Version conflicts become a daily tax

Once more than a couple of people are updating the same sheet, "who has the latest version" starts costing real time — usually first noticed when two recruiters both reach out to the same candidate.

Nothing is queryable

Questions like "how many candidates are mid-screening for this client" or "who dropped off and where" are trivial in a system built for it, and nearly impossible to answer quickly in a spreadsheet once volume passes a few dozen active candidates.

Handoffs lose context

When a recruiter is out, covering their roles means reconstructing status from chat threads and memory. A shared screening pipeline keeps that context attached to the candidate, not the person.
