Before Reerac, the team triaged CVs in shared spreadsheets and lived in WhatsApp threads. After eight weeks, time-to-hire dropped from 31 days to 12, without expanding the recruiting team.

The rollout in three phases

  • Week 1–2: Define blueprints for the 4 highest-volume roles
  • Week 3–5: Async interviews for screening; live for finalists
  • Week 6–8: Scorecards shared with hiring managers; spreadsheets retired
