How Pro5 cut time-to-hire from weeks to hours with Deel Talent

Pro5 is an AI-powered recruiting platform that serves staffing agencies and enterprises with intelligent, automated sourcing. Even with cutting-edge tech, Pro5 kept running into the same problem: clients couldn’t move fast enough to keep up.

Pro5 had the talent pipelines, but the kickoff process dragged. Scattered emails, WhatsApp threads, and back-and-forth calls were needed just to agree on scope and fees, costing days before a single resume could be shared.

"Before Deel Talent, we were managing multiple communication channels just to get aligned with clients. It slowed us down, and more importantly, slowed the client down." - Nuno Covas, Co-Founder of Pro5.

After a long-standing and strong relationship with Deel, Pro5 was invited to pilot Deel Talent early. Thanks to their existing presence in the Deel ecosystem, the setup was fast and intuitive—within hours of receiving their first match, they were uploading qualified candidates.

"In one case, we had a contract signed, a client call scheduled, and a vetted candidate submitted—all in eight hours. We were then able to close two roles within days—positions the client had been struggling to fill for weeks. That level of speed and accuracy just wasn’t possible before." Nuno Covas, Co-Founder of Pro5.

By centralizing communications and workflows in Deel Talent, Pro5 eliminated the friction that slowed early recruiting conversations. Instead of bouncing between tools, everything from job details to candidate uploads to client feedback lived in one place, cutting delays and keeping things moving.

"We’re able to show our value right away, which helps us close more clients. Deel Talent is a no-brainer." — Nuno Covas, Co-Founder, Pro5

Plus, Deel’s impact goes beyond speed—it’s opening new markets. Deel Talent makes it easy for Pro5 to work with Deel clients anywhere in the world, helping both sides win more business.
