But with [AI-powered tools, like FoveaAI](https://www.foveaai.com), the process has transformed. Recruiters and HR professionals can now identify the best candidates from larger talent pools in minutes, not hours, leaving more time for strategic, human-centric work like building relationships. ## Finding Better Candidates The need to submit candidates quickly has created a situation where recruiters typically submit the first candidates they find that meet the minimum requirements. However, these are not necessarily the best candidates for the role. > Using AI, recruiters can evaluate an entire talent pool, identify the top candidates, and immediately begin outreach or interviews — in minutes. ## Workflow Example Let's look at an example of how AI can both accelerate and improve the sourcing process using LinkedIn: 1. **Import candidates automatically:** AI tools, such as [FoveaAI's browser extension](https://www.foveaai.com), can parse and import hundreds of candidate profiles from LinkedIn or other job boards in seconds. This saves hours of work. ![Parsing LinkedIn Candidates Screenshot](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Parsing%20LinkedIn%20Candidates%20Screenshot.png?width=2638&height=1595&name=Parsing%20LinkedIn%20Candidates%20Screenshot.png) 2. **Evaluate the best fits:** AI platforms, like [FoveaAI's custom evaluation algorithm](https://www.foveaai.com#evaluate), rank candidates based on key criteria such as experience, skills, and job fit. A 2023 LinkedIn report noted that **68% of recruiters believe AI has helped them improve candidate quality while reducing manual work**. ![Screenshot 2024-12-19 at 11.40.31 AM](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.40.31%20AM.png?width=2672&height=1622&name=Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.40.31%20AM.png) 3. **Get deep candidate insight:** FoveaAI dives deep into a candidate's resume and job fit to [extract strengths and weaknesses](https://www.foveaai.com#ats-connection), technical experience, custom interview questions, and overall job-fit score eliminating time spent reviewing resumes that do not fit. ![Screenshot 2024-12-19 at 11.40.56 AM](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.40.56%20AM.png?width=2672&height=1622&name=Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.40.56%20AM.png) 4. **Generate personalized outreach:** AI assistants, like [FoveaAI Intelligent Messages](https://www.foveaai.com#candidate-outreach), generate engaging, InMail messages and emails highly personalized for each candidate. LinkedIn’s InMail data shows that **personalized messages are 40% more likely to receive a response** than generic ones. ![Screenshot 2024-12-19 at 11.42.23 AM](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.42.23%20AM.png?width=2672&height=1622&name=Screenshot%202024-12-19%20at%2011.42.23%20AM.png) ## Better Candidates, Less Effort The entire sourcing process — importing candidates, ranking them, and sending personalized outreach — can now be completed in minutes. Recruiters can focus on strategic tasks, interviews, and closing candidates, rather than getting lost in administrative workflows. > According to a recent report by SHRM, **AI adoption has cut sourcing times by up to 50% for many companies**, allowing hiring teams to fill positions faster and stay ahead in a competitive market. ## Focus on People, Not Tasks AI sourcing tools are not just about speed — they’re about smart decisions. With AI's ability to analyze candidate pools and optimize outreach, **recruiters can confidently focus on the right candidates** without sacrificing efficiency. ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fblog.foveaai.com%2Fblog%2Fsource-better-candidates-linkedin-ai](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fblog.foveaai.com%2Fblog%2Fsource-better-candidates-linkedin-ai) ## Keep reading ### [![](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Depositphotos_161654922_S.jpg?width=1000&height=667&name=Depositphotos_161654922_S.jpg) AI Business Leadership Rethinking Effort: Why Time Isn’t the Real Measure of Work](https://blog.foveaai.com/blog/rethinking-effort-why-time-isnt-the-real-measure-of-work) ### [![](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Depositphotos_35644451_S.jpg?width=1000&height=750&name=Depositphotos_35644451_S.jpg) AI Technology Business Are Misspelled Words the Last Stand of Being Human?](https://blog.foveaai.com/blog/are-misspelled-words-the-last-stand-of-being-human) ![FoveaAI White Logo](https://blog.foveaai.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FoveaAI%20White%20Logo.png?width=220&height=45&name=FoveaAI%20White%20Logo.png "FoveaAI White Logo") [www.FoveaAI.com](https://www.foveaai.com) © 2024, FoveaAI LLC.
