Who Coo Is For

Coo is built for recruiters, talent acquisition teams, hiring managers, staffing teams, and growing companies that need to fill positions without spending hours manually searching for candidates.

The platform is particularly useful for fast-growing and high-volume hiring teams that need to build qualified candidate pipelines across multiple roles. It can also help companies reach passive candidates who are not actively applying through conventional job boards.

AI Candidate Sourcing

Coo acts as an AI sourcing agent by searching for candidates based on the requirements of an open position.

Hiring teams provide a hiring brief that includes the required skills, preferred experience, role context, and other important qualifications. Coo uses this information to identify professionals whose backgrounds align with the position.

This helps recruiters reduce the time spent manually searching profiles and allows them to begin with a more relevant group of potential candidates.

Active Candidate Search

Coo helps hiring teams discover active candidates who are currently looking for new employment opportunities.

The agent compares available candidate information with the hiring criteria and presents relevant matches for review. This gives recruiters a faster way to identify suitable applicants without manually reviewing a large number of unrelated profiles.

Passive Candidate Search

Coo can also identify passive candidates who may be qualified for a position but are not actively applying through job boards.

Its passive search provides access to more than 900 million professional profiles. This allows hiring teams to expand their search beyond active applicants and reach professionals who may be open to the right opportunity.

Candidate Matching and Qualification

Coo evaluates potential candidates using the requirements included in the hiring brief.

The agent considers resume information, professional experience, relevant skills, availability, intent, and overall alignment with the open position. It then presents stronger matches to the hiring team and explains why each candidate may be suitable for the role.

This qualification process helps recruiters focus on candidates who more closely match the position instead of manually reviewing every available profile.

Hiring Briefs

Hiring teams begin by defining what a suitable candidate should look like.

The hiring brief can include required skills, preferred experience, must-have qualifications, team context, and the current stage of the company. Coo uses these details to determine where to search and how potential candidates should be evaluated.

A detailed hiring brief gives the agent clearer criteria for sourcing and ranking candidates.

Candidate Profiles and Match Reasoning

Coo presents candidate profiles alongside information explaining why each person may fit the open position.

Recruiters can review a candidate’s experience, qualifications, and match reasoning before deciding whether to begin outreach or move the candidate into the next stage of the hiring process.

This gives hiring teams more context than a basic list of names and profiles.

Automated Recruiting Workflows

Coo automates the early stages of candidate sourcing and qualification.

Instead of requiring recruiters to repeatedly search databases, review profiles, and compare candidate backgrounds with job requirements, the agent handles much of the discovery process. Hiring teams can then spend more time engaging candidates, conducting interviews, and making hiring decisions.
