Benelux AI in Recruitment Award 2024 finalists

The second edition of the Benelux AI in Recruitment Award highlights companies pushing boundaries with innovative AI applications. Six finalists were discussed, each demonstrating how technology can transform recruitment processes. Now, it's up to the expert jury to decide the winner. These are the finalists: 

1. ORANJEGROEP: Managing large-scale recruitment processes across ten countries with a small team was a challenge until ORANJEGROEP integrated Recrubo.ai with Carerix. Their AI solution automates the entire workflow, from translating job listings into multiple languages to scheduling interviews via WhatsApp. The impact? In just six months, three recruiters managed over 15,000 candidates—a testament to the power of AI-driven automation.
2. NoMilk2Day: Active in the Netherlands, Asia, and the US, NoMilk2Day implemented the Byner ATS platform, an AI-powered tool that automates interviews, generates transcripts, and even analyses candidates' personality traits. Their advanced AI models are tailored for psychometric analysis, enabling a deeper understanding of candidates' communication styles and competencies.
3. PostNL: Facing challenges like ghosting and competition for applicants, PostNL partnered with Scotty AI to create a digital recruiter, “Charlie.” This AI can handle up to 500,000 conversations simultaneously, screening candidates efficiently without bias and even cross-selling job opportunities—showcasing scalability without compromising candidate experience.
4. In2Dialog: Their AI-driven tool integrates seamlessly with phone and online conversations, summarising and analysing interviews to provide psychometric insights. It is a powerful addition for recruiters seeking data-driven evaluations of candidate suitability.
5. sympl: Designed for recruitment marketing campaigns, sympl’s SaaS solution uses AI to help HR professionals create and optimise campaigns, even without marketing expertise. The tool leverages data-driven algorithms and A/B testing, allowing recruiters to maximise their reach and effectiveness.
6. The Selection Lab: This finalist offers video assessments powered by generative AI in over 40 languages. These assessments measure personality and cognitive skills, creating a personalised and efficient screening process for high-volume recruitment scenarios.
