Betterleap Unveils Ai-Powered Search To Help Recruiters Source Top Talent

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Betterleap, an AI-powered outbound recruiting platform, today announced new natural language search (NLS) capabilities for recruiters. With Betterleap NLS, recruiters can describe their hiring goals in their own words, such as “I need a software engineer who has at least eight years of experience, knows Python, and works within 40 minutes of the Google HQ campus” and let Betterleap automatically create a search. Recruiters can then expand or narrow down search results using filters to find new candidates that might otherwise be overlooked. “The integration of NLS into Betterleap is the next step of innovation in using AI for recruiting,” said Khaled Hussein, CEO and co-founder of Betterleap. “Now recruiters can go beyond simply generating job descriptions or email templates with AI, to quickly discovering and reaching top talent specific to the role they are hiring for. The combination of NLS and comprehensive, advanced filters truly takes talent sourcing to a whole new level.”
