Capita to Launch AI-Powered Recruitment Service This Summer

/in /tarafından

British outsourcing firm Capita announced plans to roll out an AI-driven recruitment solution this summer, aiming to reduce hiring times from weeks to just hours. Developed in collaboration with Salesforce’s Agentforce AI, the technology automates over 200 tasks in the recruitment process, including candidate shortlisting.

Capita CEO Adolfo Hernandez explained the company hires around 10,000 people annually across various contracts and operations, often dealing with a transient workforce. The AI tool, built within the first quarter of 2025, efficiently matches qualified candidates to job specifications, allowing recruiters to focus more on final interviews and onboarding.

Salesforce highlighted Capita as the first B2B company in the UK to deploy its Agentforce AI solution, which significantly accelerates high-volume recruitment. Capita plans to fine-tune the system before a wider market launch expected this summer.

From Public Housing to Millionaire Entrepreneur: The Story of Timothy Armoo

/in /tarafından

Timothy Armoo, a 29-year-old millionaire, transformed his life from growing up in one of London’s poorest neighborhoods to selling his influencer marketing firm, Fanbytes, for an eight-figure sum. Raised on a council estate in South London amidst gang conflicts, Armoo displayed entrepreneurial skills early on, starting a tutoring business at 14. After receiving a scholarship to a private boarding school, he gained exposure to wealth and developed a drive to succeed.

At 17, he sold his first business, an online blog, for £110,000. In 2017, he co-founded Fanbytes, which connected brands with influencers for marketing campaigns. The company grew rapidly, attracting clients like Nike and Amazon, and in 2022, Armoo and his co-founders sold Fanbytes to Brainlabs, making them multi-millionaires. Armoo’s story demonstrates the power of entrepreneurship to create opportunities, regardless of background, and challenges perceptions of race in the business world.
