Automated candidate sourcing that ranks before you read
Automated candidate sourcing should give you back time, not a longer list to triage. HireAgent runs sourcing as an agent: it searches against your role brief, screens out poor fits, and ranks the rest, so the busywork happens before you open anything.

The result is a scored shortlist with candidate cards that each carry an evidence-backed match score, a why-they-fit rationale, a pipeline status pill and a personalized outreach draft. The agent then reaches out and schedules, with AI disclosed and opt-outs respected, while you keep the final hiring decision at every stage.
For the buyer-side comparison of search tooling, see AI candidate sourcing, which covers how an agent-driven search differs from a static boolean string.
