KF Recruit allows you to build predictable, scalable talent pipelines with less effort by utilizing success profiles, assessments, pay data, and other advanced criteria. All of this can be integrated with your ATS, HRIS, and other systems, creating a seamless process.
Building a quality workforce begins with insight. Korn Ferry Recruit’s Success Profiles help you visualize the ideal candidate for your role. Our market insights give you geographic candidate supply, top employers, salary, and time to fill data. The result: you know where the best talent for your role lives, and you can create a more comprehensive data-driven sourcing strategy.
Korn Ferry Recruit identifies both passive and active candidates, scanning over 550 million public profiles, past applicants in your applicant tracking system, and your current employees interested in career change. Korn Ferry Recruit also finds hard to reach candidates from a multitude of sources, including niche industry and trade association databases. It’s available in over 90 countries and multiple languages.
A failed hire can cost you big. Our proven assessments help you pinpoint the competencies, experiences, traits, and drivers for any given role, from entry-level to executive. Use realistic previews during the sourcing process to see if passive candidates are a good fit. Use the included interview guides for structured unbiased interviewing. Once a candidate applies, use the standard pre-hire assessments to enhance employee retention, or access Korn Ferry Select to get an even better picture.
We've consolidated pay data, job descriptions, candidate supply, and other success criteria for thousands of roles into one sourcing, candidate relationship management, and strategic planning solution, saving time and cost over implementing individual systems. Integrating with your applicant tracking system (ATS) ensures a seamless experience from source through hire.
Recruiters spend nearly one-third of their work hours sourcing candidates. Optimize the recruiter and candidate experience by automating & accelerating manual processes while making sure you get the right candidates.
Filled with candidate sourcing tools and built on best practices for sourcing candidates, Korn Ferry Recruit uses AI to optimize busy recruiters’ time, aiding them by sourcing high-quality candidates and automating repetitive tasks. The platform does so by aligning recruiters’ needs to four core pillars: source, plan, assess, and insights.
The foundation of Korn Ferry Recruit is its powerful data. More than 4 billion data points, collected from more than 550 million passive and active candidate profiles stored on over 350 servers, are analyzed with AI recruiting technology and machine learning to help businesses improve their recruitment sourcing strategies. Organizations can also search their existing applicant tracking system (ATS) or candidate relationship management (CRM) databases for potential candidates, including past applicants and current employees looking to make a career change. We also have access to unique candidate sourcing tools to find hard-to-reach candidates from numerous places, including niche industry databases and public and private trade association sites. Korn Ferry Recruit is available in multiple languages and in more than 90 countries, ensuring that we can help you find the candidates you’re looking for in any location around the globe.
These candidate profiles are then matched with one of our 4,000 Success Profiles across 30,000 job titles to identify and predict which potential candidates are the best fit for the role. A Success Profile is more than a job description: it helps organizations understand what an ideal candidate looks like for a particular job. It combines decades of data that we’ve collected on the job functions of a given role with the skills, competencies, traits, and experiences that successful candidates are likely to possess so you can source the strongest candidates.
Korn Ferry Recruit delivers important benefits for your organization’s recruitment sourcing strategies at three levels: manager, recruiter, and candidate.

When your recruiter is ready to hire for a role, they type the name of the role into the Korn Ferry Recruit search box. If it matches an existing Success Profile, Recruit returns the profile—which the recruiter can also use as a job description. (Likely, your organization already has connected its HRIS with Recruit, so the AI engine will have already analyzed your roles and matched them to Korn Ferry’s extensive library of Success Profiles.) This process also helps normalize the nomenclature across your organization, so, regardless of how various departments and recruiters name a role, you have standardized data based on the job functions and can get insights into how you’ve hired in the past.
Once you’ve chosen a Success Profile, our AI recruiting algorithm starts sourcing candidates on approximately 300 public and private job sites—including more than 550 million public profiles and nearly 3 million candidate profiles—to find people who match your ideal candidate description. We look everywhere for public profile descriptions, including more than 70 social media and artifact sites, industry websites, and trade association groups. The engine then returns candidates, ranking them by how closely they match the Success Profile, to form a candidate pool and reduce bias in candidate selection.
Recruiters can then use advanced candidate sourcing tools to winnow candidates in the pool and shortlist top contenders. Throughout this process, the AI recruiting algorithm continuously learns from the recruiter’s decision-making and starts bringing new people into the pool who resemble the selected candidates. Korn Ferry Recruit learns through neural networks, which are algorithms that mimic the way the human brain operates, to recognize the relationships underpinning a set of data. This helps Korn Ferry Recruit refine its candidate searches over time not only for the particular role but also for the organization as a whole.
As a result, Korn Ferry Recruit’s search algorithms deliver three times more qualified candidates. And, with every search, Recruit gets smarter, using AI recruiting technology to take your feedback into account.
Recruiters spend nearly one-third of their working hours sourcing candidates. In fact, a recruiter spends 13 hours sourcing candidates for the average role.
But with Korn Ferry Recruit, repetitive and manual recruiting processes become a thing of the past. For example, organizations can use Korn Ferry Recruit’s AI recruiting technology and automation and integration features to expedite the sourcing process.
As a result, recruiters become more productive, because they can source candidates in seconds, not hours or days.
Organizations that use Korn Ferry Recruit enjoy a range of benefits from its candidate sourcing tools:
