How Mynt builds shortlists in an hour - across tech and commercial roles
Mynt is rethinking how growing businesses manage their spending, with corporate cards and expense management built for modern teams. To keep up with the pace, they hire around 40 people a year - historically heavy on tech and product, and increasingly on commercial roles across sales, marketing, finance, and HR.
For Jessica Hägglöf, Talent Acquisition and People Specialist at Mynt, the challenge is the same on both sides of the org: find the right people fast, without losing the personal touch - and without burning the company's reputation in the process.
From mass outreach to precision sourcing
Before Talentium, Mynt had tried another sourcing tool built around mass outreach. Generic messages went out at scale, and most landed in the wrong inboxes. It worked okay for tech and not at all for commercial roles - and Jessica could feel it starting to cost Mynt more than it returned.
Recruiter was the fallback, but Jessica was tired of building search after search out of clunky filters and Boolean strings. When Talentium came up through her network, the AI-driven approach to search stood out immediately.
"I used to be stuck filtering. With Talentium I can be much more dynamic - the results come faster and they're more relevant."

30 candidates in an hour, 3 in process, one offer out
The clearest proof came with one of Mynt's hardest searches: Norwegian salespeople.
✅ 30 candidates shortlisted and contacted in 1 hour from Jessica's first search
✅ 3 candidates moved quickly into process
✅ 1 offer on the way
"Instead of reviewing hundreds of profiles, I'm reviewing dozens that actually make sense.”
Talentium + ATS: top-of-funnel meets pipeline
At Mynt, Talentium and their ATS each do what they do best. Jessica sources and makes first contact in Talentium. As soon as a candidate engages, they move into their ATS for screening, interviews, and the rest of the process - all the way to offer.
That clean handoff means no more chaotic inboxes, no more accidental double-outreach, and no more candidates getting lost between tools. Several of Mynt's recent hires started as Talentium sources before being managed through to offer in the ATS.
The direction from here is clear: as Talentium's sequencing and ATS capabilities mature further, Jessica wants to run more of the funnel - sourcing, outreach, interviews, and hire - in one place, especially since there is an ATS integration that syncs the systems both ways.
"I want the workflow to feel seamless. The less time I spend switching between tools, the more time I can spend with candidates.”
Screening inbound applicants with the same precision as sourcing
Commercial roles at Mynt tend to attract high application volume - and a large share of those applicants aren't remotely relevant to the role. That's where Talentium's ATS integration is starting to play a second role for Jessica.
Using the same prompt-style requirements she sets up for sourcing, she can now run inbound applicants through Talentium too - evaluating each CV against the criteria that matter most for the role, instantly clearing out the candidates who don't fit at all, and surfacing the strongest matches to look at first.
She's tested it on a recent role and plans to use it as a complement to Mynt's existing screening process: a faster way to triage high-volume inbound, cut the noise, save the most relevant profiles, and spend time where it actually matters - on the candidates who truly fit.
"It's the same logic as my searches - I just list my requirements, and Talentium helps me see who fits. For our high-volume commercial roles, that's going to save us a lot of time."
A partner that evolves with you
What Jessica values most isn't just the product - it's the pace it's improving at.
"When we first met a year ago, the platform was very basic. In a year, an incredible amount has happened - and our feedback has clearly shaped where it's going."
Her advice to other TA teams still leaning on legacy tools?
"AI isn't replacing recruiters. It's removing the repetitive work so we can spend more time assessing people and building relationships.”
Finally, Jessica reflects that the biggest value isn't that Talentium replaces her judgement - it's that it helps her spend it where it matters most. She believes the recruiters who succeed over the next few years won't be the ones who know the most Boolean strings. They'll be the ones who know how to combine AI with human judgement.
