Case Study: AI Voice Interviewing & Candidate Scoring System for a Recruiting Company

Client Overview

A nationwide recruiting firm handling 2,500+ applicants per month struggled with time-consuming screening calls, inconsistent evaluations, and delays in identifying top candidates.

They wanted a faster, more consistent, more analytical way to pre-screen applicants — without increasing staff.


Challenge

1. High Volume of Incoming Applicants

Recruiters were overwhelmed with:

  • Repetitive screening questions
  • Scheduling interviews
  • Leaving voicemails
  • Inconsistent phone screens depending on the recruiter

2. No Objective Scoring System

Candidate assessments varied drastically:

  • Different recruiters → different impressions
  • No standardized scoring
  • No analytics on tone, clarity, or response quality

3. Delayed Hiring Timelines

Screening often took:

  • 3–5 days to contact candidates
  • 15–30 minutes per phone screen
  • Hours of weekly admin work

Companies lost strong candidates due to slow screening.
