Automate talent workflows with AI
Recruiting teams drown in manual sourcing (13 hrs/week per role), resume screening (23 hrs per hire), and interview scheduling (38% of recruiter time). Skyvern's AI agents navigate job boards, ATS platforms, and government portals visually — automating the browser work so your team can focus on people.
Key workflows, automated.
From candidate sourcing to off-boarding — Skyvern handles the browser work so your team can focus on people.
Candidate Sourcing & Job Posting
Sourcing is the most time-consuming step in recruiting. Recruiters spend around 13 hours per week per open role sourcing candidates — roughly one-third of a standard work week. Manual sourcing (refining Boolean strings, copying names and emails across multiple tabs) consumes 60–70% of a recruiter's productive hours.
Skyvern can navigate across multiple job boards and social networks that lack public APIs, search for candidates using natural-language prompts, scrape profile details and compile lists of prospective candidates. This could reduce manual sourcing time and speed up time-to-source by up to 67%.
- Cross-site navigation without APIs
- Natural-language candidate search prompts
- Automated profile scraping and list building
- Adapts visually when portals redesign
Resume Screening & Interview Scheduling
Manual resume screening takes 5–25 hours for initial filtering depending on volume, and HR professionals spend 23 hours reviewing resumes per hire. Scheduling compounds the burden — recruiters spend 38% of their time on interview coordination, with each interview taking 30–90 minutes to arrange.
By integrating LLM-powered parsing with a company's hiring criteria, Skyvern could analyze resumes at scale, flag promising candidates and output structured data for ATS ingestion. For scheduling, Skyvern could read calendar availability, log into scheduling tools and coordinate interview slots across candidates and hiring managers.
- LLM-powered resume parsing at scale
- Structured output for ATS ingestion
- Automated calendar coordination
- Reduces back-and-forth scheduling overhead
Onboarding & Credential Management
Manual onboarding consumes ~10 hours of staff time per new hire across three departments, involving 6+ emails, updates in six different tools, and more than a dozen spreadsheets. Only 12% of employees feel their company does an excellent job of onboarding. IT provisioning adds 2–4 hours per device.
Skyvern could automate form submission on state and federal portals, provision accounts, upload documents and monitor status changes — cutting manual onboarding time significantly and ensuring consistent compliance across jurisdictions.
- Automated form submission on government portals
- Account provisioning across multiple systems
- Document upload and status monitoring
- Consistent compliance across jurisdictions
Background Checks & Compliance
Most criminal background checks finish within 24–72 hours, but employment and education verifications can take days to several weeks depending on the responsiveness of employers and institutions. Manual processes require contacting multiple entities, and compliance across jurisdictions (I-9, EEO, state new-hire reporting) relies on manual data entry and spreadsheets.
Skyvern's agents could repeatedly log in to background-check portals, monitor status updates, download reports and file new-hire compliance forms with state agencies. The platform's ability to handle CAPTCHAs and 2FA means it can work with court or government portals that require extra authentication.
- Auto-login to background check portals
- Status monitoring and report downloads
- I-9, EEO, and state reporting automation
- Handles CAPTCHAs and 2FA on gov portals
Off-boarding & Document Management
Off-boarding requires revoking system access across multiple platforms, collecting company equipment, conducting exit interviews, finalizing payroll and archiving documents. Manual off-boarding requires coordination across HR, IT, security and finance — a process prone to delays, missed steps and security risks.
Skyvern could automate tasks such as deactivating user accounts across multiple SaaS systems, collecting digital documents and transferring files to archives, ensuring that no access remains active after departure and that compliance documents are properly filed.
- Automated account deactivation across SaaS systems
- Document collection and archival workflows
- Equipment tracking and return coordination
- Consistent compliance for every departure
