Let's Talk Recruit: Meet Zia, your all-in-one AI assistant


Welcome back to our Let's Talk Recruit series! Today, we are going to meet Zia, your all-in-one AI assistant. Let's delve into Zia's capabilities and explore how it takes tedious, time-consuming tasks off your plate.

What is Zia?

Zia is your AI companion within Zoho Recruit, designed to help you manage recruitment smartly. Offering predictive match scoring, dynamic job description generation, and AI-powered sourcing and screening chatbots, Zia optimises every step of the hiring journey.

How is Zia "all in one"?

Zia delivers AI-driven experiences across Zoho Recruit's platform in six key areas:

1. Identify your best matches 

When hundreds of candidates are in your Recruit account, finding the right ones can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. With Zia, that's no longer a problem.
Zia can predict the match probability of every candidate and assign a match score based on how well they fit the job. Instead of reviewing every resume, Zia finds the perfect fit for you.  Learn more about candidate matches

How this helps: 

☆ Consistent evaluation criteria across all candidates
☆ Reduced time-to-hire by eliminating manual resume screening

2. Find perfect job openings for your candidates

Not only does Zia help you find the right candidates, but it also makes sure your candidates find the right jobs! With job opening matches, Zia looks at your candidate's skills, experience, and preferences to assign a match score; then, it suggests the most suitable job opportunities for candidates. Learn more about job opening matches

How this helps: 

☆ Boosts candidate satisfaction by matching them with roles they’re genuinely interested in
☆ Increases placement rates by aligning candidates with the right opportunities
☆ Saves time by automating the job-candidate matching process

 3. Automate screening and sourcing  

Zia’s sourcing bot takes the grunt work out of recruitment by providing candidates with a chatbot for their job search. Candidates simply register on the portal, apply for jobs, and check their application status. It also saves recruiters time by handling these tasks automatically. Learn more about the sourcing bot
Zia also has a screening bot. Here's how it works: When candidates apply for a job, instead of you manually sifting through resumes to check if each candidate meets the basic requirements, the screening bot takes over. It acts as an automated first round of interviews, conducting pre-screening assessments that happen right after someone applies.  Learn more about the screening bot 

How this helps: 

☆ Frees you from repetitive administrative tasks☆ Gives you more time to focus on meaningful candidate interactions
☆ Offers a consistent screening process for all applicants

 4. Craft job descriptions in seconds 

The recruitment journey begins with writing an accurate job description. It should resonate with the company’s spirit and delineate the expectations and requirements of the role. Start by entering the key responsibilities—Zia can turn this data into an articulate job description within seconds.  Learn more about AI for job descriptions

How this helps:

☆ Enhances the quality of your job description by suggesting strong word choices and avoiding repetition
☆ Allows you to iterate until you’re satisfied with the additional options provided
