On 1 November 2026, CareOS launched Recruit AI, its recruitment module. Recruit AI runs a hire from vacancy to a staff record with its compliance pack already tracked. It can run inside a CareOS care account, or on its own for a recruitment agency.
Who it is for
Recruit AI is for care providers hiring their own staff, care recruitment agencies, sponsor-licensed employers, and groups with several branches or care settings.
What it covers
• Vacancies, published to your own careers site with source-tagged links, so you can see which channel produced each hire.
• One application form, built once, with the pages each job role is asked chosen by role.
• CVs that pre-fill applications. Uploaded certificates are checked against the course, name and dates, and anything unclear is flagged for a person, never rejected automatically.
• Your own pipeline stages, with time in each stage measured against the targets you set.
• Screening questions and online tests, with knockout answers handled separately from the pass mark. Free-text answers always go to a person.
• Interviews booked from the candidate record. Recordings and transcripts can be collected where the provider allows it, after the candidate is told.
• Offers with an approval chain. An offer cannot be sent until the chain clears, and revised terms make a new offer.
• Compliance packs that say what each job role must evidence and when, with right to work and DBS records.
• For sponsor-licensed employers, a certificate of sponsorship register, visa expiry monitoring and a log of reporting duties.
• Onboarding through contracts, induction, mandatory training, payroll details and roster readiness, ending at Clear to Work.
• Messages by email, SMS and WhatsApp to a stage or shortlist, with a marketing opt-out candidates can use themselves.
• Reports on where candidates drop out, which channel produced them and what a hire cost. An unknown figure is shown as unknown, not as zero.
The AI recommends and a person decides
Recruit AI uses AI to draft application forms and advert copy, to read uploaded CVs and certificates, and to draft interview scores. It recommends. It never rejects a candidate, moves one through a stage or signs anything off on its own. Certificate issues, free-text answers and interview scores go to a person.
