Share

Yello has introduced its latest AI Campus Recruiting Agent, a major feature of its platform aimed at helping employers ramp up their early talent acquisition efforts by automating the most time consuming recruitment tasks and getting better hiring results.

This innovative talent hiring tool will radically change campus recruiting method that are still relying on recruiters to go to job fairs and hope to attract the right candidates. With this rollout, Yello plans to make the whole process more data-based and proactive. The AI agent is capable of finding the right candidates, arranging communication, making interview appointments before recruitment events, and even helping with event management so that recruiter is involved more with candidate interaction instead of doing paperwork.

Per the company, the platform enables businesses to show up at college career fairs with their interview schedules prepared in advance featuring candidates who have been matched to the job openings. The new system also alleviates the manual work connected with sourcing, scheduling, and prioritizing candidates, which typically take a lot of time and other resources.

“Campus recruiting teams need solutions purpose-built for early talent instead of using the same solutions their experienced recruiting peers use,” said Michael Megerian, Chief Revenue Officer at Yello. “Yello has always been purpose-built for early talent. We transformed campus recruiting a decade ago, and now we’re doing it again — bringing the ROI campus recruiting has always been waiting for and enabling faster hiring decisions, reduced manual work, and measurable returns tied to hiring outcomes across campus and experienced roles and onsite and virtual events. Employers can fill their roles with top talent while reducing waste by attending fewer events, sending smaller teams, and cutting travel expenses.”

Yello says the launch addresses growing pressure on talent acquisition teams to demonstrate measurable returns from campus recruiting investments. Instead of tracking success through metrics such as resumes collected or the number of campuses visited, the platform emphasizes outcomes tied directly to hiring efficiency and candidate quality.

“For years, campus recruiting success has been measured in activity like the number of schools visited, candidates met, and resumes collected. But activity was never the goal. Hiring the right people is,” said Dan Bartfield, Co-Founder and CEO of Yello. “Yello Campus Recruiting Agent reorients everything around outcomes. Your team spends less time on admin work and more time with the candidates who actually fit your open roles. You show up to events prepared, not hoping. And for the first time, you can tie every event dollar to a hire.”
