FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Can AI screen CVs fairly?
It shortlists against the skills and criteria in your brief and flags candidates for a recruiter to review. People make the hiring decisions, which keeps the process fair and your judgement in control.
Will candidates know they are dealing with automation?
The assistant handles acknowledgements, scheduling and updates so no applicant is ignored, and a recruiter steps in for anything that needs a human. The aim is faster, more personal service, not less.
Does it work with Bullhorn or our ATS?
Yes. We connect to Bullhorn, Vincere, JobAdder and similar systems so screening, scheduling and updates flow straight into the CRM you already use.
