Calculate AI Time Savings: Staffing Agencies
In the staffing industry, speed-to-fill is your primary competitive advantage. Every hour a recruiter spends manually screening resumes or chasing timesheets is an hour they aren't closing placements. By implementing AI-driven workflows, agencies can automate top-of-funnel screening and administrative data entry into ATS platforms like Bullhorn or JobDiva. Read Laboratories specializes in deploying AI agents that handle the heavy lifting of candidate qualification and document collection, allowing your team to focus on high-value client relationships and final-stage interviews.

By automating the first 24 hours of the recruitment cycle (screening and scheduling), agencies typically see a 30-40% reduction in total time-to-fill.
Is the AI compliant with hiring regulations?
We design AI workflows to be objective and consistent, which can actually help reduce bias in initial screening compared to manual human reviews.
