Timaru sits in a regional context that genuinely changes the build. Connectivity assumptions, the rhythm of the working week, the proximity of your team to your customers – none of those are details our default AI recruiting template would catch.

How we build AI recruiting for a Timaru team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Timaru business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI candidate screening.

Questions
FAQ
What's the realistic timeline for AI recruiting with a Timaru?
Most Timaru businesses have their first usable slice in week 5 or 6. We'd rather ship narrow and real than broad and aspirational – your team gets to use the thing well before the engagement is "done".
Is AI recruiting worth it for a smaller Timaru?
Often, yes – and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes – on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Time-to-shortlist drops from 3 weeks to 4 days.
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
AI recruiting is built behind a small adapter layer specifically so swapping a model provider or a data source is a one-day job, not a re-architecture. Claude, Vapi, Workable, SEEK API, Vercel are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
