"Cut our screening time way down without losing control of the process"

5/5

What do you like best about SIA?

What stands out most is how much manual screening work SIA takes off our recruiters' plates without taking away our control. It automatically evaluates every applicant against the criteria we set — skills, experience, career stability — and gives us a ranked shortlist with a written rationale for each candidate, so we're not just trusting a black-box score.

It also works alongside our existing ATS rather than replacing it — candidate scores, notes, and status updates sync back in real time, so our team isn't juggling two systems. The chatbot prescreening has cut down a lot of the back-and-forth we used to spend chasing candidates for basic qualifying info. Overall it's freed our recruiters up to spend their time on actual conversations with candidates instead of sorting through resumes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SIA solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Senseloaf, our recruiters were manually reviewing a huge volume of applicants for every role, which meant a lot of time went into sorting and shortlisting instead of actually talking to candidates. SIA handles that first pass now — every applicant gets evaluated consistently against the criteria we care about, and our team gets a ranked, evidence-backed shortlist instead of a raw pile of resumes to dig through.

It's also solved the "who do we follow up with first" problem. The prescreening chatbot reaches out to candidates right away instead of them sitting in a queue for days, so we're not losing good people to slower response times.

The bigger benefit has been freeing up recruiter time for the part of the job that actually needs a human — the conversation with the candidate — instead of the administrative screening work leading up to it. It's also made our evaluation more consistent across roles, since every candidate is being measured against the same criteria instead of varying by whoever happens to be reviewing that day.
