Common challenges recruitment & staffing businesses face without automation.

Recruiters spend hours screening unqualified CVs that don't meet basic requirements — a massive time sink on high-volume roles

Candidates ghost on interview bookings because they forget or found another opportunity, wasting consultant time

Coordinating interview schedules between candidates, hiring managers, and consultants involves endless WhatsApp messages

Good candidates get placed by competitors because your response time is too slow when you're juggling 30+ open roles

Frequently asked questions

How does a WhatsApp chatbot work for recruitment & staffing?

Raimond's AI-powered chatbot connects to your WhatsApp Business number and handles customer conversations automatically. For recruitment & staffing, this means the bot asks qualifying questions — experience, salary expectations, availability, location — and scores candidates before a recruiter ever sees the cv.. The bot is trained on your specific business information, pricing, and policies.

How much does a recruitment & staffing chatbot cost?

Raimond costs R10,000/month — everything included. No setup fees, no lock-in contracts. You can build and test your bot for free in our sandbox before paying anything. Compare that to hiring a customer service agent at R15,000-R30,000/month who only works 40 hours a week.

Can the chatbot handle voice notes?

Yes. Raimond automatically transcribes voice notes and responds to them just like text messages. This is especially important in South Africa where many customers prefer sending voice messages over typing.

Is it POPIA compliant?

Absolutely. Raimond includes full POPIA compliance features: data encryption, audit trails, configurable data retention policies, and the ability to process deletion requests. Your recruitment & staffing customers' data is protected.
