Stop screening. Start matching. Go beyond CVs.
Application volumes have tripled. CVs are AI-generated. Get Ikigai gives your team the tools to manage twice the volume — at higher quality — without adding headcount.
AI-generated CVs have broken classic screening.
400 applications land, 380 look the same, and the 20 that might fit are buried. Hiring managers keep sending unicorn wishlists, and nobody checks whether the person you need already works here.
FK-Briefer: 30-minute AI chat with hiring manager → graded role profile + reality check + headcount business case. Smart Apply: conversational qualification replaces CV-based screening. Screening time drops 80%.
- Screening time per role: 20h → 4h (80% reduction)
- Chat completion rate: 20–40% → 80%+
- Recruiter capacity: 15–25 roles → 30–50 (doubled)
- Internal candidates considered: rarely → always first
Briefings, done right the first time
A guided AI conversation turns the hiring manager’s fuzzy wishlist into a graded role profile — with a reality check on must-haves vs. nice-to-haves and a headcount business case ready for the CFO.
Once the brief is clean, matching starts — internal first.
Candidate review that sees through the CV
Ranked shortlist built from deep interview data, not keyword salad. Internal candidates surface next to external ones, with clear reasons for every match and every gap.
And this is what the external applicant actually experiences — no form, no CV gymnastics.
How candidates apply — in conversation, not forms
Smart Apply replaces the CV upload with a 10-minute AI conversation. Completion rates double, AI-generated CVs stop working, and you get structured, comparable data on every applicant.
The job-to-be-done
Double your capacity without doubling your team.
You own the pipeline quality, the time-to-fill, and the cost-per-hire — across a shrinking market, rising volumes, and hiring managers who expect miracles. The job is to fill roles faster and better, with the team you already have.
The pain today
- AI-generated CVs break keyword screening. Everything passes, nothing signals. Your ATS is a lottery.
- Hiring managers bring unicorn wishlists. You spend weeks renegotiating must-haves before a single candidate is approached.
- Internal talent is invisible. You post externally because you have no reliable view of who internally could do the job.
- Coordination eats the week. Chasing managers, scheduling, and status updates leave no time for actual sourcing.
