Challenges

1. Rising recruitment costs

DCA was heavily reliant on costly job postings and expensive recruitment platforms but saw diminishing returns. With a growing need for top talent and a hiring goal of 2,500 roles annually, the increasing cost of recruitment was unsustainable, leading the team to seek a more cost-effective and proactive solution.

2. Inefficiency in recruiting processes

The team’s previous recruiting technology was cumbersome, requiring excessive manual work and multiple clicks to perform basic searches. This inefficiency slowed down recruiters, limiting their ability to engage candidates quickly and build strong relationships. Additionally, outdated and inaccurate candidate data made outreach less effective.

3. Hard-to-fill roles

Dental Care Alliance struggled to source specialized dental professionals, particularly in competitive markets with limited talent pools. Some roles, like specialists, had as few as ten qualified candidates in an entire state, making traditional sourcing methods inefficient and time-consuming.

Solutions

1. Cutting costs and boosting results

By shifting from a job-posting-heavy approach to AI-driven sourcing, Dental Care Alliance reduced its Indeed budget by 60% and cut its overall recruitment expenses by 20%. Additionally, offer-to-acceptance rates improved by 18% for dentists and 45% for hygienists, allowing DCA to fill positions faster and with greater efficiency.

2. Streamlining workflows and building better candidate relationships

hireEZ’s intuitive AI-powered search functionality reduced the manual workload for recruiters, freeing up more time for meaningful candidate engagement. Reliable and accurate contact information allowed recruiters to reach out quickly, leading to more efficient communication and improved candidate experiences. By eliminating unnecessary steps in the recruiting process, hireEZ helped the team focus on high-value interactions.

3. Targeting specialized talent with precision

hireEZ’s AI Sourcing provided advanced filtering and geographical targeting, enabling Dental Care Alliance to quickly identify and connect with passive candidates in even the most talent-scarce locations. By adjusting search parameters dynamically, recruiters could expand search areas efficiently, ensuring a steady pipeline of qualified candidates for hard-to-fill roles.
