Turning talent data into a strategic advantage with integrated planning and real-time insights

To support growth and hiring for competitive roles, Genesis Molecular AI needed a better way to manage headcount and hiring. With CandorIQ, they moved beyond spreadsheets to a fully integrated system that aligned Talent, HR, and Finance—giving them the tools to hire strategically, reduce manual work, and quantify the impact of talent decisions on the bottom line.

Challenge

Genesis Molecular AI needed a more connected, consistent way to plan for headcount, support high-stakes hiring, and prepare for compensation cycles. Before CandorIQ, headcount planning, recruiting decisions, and compensation reviews were tracked across spreadsheets and siloed systems—making it difficult for Talent, HR, and Finance to stay aligned. Double-and triple-checks were common, and manual processes introduced delays, inconsistencies, and downstream errors. Without a centralized platform, it was challenging to forecast accurately, connect hiring and pay decisions to financial planning, or build a cohesive, strategic approach to workforce growth.

Pain points

  • Siloed Headcount Tracking
  • Slow, Manual Reporting
  • Limited Visibility Into Role Structure
  • Fragmented Systems (ATS, HRIS, financial data)
  • Inefficient Compensation Cycles
