Remote launches Recruit AI for global hiring solutions

Remote has unveiled Recruit AI, a tool designed to enhance the hiring process using artificial intelligence by connecting companies with global talent.

In light of the expanding remote work landscape, employers are increasingly looking to hire from a global talent pool, according to a survey conducted by Remote, which included over 4,000 recruiting leaders from 10 countries.

The survey highlighted that remote companies were almost twice as likely to face the issue of "too many candidates" as opposed to their in-office counterparts.

Recruit AI aims to simplify the hiring process by offering Matches, a feature leveraging AI to help employers find candidates best suited for their open positions. This tool is designed to go beyond simple keyword matching by considering the motivations, remote work preferences, and eligibility of candidates, as well as the necessary skills for the job.

Job van der Voort, CEO and Co-Founder of Remote, commented on the importance of Recruit AI and the Matches feature in addressing global hiring challenges: "Even though it is possible for many jobs now to be done independent of location, significant practical barriers still exist preventing companies from hiring outside their home areas. Employers often don't know where to start with sourcing good candidates and navigating the complexities of global hiring. At the same time, talented candidates frequently miss out on opportunities because they're not visible to the right companies," he explained. "Matches solves these challenges by instantly connecting employers with top global talent who are uniquely matched to their needs. This not only simplifies hiring but also creates more opportunities for people everywhere, helping to build a more inclusive and accessible global job market."

Matches pairs with Remote's existing tool, Talent Insights, which provides detailed information on talent accessibility, hiring complications, employee benefits, cost, and salary benchmarks.

The AI-driven tool functions by allowing recruiters and hiring managers to create job descriptions on the platform, which then analyses a proprietary database of active remote candidates.

It identifies those who meet the qualifications, experience, and salary expectations, providing suitable matches within seconds.

Users can further interact with the platform to optimise results by either moving candidates to the interview stage or dismissing them. Recruit AI anticipates learning from these interactions to enhance its recommendation engine.

For job seekers, Recruit AI facilitates an efficient job search process. Candidates create profiles and opt into Matches to receive recommendations for roles suited to their skills, avoiding the often time-consuming task of traditional networking.

Remote's platform further supports employers by offering features that allow for seamless onboarding, payment in local currency, and comprehensive employee management throughout the entire employment lifecycle.
