DBS Bank
JIM virtual recruiter for candidate screening
DBS launched JIM after over 90% of surveyed applicants gave positive feedback
Problem
Recruiters spent time collecting applicant information and answering emails before interviews. Candidates' daytime commitments also pushed recruitment work outside normal hours.
Approach
DBS and Impress.AI built an AI recruiter for wealth planning manager recruitment. A pilot began in April 2018 before the June launch. JIM reviewed resumes, collected screening answers and administered psychometric assessments, with candidate interaction available around the clock.
Results
Takeaway
DBS automated work before the recruiter interview. Applicant feedback supported the experience, but the launch announcement described time savings as an expectation.
