In recruiting, speed isn’t just nice to have — it’s everything. Employers expect a short list of qualified candidates in as little as two hours, and even a 48-hour delay can send business to faster competitors.
To find the right candidates for open roles, Adecco’s 1,400 recruiters spent hours updating candidate information, tailoring job descriptions, and preparing job campaigns, interview questions, summaries, and reports. A single job campaign alone took an average of three to four hours to pull together. Because these essential tasks were largely time-consuming and manual, they left less time for recruiters to focus on the most meaningful part of their work: building relationships.
With Agentforce, AI agents powered by the Salesforce Agentic Enterprise Architecture, recruiters can now complete essential work without getting bogged down in manual processes or switching between multiple tools. Agentforce works seamlessly within Agentforce Sales, the platform they use every day to automate key steps of the recruiting lifecycle:
Recruiters now move from idea to live campaign in just 10–15 minutes — reducing prep time by more than 93%. Flex prompt templates further streamline their day, drafting emails, writing job descriptions, updating candidate and job records after calls, and transforming emails or conversations into job demand records with a single click.
Behind the scenes, nearly 830,000 secure LLM calls run each month across the Salesforce Agentic Enterprise Architecture to power generative AI and agent actions — all translating to a 28% faster end-to-end hiring process, stronger fill rates, and better quality of hire scores.
Because their data and workflows were already built in Salesforce, Adecco could embed Agentforce into the tools recruiters use every day. “Agentforce augments everything we've already built and gives us more room for the human element we bring to the mix,” said Greg Shewmaker, SVP of Global Operations and AI.
The Trust Layer allows the company to use AI within a secure environment by protecting candidate and client data at every step. All data processing adheres to Salesforce Trust policies and international regulations, including GDPR and CCPA, and audit trails for AI-generated recommendations and actions provide transparency and accountability.
Agentforce engages candidates as soon as they apply, capturing key details and surfacing top matches so recruiters can prioritize the strongest fits.
Data 360 harmonizes candidate and client details into comprehensive profiles, powering real-time KPIs, smarter matching, and cross-region visibility.
