GR8 People integration: your hiring in France, accelerated

Hiring in France with a group-wide tool

• A tool chosen at group level. The platform is shared across all countries, but the French team has to work with its own candidates, roles and language.
• A small local team. A handful of recruiters handle every role in the country, from interns to executives.
• Candidates to reach fast. In a tight market, the time between application and first conversation often makes the difference.

How the GR8 People integration works

1. You authorize the connection. During setup, an admin of your GR8 People platform authorizes Delectus to read your jobs and applications.
2. Applications arrive. Jobs, applications and resumes are pulled in automatically, read-only. Nothing is changed in GR8 People.
3. The agents work in French. Resumes are compared with each job, then the agents contact shortlisted candidates in French.

What does the Delectus GR8 People integration add?

GR8 People is an enterprise recruiting software, often deployed across an entire group. Your processes and reports stay common to every country there.

Delectus gives the French team what it's missing day to day: a fast read of resumes against each role, and agents that handle first conversations with candidates, in French, at times when they're available.

Agents that speak your candidates' language

The SMS prescreening agent introduces itself as an AI, asks for the candidate's consent, then asks the job's questions using the role's vocabulary. It follows up when an answer is vague and spots those that contradict each other. It also communicates over WhatsApp. The voice prescreening agent calls when messages go unanswered after two follow-ups, with a French voice and a calm pace.

Answers are filed by criterion in the candidate profile. Before the interview even starts, the recruiter knows whether availability, pay and willingness to relocate are compatible.

Comparable interviews, even with several hiring managers

Each role gets an interview kit with questions and scoring criteria. The video interview is transcribed in real time, and a report by theme is produced at the end. Hiring managers, in France and at headquarters, read the same information before deciding.

The built-in calendar syncs with Outlook and Teams, and interviews are booked into everyone's real open slots.

Example: a growing French subsidiary

The French subsidiary of an international group opens about fifteen sales and technical positions in a quarter. Applications pulled from GR8 People are ranked for each job. The SMS agent qualifies shortlisted candidates in French and offers slots to hiring managers. The local recruiter focuses on interviews and on her relationship with the managers.

Interview reports are written in a common format that managers at headquarters can read easily. When the subsidiary opens new roles the next quarter, it starts again from the same criteria and the candidates it has already met.

Setting up the GR8 People integration for the French team

Setup is done with a platform admin, who authorizes the connection. The French team then picks the jobs involved, checks their criteria in Delectus and reviews the questions the agent will ask, using the vocabulary of French roles and local conditions, such as contract type, working hours or the applicable collective bargaining agreement.

Once the first conversations have been observed, the team extends the setup to the country's other jobs. Headquarters doesn't have to change anything in its processes: GR8 People remains the system of record, and Delectus handles the daily work of selection and qualification in France.

GR8 People integration: read-only, with data in Europe

The connection changes nothing in GR8 People. Delectus reads your jobs, applications and resumes. The data retrieved is hosted in the European Union, is not used to train any model and follows your retention periods.
