Senior Talent Manager at LUKOWA Group

Meet Aleksandar Stankovic

As a Head-hunter and People & Culture Manager at LUKOWA Group, I oversee recruitment across various departments, having successfully recruited 42 individuals last year alone. I also manage initiatives that enhance employee well-being, including private health insurance, Fitpass, and corporate basketball. With my expertise in finance, administration, logistics, and AI-driven recruitment tools like Teamtailor, I strive to align talent with LUKOWA’s unique corporate culture, creating a thriving environment for both our employees and the business.

What is Co-pilot?

Co-pilot is powered by the same OpenAI API that ChatGPT uses, designed to help streamline recruitment processes. It consists of a suite of AI tools, each created to simplify different stages of recruitment, including drafting job ads, summarizing candidate interviews, and suggesting interview questions based on the role etc. As the name suggests, Co-pilot acts as your ally throughout the recruitment journey. You remain the captain, fully in control, but Co-pilot is there to support you whenever needed.

What were the challenge before using Teamtailor Co-pilot?

Recruiting at LUKOWA Group used to be incredibly time-consuming, especially when dealing with high volumes of applicants or during student events like LUKOWA Academy. Writing job descriptions could take hours because I had to research similar ads and adapt them to fit our specific needs. Reviewing large numbers of resumes was also challenging, particularly when I needed to summarize candidate profiles quickly. Creating interview kits was another manual task that took a lot of time and effort to align with the skills and roles we were hiring for. The process didn’t always feel efficient, as everything was dependent on manual input, and there wasn’t a clear pattern in candidate selection.

How has Co-pilot positively impacted your recruitment process?

Co-pilot has been a game changer for us and has really helped us on many levels:

Job Description Creation: Co-pilot has transformed the way we write job descriptions. What used to take hours can now be done in just 30 seconds. It learns from our previous descriptions and generates a tailored draft right from the job title. Now, we just add a few job-specific details, saving us time and effort while ensuring everything is spot on.
Resume Summaries: Co-pilot has been a huge help in handling resume summaries, especially for high-volume events like LUKOWA Academy, making it easier to manage large numbers of applicants efficiently.
Interview Kits: Co-pilot has streamlined the process by helping select skills, weighing them, and suggesting relevant questions.

What results have you seen since using Co-pilot?

Since adopting Co-pilot, the biggest difference I’ve noticed is the reduction in administrative work. That’s freed up more of my time for important tasks like networking, engaging with more candidates, and working on other projects. Co-pilot has already transformed the way we recruit: it’s simplified tasks, improved productivity, and allowed me to focus more on strategic elements of my role. We don’t have precise statistics just yet, but it’s clear that the overall efficiency of our recruitment process has greatly improved.
