General Motors saves over $2 million in recruiting costs and reduces time-to-schedule from 5 days to 29 minutes with EV-e AI scheduling

The problem

GM needed to rapidly scale recruiting for new EV and technology talent while its recruitment coordinator team was spending too much time on manual interview scheduling — looking at calendars, chasing candidates down, and rescheduling interviews last minute.
