Common questions

The hiring team sets the requirements and decides how screening results are used, including any automated next steps. Screened provides assessments; the employer is responsible for hiring decisions. Ask the hiring team how your application is reviewed.

Use examples from your work to explain the skills relevant to the role, even if your job title was different. Ryan may ask follow-up questions. If important context is missing, contact the hiring team so they can consider it.

The interview uses a regular phone call. If the connection drops or you have trouble completing it, contact the company’s recruiting team for help with the next step.

Companies use Screened to review applications and run first-round screening calls. The transcript and assessment help their hiring team decide who to interview next. Response times and hiring decisions remain with that team.
