Questions about Event & Campus Recruiting Solution?
What kind of devices is compatible with Rakuna Recruit?
Rakuna Recruit mobile app is now available on the Apple App Store and Android Play Store. Users can deploy the app on iOS and Android devices.
How does the OCR technology work?
Rakuna’s Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which is AI-based and specifically designed for recruiting, automatically parses the following information from paper resumes:
Full Name (required) / Email (required)School / Institution (if applicable) / Major (if applicable) / GPA (if applicable) / Graduation date (if applicable)
In case of low-quality snapshots, our team of Event Operators will assist the process and notify customers of unidentified candidates via email.
How long does it take for the parsing to be done? (for the information to show up on the My Candidate’s list)
Snapshots are handled in batch, and processing time may vary depending on the quantity, image quality, etc. But the parsing job has always been completed shortly after an event is over. Therefore, when your team returns to your office, all the snapshots should have been processed and ready to view.
Can I use Rakuna Recruit without WiFi/Data?
Yes. When no Internet is available, you can still capture candidate information and evaluation. The app will store the data locally. Once you have a WiFi/Data connection, you can click the “cloud” symbol in the “My Candidates” screen to sync and upload all data to the cloud.See detailed instructions at our Knowledge Base.
What if candidates do not bring paper resumes?
Rakuna Recruit includes a ‘manual input’ option so you can let candidates enter their names and contact information so that you can reach out for an electronic version of their resumes after the event!
Want to process candidates even faster? Use our ‘Kiosk mode.’ Candidates can fill in the most basic information for your team to reach out to post events. Users can put kiosk mode in a ’lock state.’ Without your authentication, candidates will not be able to access other parts of the Event Recruit App, keeping your data strictly confidential.

Speed and Quality: Balancing Efficiency and Effectiveness in Retail High Volume Recruitment
The Retail Recruiting Dilemma: Speed vs. Quality
Retail recruiting presents a unique challenge: filling roles quickly to meet immediate operational demands while ensuring hires are qualified and aligned with the company’s culture. The high turnover and seasonal spikes in the retail industry often prioritize speed, but compromising on quality can lead to increased costs and lower team performance. How can recruiters strike the right balance between efficiency and effectiveness?
Pre-Screening: Filtering for Fit Early
One effective strategy is leveraging pre-screening assessments to filter candidates early in the process. Tools such as skills tests, personality questionnaires, or situational judgment exercises help identify top candidates who meet both technical and cultural fit criteria. By integrating these assessments into the application process, recruiters can save time while maintaining quality.
Employer Branding: Attracting the Right Talent Faster
A strong employer brand can be a powerful tool in high-volume recruiting. By clearly communicating your company’s values, work environment, and growth opportunities, you naturally attract candidates who align with your organizational culture. Candidates who resonate with your brand are more likely to self-select into your talent pipeline, reducing the time spent vetting mismatched applicants. Highlighting these qualities through social media, job postings, and employee testimonials can significantly enhance recruitment efficiency while maintaining quality.
Interview Processes: Speed Without Sacrificing Integrity
No optimization plan would be complete without a review of the interview process. Consider implementing structured interviews with consistent questions and scoring systems to ensure fairness and efficiency. Technology like interview scheduling software can reduce logistical delays through automated interview scheduling, or active rescheduling from candidates. While video interviews can accommodate more candidates in less time. These innovations accelerate the process without compromising its integrity.
