What is AI phone screening?
AI phone screening is a first-round call conducted by conversational AI. Screened asks about role-specific experience, availability, and salary expectations, then follows up on the answers. Your team reviews the transcript and assessment in Screened or through a supported ATS integration.
Teams use AI phone screening to replace first-round calls, handle high-volume hiring, and hear candidates explain their experience in their own language. Your team sets the requirements, and every score is explained so you can review the reasons.
Works automatically with resume screening
After resume screening ranks your applicants, choose who to invite or set rules to send invitations automatically. Review the phone screen assessment in Screened or your connected ATS.
