Traditional hiring processes are often inefficient, relying heavily on resume screening and manual processes, leading to wasted time and potential biases. This can result in a limited candidate pool and increased time-to-hire, hindering a company's ability to secure top talent quickly. Furthermore, language barriers can exclude qualified candidates, limiting diversity and accessibility in the hiring process.
