Case study: how Solera Senior Living expanded hiring capacity with Candid.
In caregiver hiring, the first employer to call usually wins the candidate. Applications arrive around the clock, and strong applicants go cold waiting for a callback.
Solera Senior Living uses Candid across 16 communities. Candid calls every new applicant within minutes of applying, day or night, runs a structured, scored interview against the role’s must-haves, and books qualified candidates straight onto a hiring manager’s calendar, all inside the ATS the team already uses.
Of every 100 candidates Candid screened between mid-March and August 2026, 60 completed a full interview and 30 were booked with a hiring manager. Conversion improves as candidates move through the funnel: 2.7% of everyone screened is hired, and 8.5% of those booked with a hiring manager. Hires are matched to payroll records, so every hire figure is a floor.
46% of interview activity happens outside weekday office hours, and Candid adds roughly 10,900 hours of screening capacity. Across Solera’s longest-running communities, hiring volume increased 13% year over year, after falling 4% the year before; open requisitions grew over the same period too.
The full two-page case study covers the hiring funnel, the definitions behind every rate, year-over-year hiring volume, and when the work happens.
