    Challenge

    Two recruiters were drowning under 800+ applications per quarter for analyst and operations roles. Time-to-shortlist had crept past 9 days, and three offers were lost to faster competitors.

    What they did

    Northwind connected TenPerZent in week one, imported a backlog of 2,400 historical CVs into the talent pool, and routed all new applications through AI screening with a 75% match threshold for auto-shortlist.

    "We cut first-stage screening from two days to twenty minutes. My recruiters now actually talk to candidates instead of reading PDFs."

    Challenge

    Helix needed to fill 14 specialist science roles in six months but had no in-house ATS — everything ran in shared inboxes and a Notion board, with critical CVs routinely lost in threads.

    What they did

    They moved their entire careers page to the TenPerZent job board, used AI Required-Skills enforcement to gate applications, and adopted the seven-status pipeline as their single source of truth.

    "The ranked shortlist is the killer feature. I open the results in the morning and I know exactly who to call first."

    Challenge

    Boutique agency handling 25–30 active mandates simultaneously. Reviewing applications across all clients consumed roughly 60% of weekly recruiter capacity.

    What they did

    Each client became a workspace; CVs are bulk-uploaded per role, screened in minutes, and shared with the client via a public shortlist link with hidden internal scores.

    "Screened 412 CVs for a single role in under three minutes. Last quarter that would have been an entire week of one of my recruiters."
