Ambea, a leading care provider with 35,000 employees across approximately 1,000 locations in Scandinavia, manages a high volume of job applications. Traditionally, managers have spent a significant amount of time screening CVs and conducting phone interviews, leading to increased administrative burden and challenges in evaluating candidates consistently. Ensuring a structured and fair recruitment process while maintaining a high standard of hiring was a key priority.

‍

Prioritized challenges in Ambeas daily operations included:

- The recruitment process for high-volume roles, such as nurses, was time-consuming and resource-intensive.

- Managers faced an increased workload due to manual CV screening and conducting phone interviews.

- There was a need for a more structured, skills-based selection process and a desire to minimize subjective evaluations in candidate selection.

‍

To address these challenges, Ambea has, following a successful pilot, implemented Hubert’s AI-driven recruitment solution in one of its largest business areas, Vardaga. The goal is to streamline the hiring process and introduce a competency-based approach. Key improvements noted during the pilot included:

• More structured, skills-based hiring, ensuring candidates were assessed on relevant qualifications.
• Reduced subjectivity in screening, leading to a fairer process.
• Improved candidate experience, ensuring all applicants received a structured and transparent evaluation. 

‍

The first implementation of Hubert in a pilot phase provided promising results:

Improved Candidate Experience – The majority of candidates rated their experience 10/10.
‍
Time Savings – Screening activities were reduced by 74%, allowing staff to focus on core responsibilities.
‍
Maintained Hiring Quality – The quality of selected candidates remained consistent with previous manual processes.

‍

Beyond optimizing efficiency, the introduction of Hubert has provided additional structure and clarity in the recruitment process. Managers now have a more streamlined way to evaluate candidates, reducing stress and administrative workload while maintaining a high standard in hiring.

Next Steps

Following the positive outcomes of the initial pilot, Ambea is now exploring further use of Hubert across its divisions in the Nordics, aiming to extend these benefits throughout the organization.
