Brainner Pilot Program: How to Quickly Test, Implement, and Secure Approval for AI-Driven Resume Screening

Introduction: The Challenges of Implementing New Tools in Talent Acquisition

Talent acquisition (TA) professionals often face an uphill battle when it comes to securing budget approval for new tools. Decision-makers may not fully grasp the critical impact of hiring delays, such as lost revenue opportunities or increased workloads for existing teams. Furthermore, TA leaders sometimes struggle to present a compelling business case that validates the need for investment. Even when approval is granted, navigating additional hurdles—like selecting the right tool, ensuring it meets compliance requirements, and coordinating with legal teams—can be time-consuming and frustrating. The result? Valuable time is spent on bureaucracy instead of capturing the benefits of a new tool. At Brainner, we designed our pilot program to simplify this process. Our goal is to help TA teams quickly validate our product, secure approvals, and begin saving time immediately—all in just 1-2 weeks.

The Brainner Pilot Program: A Streamlined Path to Success

Our four-stage pilot program is tailored to address the specific challenges TA professionals face. Here’s how it works:

1. Demo Session (30 Minutes)

In this introductory session, our sales and customer success teams will:

• Understand your recruiting needs and unique challenges.
• Showcase Brainner’s resume screening features and how it integrates with your ATS (Lever, Greenhouse, Ashby, Recruitee, etc.)
• Address any initial questions you have.
• Discuss your company’s approval process so we can begin preparing the necessary materials in parallel.

From day one, our team collaborates with you to set the foundation for a smooth approval process.

2. Pilot Onboarding Session (30–40 Minutes)

This session focuses on integrating Brainner resume screening software into your workflow with a real-life scenario:

• ATS Integration: We’ll seamlessly connect Brainner to your ATS (if you’re using one).
• Position Import & Criteria Customization: Import or create an open position in Brainner and customize recruiting criteria based on best practices.
• Candidate Import: We’ll import 300–400 candidates who have already applied for the position, giving you a head start on screening.

Pro Tip: Bring a real, active position to this session—you’ll leave having saved 4-5 hours of work by using Brainner immediately.

3. Pilot Trial Period (1 Week)

During the trial, your team will have full access to Brainner to:

• Create and Manage Positions: Set up new positions and receive applicants automatically.
• Re-Evaluate Candidates: Analyze resumes based on clear, objective criteria.
• Make Decisions in Real Time: Advance or archive candidates directly within Brainner.
• Assess Results: Review the quality of Brainner’s outputs and measure its impact on your workflow.

Our team will be on standby to answer questions and ensure your team gets the most out of the trial. If you’re ready to move forward, upgrading your account is seamless.

4. End-of-Trial Session (If Needed)

Once the trial ends, we’ll meet to:

• Address any remaining questions or feedback.
• Provide tailored materials to support internal approvals, including business cases, presentations, or compliance forms.
• Discuss next steps and ensure a smooth transition to full implementation.

This session ensures you’re equipped with everything needed to secure buy-in from stakeholders and move forward confidently.

Why Brainner’s Pilot Program Stands Out

Our pilot program isn’t just about validating the product—it’s about saving time and reducing roadblocks from day one. By the end of the pilot, you’ll have real-world results, quantifiable savings, and the materials to make a compelling case for Brainner within your organization. And this is just the beginning. Our dedicated customer success team will ensure that your onboarding experience is seamless, helping you capture Brainner’s full benefits immediately after implementation.
