The problem

ArrayTalent hires software, infrastructure and product engineers for tech companies. Their sourcers found candidates on LinkedIn, added them one by one to a contact tool, then judged each profile against the role by eye.

Each sourcer added roughly 50 to 60 candidates a day. As Tom Wetwood, the owner, put it on our first call: "Everything's basically manual." When a client wanted more hires, the only answer was another sourcer.

What we built

One system that runs the sourcing end to end, with the team approving anything that matters.

  • Searches run from the dashboard and pull matching LinkedIn profiles in bulk
  • AI scores every profile against the role, with written pros and cons, and learns from each approve or decline the team makes
  • Shortlisted candidates get contact details found automatically and go straight into Lemlist outreach
  • Replies land in one inbox, sorted, with the next step drafted for a recruiter to send

The result

  • 287,882 candidates scored and 105,674 shortlisted, across 5,161 searches
  • Work that would have taken about 29,900 hours by hand
  • An estimated £447k in sourcer time, after scraping costs

That's the dashboard's own estimate, tracked on every run. It uses ArrayTalent's sourcer rate of £15 an hour, plus our assumption of 5.5 minutes to review a profile by hand (from their sourcers' 50 to 60 a day) and 2 more minutes to enrich each shortlisted one.

The quality holds up too. One candidate the system scored 92 was offered the role, and the AI-drafted replies to candidates hold their own:

"Where does Reply with AI get its context from? It's just really blown me away. A candidate from Meta said something along the lines of, 'Why should I be interested in working for Fluidstack over Meta?' And the response was perfect."

"I'm actually really impressed. I've added some random job specs in from other companies and the rubric pulls in relevant target companies (competitors, companies that offer similar services etc.)"
