Leadership Commentary

“Small and mid-sized businesses shouldn't have to choose between speed and accuracy when it comes to hiring,” said Gershon Goren, Founder and CEO, Cangrade. “Our AI candidate screening platform paired with UKG Ready gives growing organizations the same precision screening capabilities that power decisions for the world's largest employers within the tools they're already using every day.”

For growing organizations, every hire carries significant weight. When a wrong hire joins a ten-person team, the impact is immediate and costly. Yet most growing organizations are still screening candidates the same way they always have, with resumes, credentials, and gut instinct. Cangrade's expansion into UKG Ready changes that by embedding AI-powered candidate screening directly into the HR workflows that smaller organizations already rely on.

Platform Integration Benefits

Organizations using both platforms can now build custom AI-powered screening flows instantly, with candidate data moving seamlessly between systems. This enables HR teams to get predictive performance insights at the moment they need them most. And because Cangrade's screening intelligence extends across the talent lifecycle, the data that informs a hiring decision can also shape how that employee is onboarded, developed, and retained.

UKG Ready is designed to grow with the organizations that use it, unifying HR, payroll, talent, and time management in a single, intuitive platform. By embedding Cangrade's predictive screening directly into that experience, the integration gives UKG Ready customers a faster path from job posting to confident hiring decision without disrupting the workflows their teams depend on.
