How Talent Bridge tripled recruiter productivity in 90 days
“Placr didn’t just replace our ATS. It replaced the busywork that was burning out our best recruiters. Now they spend their time on relationships, not data entry.”
Marcus Reid
Founder & CEO, Talent Bridge
Talent Bridge’s team of 12 recruiters was spending over 40% of their time on administrative tasks: parsing CVs, updating spreadsheets, chasing client feedback via email, and manually matching candidates to roles. Their legacy ATS had become a bottleneck rather than an enabler. With growing competition for tech talent, they needed to move faster without burning out their team.
After evaluating five platforms, Talent Bridge chose Placr for its AI-native architecture and frictionless candidate experience. Migration took 10 days. Within the first week, recruiters reported spending 3 fewer hours per day on admin tasks. The AI matching engine surfaced qualified candidates within seconds of a new role being posted, and the Client Portal reduced average feedback time from 5 days to 18 hours.
