How Elly helps recruiter Melvonna Jones streamline high volume hiring at LINK Real Estate Group with fast, accurate notes

Melvonna Jones
“Elly has been one of the best things ever.”

The Problem

LINK Real Estate Group is growing quickly. As the recruiter supporting hiring across multiple regions, Melvonna Jones screens candidates for a wide mix of roles every day. One hour she is evaluating property managers, the next she is interviewing maintenance supervisors. Each position comes with its own set of responsibilities and expectations.

Before Elly, she handled every call manually. She took notes live while interviewing, tried to remember details from thirty minute conversations, and then rewrote full summaries immediately afterward so her hiring managers had the context they needed.

“It was a lot. I had to remember every detail and rewrite everything right after the call.”

When her boss encouraged her to explore tools that could make the process easier, she started looking into AI note takers. After seeing Elly on LinkedIn, she decided to try the seven-day trial.

The Solution

Melvonna tested Elly on a practice call with a friend. When her friend could not hear anything unusual on the line, she felt comfortable using it with candidates.

Her first real screening immediately validated the choice. Elly captured every part of the conversation, organized answers by template, and even handled strong accents with no issues.

“It listed everything that was said. I barely had to edit anything.”

She quickly set up templates for all her open roles, which made switching between positions much easier. Because LINK often hires for several roles at once, this was a major improvement.

A recent update that allows her to attach Elly to an ongoing call without hanging up has also become a daily advantage. Candidates often call her back unexpectedly, and she no longer needs to ask them to disconnect so she can restart the call through Elly.

The Results

With Elly, her entire workflow is faster. Instead of rewriting notes from scratch, she skims, lightly edits, and uploads. The time savings are significant, especially on high volume days.

Melvonna estimates she saves multiple hours every week in note taking and documentation.

Her hiring managers feel the difference as well. They now read her detailed, structured notes before second or final round interviews and consistently comment on their accuracy.

“They love the notes. They say they are very precise and capture everything.”

Elly has also become a trusted part of senior hiring at LINK Real Estate Group. Melvonna attaches Elly to leadership interviews so VPs and the CEO have clean documentation for every candidate.

“Elly is very efficient and so simple to use. It saves me time, gives my hiring managers everything they need, and makes every part of my day easier.”
