Introducing AI Interviewer: Reduce application spam, build connections, and find top talent faster
Hey recruiters, does it feel like every time you post a new job opening your inbox fills up faster than ever with applicants? You’re not alone: According to LinkedIn the number of applications submitted through the platform has risen by over 45 percent this year.
On the one hand, it’s great to have a large pool of candidates to source great talent from, but when recruiters are overwhelmed by application spam there is a greater chance that your ideal candidate might just slip through the cracks. Not only does application spam force recruiters to waste their time on repetitive administrative tasks, it also reduces efficiency when screening an applicant pool.
That’s where AI recruiting software comes in. We’re excited to launch AI Interviewer, which enables recruiters to screen candidates at scale so that you can spend your time focusing on what matters most: finding and hiring that diamond in the rough.
Screen thousands of applications, automatically
Unlock the power of AI Interviewer by connecting your applicant tracking system (ATS) to Elly, and turn that daunting queue into the top matches from your ideal candidate profile. AI Interviewer pulls in all of your open roles and applicants for each role, and pre-generates screener questions based on the description. If you need to get more specific, these questions can always be manually edited by a recruiter.
When you are ready to let AI Interview begin screening candidates, simply flip the switch and Elly will begin reaching out to candidates to set up 10-15 minute AI Interview screens. The best part is that your calendar will remain clear during the candidate screening process, as AI Interview handles every screener interview for you. Go ahead and enjoy that long lunch at last.
After each applicant screen, AI Interview generates a score for the candidate based on how their responses, resume, and application matches the job description so that you can hone in on the right candidates for the role.
Offload your administrative tasks with AI Interviewer
Every recruiter knows that the end of a candidate screen is just the beginning. From collating notes, to planning next steps, and doing the calendar block dance, recruiters often get mired in tedious admin tasks that are actually best suited for AI.
Elly removes a lot of the administrative burden of recruiting, such as candidate writeups for hiring managers and scheduling follow-up interviews. After the call, Elly will prepare a candidate profile and screening score. This includes a summary about the candidate based on their resume, as well as notes from the call.
With the applicant screening complete, Elly will facilitate next steps by scheduling kick off calls with approved candidates and provide candidate overviews directly in Slack so you never need to make a last minute scramble before an interview starts.
Plus, everything will stay in sync with your ATS including notes, approvals, and rejections so that your team can stay on track and make sure you are hitting your hiring goals.
Go beyond enhanced applications into authentic experiences
This might come as a surprise, but in a recent study 78% of job applicants actually chose an AI screener over a human screener, while also giving the AI screener an equal NPS score as a human afterwards. The reason why? Because AI-led interviews tended to be more comprehensive in defining the role and expectations, and on average covered more topics.
At the start of every screening, AI Interviewer can provide a candidate with an overview of what will be discussed, talk more about the role, and set expectations before diving into the screening questions. This gives candidates the opportunity to ask questions freely and lessens the risk of bias. Plus, it gives recruiters a bigger picture of a candidate's profile through natural language conversations, and digs deeper than enhanced application.
With AI Interviewer, Elly helps scale recruiting teams to meet today’s demands, and candidates still get a one-on-one experience where they can authentically tell their story.
