondence.
• Interview Coordination:
  • Synced with calendars to suggest optimal interview times.
  • Generated tailored interview questions based on each candidate’s resume and role requirements.

Survey Analysis & Employee Sentiment

• Applied sentiment analysis using a fine-tuned transformer model.
• Categorized responses as positive, negative, or neutral.
• Used topic modeling to detect key themes like “leadership,” “work-life balance,” and “compensation.”
• Produced detailed reports (e.g., “80% of comments about Management are positive…”).
• Enabled chatbot interface for HR teams to ask real-time queries like:

“What were the top employee concerns in the latest survey?”
