Take2 AI

UCHealth deployed Take2 AI's AI agents to handle candidate screening for critical nursing positions. Now 81% of job applicants get a UCHealth touchpoint seconds after they apply, and most candidates complete their phone screen within within 80 minutes of their application. For one of the largest academic health systems in the country, this is a GAME-CHANGING statistic. I am proud of this quote from Ryan Toedtman, Manager, Talent Acquisition & Human Resources AI Integration Lead at UCHealth. When UCHealth came to us, they were clear about the goal: make a strong candidate experience even stronger. Not automation for automation's sake – making sure no applicant sits in silence between "apply" and "first conversation." Candidates now hear from UCHealth immediately. Screening is consistent and scalable, and it allows recruiters to focus on building relationship with qualified applicants they actually WANT to hire. This is exactly why we built Take2. It’s incredible seeing our partners at UChealth raise the bar on candidate experience with agentic AI! Read the full UCHealth case study here: https://lnkd.in/g7_kDyNA

I spoke on stage at LEAP HR Healthcare alongside Rachel Howard, PHR, the Chief People Officer at Health Connect America. Rachel said something very powerful that I keep coming back to: "Faster, lower cost, better fit, better experience. Those four things don't usually move together, and in my 25 years in HR, Take2 has been the only partner that has really moved all these metrics in the same direction, at the same time." Here's what our AI agents helped HCA achieve: 📉 12 days cut from time-to-hire 📈  79% retention for AI agent-screened candidates vs. 66% for the rest 💲 Cost per quality applicant down 13.8% – quality applicant volume up 12.6% Here's what makes HCA's story unique: HCA serves children and families in crisis across 10 states. Behavioral health. 68% annual turnover. Some of the hardest roles in healthcare to fill. Rachel said it better than I can – an unfilled therapist position isn't a productivity problem. It's a child waiting for care. That's the problem we built Take2 to solve. Not just faster hiring – faster hiring that doesn’t trade off quality of hire or candidate experience – it improves both.

Healthcare recruiting hasn't changed much in 30 years. Applicant applies → Recruiter eyeballs the resume → Schedules a phone screen → Conducts the call → Takes notes → Passes to hiring manager → Repeat. And after all that effort? Maybe 3-4% of job applicants are touched. What happens when you bring our AI agents to the mix? Registered Nurse applies on the weekend → 5 seconds later, they get a phone call from our AI agent, tailored to their resume and to the job description, and trained on healthcare hiring data → By Monday morning, the hiring team has thousands of call recordings, scorecards, and reports sitting in their ATS systems, and hiring manager interviews are already scheduled. That's what happens! The result: 85% of applicants get screened. 2x faster time-to-fill. Candidate rating of 4.7/5. The future of recruiting isn’t recruiters working harder. It’s AI agents handling the repetitive work, so recruiters can focus on building relationships, making decisions, and closing qualified candidates. We presented this live at American Society for Healthcare Human Resources Administration (ASHHRA) 2026. The full session is worth watching if you're leading Talent Acquisition at a healthcare organization. 🎥 Watch the full session → https://lnkd.in/eqrk7cKK

Talent acquisition leaders come to us skeptical that an AI interviewer can deliver a great candidate experience for healthcare candidates. Then they hear the demo. Then they see a 4.8/5 candidate satisfaction score after millions of calls. At Eventus WholeHealth, a physician told their recruiting director after a Take2 screening call: "It felt like I was talking to a live person." That's the bar we set when we built Take2's AI Interviewer. In healthcare recruiting, the screening call isn't just a filter – it's a first impression of your organization. Get it wrong and you've already lost the candidate. When the experience is right, the outcomes follow: 4.8/5 candidate satisfaction, 63% of screens completed outside business hours, and a median app-to-screened time of 37 minutes. Recruiters stop managing logistics and get back to the work that actually fills roles. Mark Crane, Director of TA at Eventus WholeHealth, shared how AI agents have reshaped his recruiting operation.

Healthcare's recruiting playbook hasn't changed in decades! Phone tag. Manual screening. Stacks of applications nobody gets back to. Recruiters spending 70% of their time on logistics, and only 30% on actually connecting with candidates. Recruiting is still running the same plays it's been running for years. One of our customers, Jeff Battinus the Head of TA at Dental Care Alliance, put it to me bluntly recently: "I've been waiting for the time we can stop recruiting like it's the '70s." He's not waiting anymore! Take2 AI's agents helped DCA boost time-to-fill, improve quality of hire, and the substantial budget savings that used to go to overhead, now go to better patient care. → Jeff shared his full story on our podcast.
