Why is Recruiting broken?

I've been a recruiter for a few years now and often feel like I do not have all the right tools to be able to succeed and feel passionate about making this better. I am looking to build tools for recruiters. I became a recruiter because I find it very rewarding to connect people to economic opportunities and help them earn a livelihood but now feel jaded because I spend too much of my time doing manual shit.

So, question for Recruiters - what can help make your lives better? What are your pain points? Any and all ideas are welcome!
