Before onboarding, you have to find the right person
- Screening that takes time. Before you can think about welcoming a new employee, you have to read every application and spot the right profiles.
- Conversations scattered everywhere. Email, calls, messages: early conversations with candidates get lost across several channels.
- Decisions that are hard to justify. Without shared criteria, it's hard to explain why one candidate was chosen over another.
How the HR Cloud integration works
- You authorize the connection. During setup, an admin on your HR Cloud account authorizes Delectus to read your job postings and applications.
- Applications arrive in Delectus. Job postings, applications and resumes are pulled in automatically, read-only: nothing is changed in HR Cloud.
- The agents take it from there. Each resume is compared with the job, then the prescreening agents reach out to the candidates you shortlist.
What does the Delectus HR Cloud integration add?
HR Cloud is HR software that covers recruiting and onboarding in particular. Companies use it to follow their candidates all the way to their first day on the team.
Delectus doesn't replace HR Cloud. It sits on top of the recruiting side and takes on some of the work the software leaves to your team: reading resumes, reaching out to candidates and preparing interviews. You keep HR Cloud for everything else.
The connection is read-only. Delectus pulls in your job postings, applications and resumes but writes nothing back to HR Cloud: your records and statuses stay exactly as they are. The data is hosted in the European Union, is never used to train models and follows your retention periods. The decisions stay with your team.
The start of the journey, powered by AI
Your HR software handles the end of the journey well, from accepted offer to first day. The beginning, though, is still manual: reading resumes, reaching candidates, scheduling interviews.
Delectus takes on that beginning. Job postings and applications from HR Cloud are pulled in read-only. Resumes are ranked with their reasons, shortlisted candidates are prescreened by text or phone, and interviews are prepared around shared criteria.
Screen HR Cloud applications without reading every one
In Delectus, applications from HR Cloud are ranked as soon as they arrive. Each score is explained criterion by criterion, with the parts of the resume that support it. You can also ask questions about a profile in the AI chat, for example whether the person has ever managed a team.
The applications you bring in also grow your candidate database. When a new job opens, Delectus suggests past candidates who fit it, and you can search your database in plain language, then narrow down by experience, skills or location.
Prescreen by text and by phone
Once you've picked the profiles, the SMS prescreening agent gets in touch. It says up front that it's an AI, gets the candidate's consent, then checks the points in the job posting: availability, expectations, willingness to relocate. Candidates reply when they can, by text or on WhatsApp.
When a candidate hasn't replied after two follow-ups, the voice prescreening agent calls them. If they still can't be reached, you get an alert. Each person's answers are in their candidate profile, and the interview is booked into the slots you actually have free.
Example: an office manager role
A small business opens an office manager position. Applications arrive in HR Cloud, then in Delectus. The CEO first reads the five top-ranked profiles, each with a summary of strengths and gaps.
The SMS prescreening agent checks candidates' availability and expectations, then offers an interview slot. On interview day, the CEO has a set of questions and, afterwards, a report by theme to compare candidates.
Run every interview on the same footing
The interview kit follows the job's criteria, so every candidate is asked about the same points. On a video call in the platform, the transcript scrolls as you talk and the tool suggests follow-up questions. At the end, a report by theme sums up the answers, and the recording stays available if you want to go back to a moment.
