Precision Hiring, Powered by AI
See how the Recruitment Agent uncovers hidden potential.
Step 01
Write the job description.
Whether you’re backfilling or growing your team, you need to draft and post your job description.
✦ Power-Up
Generate in seconds.
Simply describe the role or upload a draft, and the Recruitment Agent will instantly generate a comprehensive job description, recommend a salary range, and build deep scoring rubrics. The Agent uses these benchmarks to immediately begin probing for soft skills and cultural alignment in every interaction.
Step 02
Design your hiring framework.
Recruitment isn’t one-size-fits-all. You need a process that reflects the seniority of the role and the specific vetting steps your team requires.
✦ Power-Up
Activate your intelligent hiring partner.
Every role is unique; use the platform to build custom hiring stages that include dedicated AI screening checkpoints. You choose exactly when and how the Recruitment Agent is involved, whether it’s a first-pass screen or a deep-dive interview, giving you complete control.
Step 03
Review your candidates.
Reviewing candidates is an onerous process. Inboxes quickly pile up with hundreds of applications that often sound the same, making it nearly impossible to manually spot standout talent without hours of repetitive work.
✦ Power-Up
Universal applicant scoring.
As applications roll in from any source, the Recruitment Agent instantly cross-references every profile against your success rubrics. High-potential individuals are identified the moment they enter your system, ensuring fairer, faster, and more objective shortlisting decisions from day one.
Step 04
Build your shortlist.
The manual effort of moving candidates from “New” to “Shortlisted” is where most hiring slows down. You need a way to filter the noise and focus only on the candidates that suit your needs.
✦ Power-Up
Auto screening and shortlisting.
Strong matches can progress to your shortlist automatically. For candidates who show potential but require further vetting, the Recruitment Agent initiates AI screening calls. By only advancing those who meet your specific criteria to the Shortlist stage, the Agent allows you to focus purely on the best matches instead of manually reading every application.
Step 05
Conduct initial interviews.
On paper, your applicants all look like a good fit, but you want to dig deeper to help uncover who your top candidates are. You need to look past the buzzwords and understand a candidate’s actual problem-solving abilities and soft skills.
✦ Power-Up
AI video interviews.
See the person, not the CV. The Agent conducts interactive video interviews with your shortlisted candidates to uncover the human elements of their experience. Every session is summarised with sentiment analysis and performance notes, giving you a deep-dive look at the person behind the paper before you even meet them.
Step 06
Onboard with speed and precision.
The hiring journey doesn’t end at a signed contract. You need to turn your chosen candidate into a productive, engaged employee without the typical first-week “paperwork lag.”
✦ Power-Up
From applicant to employee in one click.
Move new hire data instantly to your HR platform without re-typing. No switching tools. Just faster, smarter hiring, fully integrated with your HR system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our AI recruitment agent.
Traditional phone screens are time-consuming and often inconsistent. The Recruitment Agent acts as an automated interviewer, allowing you to screen hundreds of candidates simultaneously rather than one by one. It ensures every candidate is asked the exact same role-specific questions and is scored against the same rubric, saving recruiters approximately 30 – 45 minutes per applicant while providing more detailed insights than a 10-minute phone call.
Actually, it often improves it. High-volume hiring often leads to “ghosting” or slow response times. Asynchronous video interviewing gives candidates the flexibility to complete their interview 24/7, whenever they feel most confident – without playing phone tag. It ensures every applicant you choose to screen with the AI interviewer gets a fair chance to be heard, rather than just being judged on a resume alone.
Human screening is prone to unconscious bias (hiring based on “gut feel” or rapport). The Recruitment Agent mitigates this by using structured interviewing techniques. It evaluates every video response against a transparent, pre-set scoring rubric based strictly on the job description. This ensures candidates are ranked based on the relevance and quality of their answers, not on their background or demographics.
Yes. While the Recruitment Agent analyses your job description to instantly generate relevant motivational, behavioural, and situational questions, you maintain full control. You can edit, delete, or add your own custom questions and adjust the scoring criteria before sending the invite to candidates. The AI does the heavy lifting; you make the final decisions.
Yes, they are designed to work together as a complete AI recruitment workflow. You can use SmartMatch to instantly source qualified candidates, and then immediately invite your shortlist to a Recruitment Agent screening with a single click. This allows you to go from an empty pipeline to a shortlist of pre-vetted, interviewed candidates in a fraction of the standard time.
