ReachMee integration: from a flood of applications to a shortlist

The bottlenecks of high-volume hiring

• An endless first read. On a job open to the general public, reading resumes can take several days.
• Requirements checked too late. You find out in the interview that a candidate isn't available for three months.
• Slow replies. Candidates wait for their first response, and some commit elsewhere in the meantime.

How the ReachMee integration works

1. Connection. During setup, a ReachMee admin authorizes the connection from Delectus.
2. Sync. Job postings and applications come in automatically, read-only.
3. Screening and prescreening. An explained ranking, then a conversation with each shortlisted candidate, run by the agents.

ReachMee in a nutshell

ReachMee is a recruiting system from Sweden, used by employers, notably organizations that hire at volume.

The ReachMee integration changes nothing about your job ads or your careers page. Delectus receives the applications and takes on the first round of selection.

For candidates, the application flow stays the one you set up in ReachMee. It's what comes next that speeds up: a first message within hours, instead of a wait of several days.

How Delectus handles applications from ReachMee

Every resume is read by the AI and turned into a structured profile. It's then compared with the job's criteria, with a fit score and its reasons. Recruiters start with the closest candidates without the others disappearing: a candidate ranked low stays visible and can always move forward.

The criteria come from the job posting and apply the same way to every application, whether there are twenty or a thousand.

For each candidate, the candidate profile brings together a summary of their strengths and gaps for the role, the score broken down criterion by criterion and, if needed, the AI chat's answers to the questions you ask about the profile.

Check the role's requirements before the interview

The SMS prescreening agent contacts shortlisted candidates, says it's an AI and asks for their consent. It then asks the job's questions: availability, hours, mobility, required degrees or certifications. It spots an answer that contradicts another and asks for clarification.

Candidates who don't reply get two follow-ups, then a call from the voice prescreening agent. When the answers fit, the agent offers an interview slot on the recruiter's calendar. The recruiter only calls back those who deserve it or whose answer needs discussing.

The ReachMee integration for high-volume hiring

When a job gets hundreds of applications, the challenge is no longer reading them all, but not missing a single good profile. The ReachMee integration brings every application into Delectus, where it's read and ranked on the job's criteria. Recruiters start at the top of the list, and the SMS prescreening agent contacts shortlisted candidates in parallel.

Candidates get a quick first conversation, even at the peak of a campaign. Those who don't reply get follow-ups, then a call from the voice prescreening agent. Recruiters no longer lose their days trying to reach candidates, and keep their time for interviews.

What to plan for

Whoever administers ReachMee authorizes the connection from Delectus. For each campaign, you define the criteria and prescreening questions, then check the first rankings before extending to every job.

Keep a record of every conversation

Messages, call transcripts and answers to each criterion are kept in the candidate profile. If a colleague takes over the search, they know right away where everyone stands. The data stays hosted in the European Union and follows your retention periods.

Tasks are shared among team members, and a notification alerts the recruiter as soon as a candidate replies. During a busy campaign, nobody loses track.
