Yello has announced a new partnership with Symplicity to expand candidate access for campus and early talent recruiters through AI-powered recruiting workflows. The collaboration enables employers using the Yello Campus Recruiting Agent to connect with Symplicity’s network of more than 600,000 active early talent candidates alongside additional recruiting databases and web sources.
The partnership combines Yello’s campus recruiting automation platform with Symplicity’s extensive student and early career talent network. Through the integration, recruiters using the Yello Campus Recruiting Agent can source candidates from Symplicity in addition to their existing applicant tracking systems, Yello databases, WayUp, and other web-based recruiting channels.
The companies stated that the collaboration is designed to modernize traditional campus recruiting workflows by helping recruiters proactively identify, engage, and schedule interviews with qualified candidates before career events begin.
"Campus recruiting has been built around showing up to events and hoping the right candidates visit your booth. Yello flips that model," said Michael Megerian, Chief Revenue Officer at Yello. "The Yello Campus Recruiting Agent handles the heavy lifting of building and managing your events, finding best-fit candidates, outreach, and interview scheduling so your recruiters don't have to. With the agent, you show up to events with an interview schedule full of candidates who actually fit your roles."
Symplicity’s network includes students actively engaged through university career centers and employability programs. By integrating this candidate pool into Yello’s recruiting platform, employers gain broader visibility into early talent pipelines while improving outreach and engagement strategies.
"Symplicity's network represents some of the most engaged early talent anywhere — students who are actively building their careers through the campus career centers they trust," said Matt Small, President & CEO of Symplicity. "Bringing that pool into the Yello Campus Recruiting Agent opens doors for students and gives employers access to candidates they simply couldn't reach before."
The partnership reflects growing demand for AI-powered recruitment technologies that streamline campus hiring, automate sourcing tasks, and improve candidate matching across competitive talent markets.
The integration highlights how AI-driven recruiting platforms are reshaping early talent acquisition strategies for enterprises and universities. By automating sourcing, outreach, event management, and scheduling processes, HR teams can reduce manual workloads while improving hiring efficiency and candidate experience.
Yello stated that its platform is purpose-built for early talent recruitment, offering capabilities across recruitment planning, sourcing, event management, and operational analytics. Symplicity continues to focus on student engagement, employability outcomes, and skills-based hiring through its AI-powered higher education platform.
As organizations continue investing in workforce development and campus recruitment technology, partnerships like this demonstrate how AI and data-driven recruitment platforms are helping employers connect with qualified candidates more effectively and at scale.
