Trelevate Met Client Demand and Cut Costs by 91% with Screenify

Trelevate has been a leader in outsourced sales and marketing since 1996, serving clients across the US.

‍
Expanding into Pittsburgh presented a new challenge for Trelevate: managing an overwhelming volume of applicants. To scale their screening process, Trelevate partnered with Screenify to introduce AI interviews. Under the guidance of Jackie Bourgeix, Director of Business Development, Trelevate quickly realized a 975% ROI and slashed costs by 91%, thanks to the time saved in scheduling and conducting initial screenings, as well as the increase in higher-quality candidates moving through their recruiting funnel.

Challenge: Screenings were booked out for weeks

Recently, Trelevate expanded into the Pittsburgh market, and their recruiters were overbooked. On top of this, recruiters and hiring managers were spending time with unqualified and uninterested applicants. Previous, attempts with 1-way video interviews failed to engage candidates and provide a personalized, human-like experience. Trelevate was searching for a solution to screen and surface the top applicants while still providing an exceptional candidate experience.

"We receive about 98 applicants per day for each client. They expect us to hire rapidly, but we were spending too much time with applicants that weren’t interested or qualified for the job.”
