Thinkings Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Akatsuki Takizawa) is pleased to announce that "sonar ATS by HRMOS" (hereinafter "sonar ATS"), its provided applicant tracking system, has started API integration with "AI RECOMEN," an AI interview tool provided by i-enter Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yasuhiro Irie).
This integration allows companies to efficiently manage everything from selection guidance and progress to confirmation of selection results on "sonar ATS." Furthermore, candidates can seamlessly begin the selection process with "AI RECOMEN" through "sonar ATS."
About "AI RECOMEN"
"AI RECOMEN" is an AI interview tool that allows job seekers to conduct interviews 24 hours a day, anytime, anywhere, using their smartphones or PCs. The AI analyzes facial expressions, voice, and answers, and automatically generates evaluation reports.
It supports the reduction of man-hours for interview scheduling and initial interviews, providing an environment where recruiters can focus on assessing candidates and motivating them. Recorded data can be reviewed repeatedly and utilized for multi-person evaluations and sharing selection criteria.
Background of API Integration
With a predicted shortage of up to approximately 11 million workers by 2040*, labor shortage is an unavoidable structural challenge for companies. In this situation, to succeed in recruitment activities, an increasing number of companies are combining multiple HR services such as AI interview tools and aptitude tests.
AI interviews, in particular, are gaining attention as a means to reduce the burden on both candidates and companies, as selection can be conducted regardless of location or time. On the other hand, the combined use of tools also creates a challenge where candidate information and selection results are scattered across various services, making management and corresponding with candidates complicated.
To address such challenges, "sonar ATS" is promoting integration with external services. Through this integration, it aims to centralize candidate information and selection status, and realize smooth selection even when utilizing multiple tools for recruitment activities. Based on this background and user needs, the API integration between "AI RECOMEN" and "sonar ATS" has now been realized.
