Candidate Rediscovery Agent — Surface Hidden Pipeline Matches
The Candidate Rediscovery Agent runs in the background, matching your candidate graph against every active search — surfacing candidates you already know who fit mandates you haven't thought to connect them to yet.
The value already in your pipeline
A recruiter who has been placing for three years has a candidate graph worth far more than its current utilization suggests. Hundreds of qualified individuals who didn't get the role they interviewed for, who passed on an offer, who weren't right for one search but would be right for another. Without a systematic way to match that history to new mandates, it sits dormant.
The Candidate Rediscovery Agent changes that equation. It continuously evaluates every candidate in your graph against every active search you're running — assigning a fit score, surfacing the match for your review, and prompting a context-aware re-engagement suggestion when the fit is strong.
What the Candidate Rediscovery Agent does
Continuous graph-to-mandate matching
Runs automatically in the background. As new mandates activate and candidates are added to your graph, matches are identified and surfaced without manual intervention.
Relationship-context scoring
Match scores incorporate relationship context: last contact date, prior placement outcome, response history, and engagement warmth — prioritizing re-engagements most likely to land.
Career signal enrichment
The agent monitors candidates for career signal changes — new role, company news, tenure milestone — that indicate heightened openness to outreach.
Re-engagement suggestion generation
For strong matches, the agent drafts a recruiter-reviewed re-engagement suggestion with relationship context and role-specific framing.
Candidate Rediscovery workflow
Candidate graph + active mandates → continuous matching → recruiter-reviewed re-engagement suggestions.
Inputs, outputs, and workflow connection
- 01
Inputs
Your candidate CRM graph and all active mandate briefs. The agent runs on every new mandate activation and on weekly graph re-scans.
- 02
Processing
Fit scoring against mandate requirements weighted by relationship context — stronger relationships with better fit surface first.
- 03
Output
Recruiter-facing rediscovery queue: matched candidates ranked by fit + relationship score, with re-engagement suggestion drafts.
- 04
Workflow connection
Approved re-engagements flow into the Outreach Copilot queue for message drafting and sending.
Rediscovery impact metrics
Questions, answered
How often does the Candidate Rediscovery Agent scan my graph?
Automatically on every new mandate activation, and on a weekly full-graph scan. You can also trigger a manual scan at any time.
Does the agent contact candidates directly?
No. The agent surfaces matches and drafts re-engagement suggestions for recruiter review. No outreach is sent without recruiter approval.
Will it surface the same candidate repeatedly if I haven't acted on a match?
Yes, with decay. A match that hasn't been actioned within 30 days is re-surfaced with updated context. After three non-actions, it moves to a lower-priority queue.
