How to Run an AI Phone Screen

AI. AI Phone Screener initiates outbound AI phone screens, so no recruiter has to dial.

Before you start

The role needs a phone screen stage in its pipeline. See Design your hiring pipeline.

Enable phone screening for a role

Confirm the phone screen stage is on for the role’s pipeline.

Trigger the call

Start the AI phone call to a candidate.

AI conducts the structured call

The agent runs the screen without a human on the line.

Review the call report

Read the AI-generated phone screen report.

Advance or reject

Move the candidate forward, or close them out.

Does a recruiter join the call?

No. The AI agent conducts the entire call; you review the report afterward.

What happens if the candidate doesn't answer?

See Understand Scoring Gates for how incomplete sessions are handled.
