Purpose-Built AI for Construction Hiring Teams
Arcoro AI is a purpose-built tool integrated into construction hiring workflows that automates repetitive tasks like writing job descriptions, posting requisitions, screening applicants, and retrieving employee data, thereby reducing administrative burdens, speeding up hiring during peak seasons, and allowing hiring teams to focus on people while maintaining control over decisions and ensuring fairness, compliance, and data security.
What slows construction hiring down during peak season? Too many manual tasks. Many contractors hire and onboard multiple employees a week; some companies onboard as many as 10 new workers each day.
Writing each job description from scratch, manually reading every resume, and asking others to pull reports whenever a question arises, only adds to your administrative burden and delays getting new workers on the jobsite.
These slow, inconsistent approaches create real risk around fairness, compliance, and data security, likely leading you to ask yourself, “Isn’t there a better way to do this?”
Arcoro AI can do the tasks that take up most of your time, allowing you to focus on what really matters: your people.
What’s Arcoro AI?
Arcoro AI helps construction teams handle repetitive construction hiring before and during peak season and speeds up workforce administration inside the Arcoro solutions you’re already using, like Hire and Manage. Right now, Arcoro AI is focused on those high-friction moments during the hiring process: creating job descriptions, posting requisitions, and screening applicants through Hire’s ATS. Arcoro AI will also pull answers about employees from your stored company data, without getting anyone else involved, so no waiting on support or IT.
The goal of Arcoro AI is to support administrators, recruiters, and operations leaders by removing busy work, not taking over their jobs. Arcoro lets you stay in control of how you use AI. The result is meaningful time back each week, while keeping you firmly in the driver’s seat for every decision that affects an employee or candidate.
How Arcoro AI Frees Up Your Time
Woven into the hiring workflows you’re already using in our Hire solution, Arcoro AI automates the time-consuming (but necessary) tasks that steal hours out of your day.
Write Job Descriptions in Seconds
Writing job descriptions from scratch or updating outdated templates takes time and increases the risk of missing important compliance language. Our AI Job Description Writing Assistant generates job descriptions inside the ATS using the details you’d normally type into a template.
This feature will:
- Auto-generate a complete job description from a plain language summary of what is required
- Rewrite content to make edits like using a more conversational tone with a single click
- Translate job descriptions into Spanish automatically
- Refine generation by answering follow-up questions when the role is broad (e.g., “What kind of welder?”)
Automatically Scan Applications
When applications pile up during hiring surges, recruiters need a faster way to identify qualified candidates without sacrificing consistency. Our AI Resume Scanner allows recruiters to quickly match applications with the skills required, without ever ranking, scoring, or deciding for the recruiter.
Recruiters can:
- See a 3–4 sentence Candidate Snapshot for each applicant directly in the applicant list
- Review a visual checklist of the applicant’s skills detected on each resume
- Quickly assess fit without opening every resume individually
- Automatically translate non-English resume information into English with a click of a button
This feature helps hiring managers quickly identify candidates whose experience aligns with the role requirements, giving you the ability to make consistent, defensible shortlisting decisions in a fraction of the time.
Get the Answers You Need Now
When you need employee information, you need it now. Waiting on support or IT only bottlenecks the process.
The AI Admin Assistant lets authorized users ask questions in plain language and pull answers directly from live workforce data across Arcoro’s platform.
Its conversational interface lets you use plain language to get immediate, accurate answers without having to build a report. What used to take hours, or even days, is now immediate.
Admins can:
- Ask workforce composition questions in natural language (e.g., “How many new employees do I have?”, “List all of my contractors”, “Show me employees by EEO-1 job category”)
- Get answers drawn from live employee data, without navigating multiple modules or filing a report request, making it easy for every user
- Ask questions of the broader stored company data, not just employee profile data
- Query employee timecard information like time records, shifts, expenses, time punches, approvals, and time off in read-only mode
- Trust that responses are automatically scoped to only the employees they are authorized to see in Arcoro Time (formerly ExakTime)
The Payoff
Utilizing Arcoro AI will allow you to spend less time buried in hiring and admin work and more time getting qualified workers hired and crews staffed, so you can focus on running the business and engaging your people.
This means you’ll be able to:
- Stand up high-quality, inclusive job postings in minutes, not hours
- Move qualified applicants to a hiring decision faster
- Get answers from your company's data without building reports or filing tickets to confirm compliance and accuracy
Everyone can use more time back in their day. Arcoro AI helps you stay ahead of hiring deadlines, so your company is ready for the work ahead.
