Case Study: Cogent Biosciences achieves 92% faster applicant review and rapid hiring growth with LeverTRM (Lever)
A Lever Case Study
Why Cogent Biosciences Switched from a Leading Enterprise Software to LeverTRM
Cogent Biosciences, a Cambridge-based biotechnology company focused on precision therapies, faced rapid growth and needed to more than double its headcount. Their existing ATS (SmartRecruiters) couldn’t handle the hiring volume: slow resume downloads and cumbersome applicant updates wasted recruiters’ time and blocked scalable hiring.
Senior People Partner Doug Shipton led a switch to LeverTRM, using its Fast Resume Review, streamlined scheduling, integrations (e.g., Zoom, Goodhire) and reporting to speed screening and coordinate interviews. The change cut resume review time by 92%, brought average time to fill to 33 days, helped drive a 492% headcount increase in 12 months, and returned hours per recruiter to productive work.
