Aleris' high-volume recruitment process contained several manual steps, including a knowledge test that could only be administered twice a week on location. This created long waiting times, heavy administrative load, and a process that was difficult to scale. With application volumes rising, Aleris needed an AI recruitment solution that could deliver a faster, more professional candidate experience but without sacrificing quality or human judgment.

Aleris deployed AI structured interviews with Hubert so that every candidate completes a competency-based screening interview at the first point of application. Recruiters receive ranked recommendations directly in their ATS, giving them everything they need to build a shortlist. Because Hubert's models are deterministic, every recommendation is consistent, explainable, and fully auditable – built for organizations where responsible hiring isn't optional.

Key capabilities that drove the decision:

• Structured AI interviews at scale where every is candidate screened consistently, 24/7, from any device
• ATS integration with results and recommendations delivered directly into Teamtailor
• HubertDetect™ feature that automatically flags AI-generated responses
• Human-in-the-loop by design: Hubert recommends but the recruiter always makes the final decision

Since this solution needed to be implemented fast, Hubert was the natural choice. From signing to going live, it only took five working days. 

Since deploying Hubert, Aleris has replaced a manual, bottlenecked screening process with a scalable, structured hiring flow. Hubert has delivered measurable results across efficiency, cost, and candidate experience:

• 88% interview completion rate
• 67% of candidates completed the interview on mobile
• 9/10 candidate satisfaction score

Candidate experience was a priority for the Aleris team and the resulting data delivered. At the end of every AI interview, candidates rate their experience consistently scoring Hubert 9/10. Candidates describe the process as relevant, flexible, and stress-free - particularly the ability to complete it at any time, anywhere.

Here are what two candidates had to say: 

"The interview was clear, easy to follow, and the questions were relevant to the role. Being able to answer at my own pace, directly in the chat, felt great." — CSAT 10/10

"Relevant questions that made you stop and think. That can be a challenge, but it's also very valuable." — CSAT 9/10

What sets Hubert apart from generic AI recruiting tools is how it's built. Rather than automating decisions, Hubert uses deterministic, competency-based models that give every candidate a fair, consistent screening experience, while also keeping the hiring decision firmly with the recruiter. For an organization like Aleris, that distinction matters.
