Employment management platform, Employment Hero’s recruitment tool, SmartMatch is now taking two weeks off the recruitment process for employers.

With one million job seeker profiles and 10,000 candidates signing up each week, SmartMatch is the first tool in the world where live candidate searches have been made available inside a HR system.

Built into Employment Hero’s platform for employers and powered by employee super app, Swag for job seekers, SmartMatch facilitates proactive and predictive hiring by analysing a business’s organisation chart and predicting hiring needs based on sector, size, location, and seasonal trends.

Employers can surface candidates against existing roles, for example where an identical growth role is required or when an employee resigns. For recruiting new roles, a simple search can yield results within seconds. The full functionality of Employment Hero’s Applicant Tracking System helps employers manage candidates to start the interview process immediately. 

Employment Hero managing director of Swag, David Holland said, “Our innovative approach marks the end of the ‘pay and pray’ recruitment model, ensuring a continuous talent pipeline that will save businesses thousands of dollars. Gone are the days of writing job descriptions, placing ads, and sorting through countless CVs. Instead, SmartMatch’s AI-driven approach ensures that the most suitable candidates are matched with the right roles seamlessly. 

“Now, both hiring managers and job seekers can claw back hours of time previously spent stuck in an inefficient process. We’re confident that SmartMatch deletes two weeks from the current recruitment process by eliminating this need for employers to go out and find their own candidates.”
