How it works
- 1
Candidates apply on your careers page
Branded page or embeddable widget. Resume parsed on upload; gaps, overlaps and inflated titles are flagged for the interviewer to probe, never used to reject.
- 2
They interview right away, their way
Voice in the browser, a phone call, WhatsApp, or text chat. English or Mexican Spanish. No account, no app, no timers that punish slow speakers.
- 3
A real interview, not a questionnaire
25 to 40 minutes: resume walk-through with verification, STAR deep-dives with adaptive follow-ups, role scenarios, and consistency checks woven in.
- 4
Your team decides
Scorecard with rubric anchors and quoted evidence, verification report, integrity signals, a 5-sentence summary and the three best questions for the human interview. Nobody is declined without a person clicking decline.
Live demo: two employers, three roles
