"I used to dread Monday mornings when a job post went live. Now I actually look forward to it. Went from spending a full week shortlisting to having a ranked list in under an hour."
"We were drowning in 200+ applications for a senior engineer role. Sieve cut that pile to 8 genuinely strong candidates in about 20 minutes. Not an exaggeration."
"The DNA profiling is what makes it different. I set it up once per client and every batch of CVs comes back scored to their standards, not some generic checklist."
"The interview questions are better than what I'd come up with after two coffees and a night of prep. They reference exactly what's missing from each person's background."
"What used to take three weeks of back-and-forth now takes an afternoon. The structured summaries give everyone the same view of each candidate, which kills the usual debate."
"I'm a technical founder with zero HR experience. Sieve gave me the confidence to make data-backed hiring decisions without needing to bring in a recruiter first."
"Clients used to push back on shortlists constantly. Since we started using Sieve, the first shortlist is almost always accepted. The scoring just makes sense to people."
"We hired 12 people in Q1 using Sieve. I don't know how we'd have managed without it at that pace. It compressed what should've been months of screening into a few hours."
"The AI summary on each candidate is exactly what I'd want to write myself if I had two hours per person. Getting it in seconds is still a bit surreal if I'm honest."
"I screened 47 CVs for a sales role on a Saturday morning. Had a shortlist of 6 by lunchtime. One of those is now our best-performing rep. Still think about that sometimes."

"Cut our time-to-shortlist from three weeks to a couple of hours. The team couldn't believe we'd been doing it manually for so long. Felt a bit embarrassing honestly."
"Running an agency means I'm always worried about the quality vs. speed trade-off. Sieve is the first tool I've used that genuinely doesn't make me choose between the two."
"The screening emails are a small thing but they've saved me hours every week. Personalised to each candidate, ready to send in one click. That alone was worth signing up for."
"Honestly thought AI screening would feel cold and impersonal. The nuance in the evaluations surprised me. It reads CVs better than most of the humans I've worked with."
