The challenge
r2c2.ai's founder, San Wong, started out sceptical about AI-powered recruitment — a fair position, given how much of it amounts to keyword matching dressed up as intelligence. Scepticism is the honest default here, and the only thing that settles it is who actually turns up in the interview.
The approach
The shortlist was the test. Roles were briefed in plain English; Talent Summoner's agent searched the open market and ranked candidates against the stated requirements — including the parts of a brief that are not keywords. r2c2.ai interviewed the names that came back.
The result
Every candidate the team interviewed was genuinely qualified and well-matched to the company culture. On that basis r2c2.ai made Talent Summoner its exclusive recruitment partner.
