Why automated screening changes the numbers

Most recruiting teams screen a fraction of the candidates who apply — not by choice, but because manual review doesn't scale. This calculator shows what changes when every applicant is assessed consistently: the time recovered, the cost difference, and the candidates your team would otherwise never reach. Adjust the inputs to reflect your team's actual volume, cost, and process.

Results are illustrative estimates based on the inputs provided. Actual savings will vary depending on your specific circumstances. This calculator does not constitute financial or legal advice. Automated screening tools should be used in accordance with applicable employment law, including the Equality Act 2010 and UK GDPR. Employers remain responsible for ensuring their screening processes are fair, transparent, and non-discriminatory. BeCareers does not accept liability for hiring decisions made on the basis of these projections.
