What is an AI phone interview?

An AI phone interview on GetHirePlus is a screening call run by an AI voice agent instead of a recruiter. It phones the candidate, says up front that it is an automated interview, asks the questions you set for the role, and returns a full transcript with per-question scores. It runs around the clock in 8+ languages.

From job post to scored transcript
without booking a single call

Set up once per role. GetHirePlus handles every call automatically, with no recruiter scheduling.

01
Build your question bank

Define role-specific questions and the scoring criteria for each answer. You control what the AI asks and how it evaluates responses, from must-have skills to culture signals.

02
AI calls the candidate

The moment a candidate reaches the screening stage, GetHirePlus initiates the voice call. The AI discloses it is an automated interview, then walks the candidate through your questions naturally.

03
Score and transcript delivered automatically

When the call ends, GetHirePlus generates a full transcript, scores each answer against your rubric, and pushes the result to your ATS. Your team reviews ready-to-act summaries, not raw call notes.

What the AI phone screen
does for each candidate

Built for teams that screen hundreds of candidates without the headcount to match.

📝

Full transcript + timestamps

Every word is transcribed with timestamps. Reviewable, searchable, and shareable with hiring managers in seconds.

⭐

AI-generated scores

Each answer is scored against your rubric automatically. Hiring managers see a ranked shortlist, not a pile of notes to interpret.

🔗

ATS integration

Transcripts, scores and candidate status are written to the GetHirePlus applicant tracking system. No copy-pasting or manual updates.

⚖️

Structured and consistent

Every candidate answers the same questions in the same order. No interviewer variation. Comparable outputs that make shortlisting objective.

🔔

Candidate disclosure

GetHirePlus tells every candidate at the start of the call that they are speaking to an AI. Our guide covers when you have to tell candidates about AI interviews.

📊

Pipeline analytics

Track completion rates, average scores by role, and screening-to-shortlist conversion across all your open positions in one dashboard.

Built for high-volume hiring

It helps most when a role gets more applicants than your team can call. How much time it saves depends on volume, role and how your process is set up.

High-volume roles

Sales, customer support, field operations and retail roles often get dozens or hundreds of applicants per cycle. The AI runs the first call with each of them, and recruiters start from a ranked list.

Global and multilingual hiring

Expanding into a new market? GetHirePlus screens candidates in their language without requiring local recruiting staff on day one.

Early-stage and startup teams

When every team member wears multiple hats, automated phone screening frees up engineers and operators to stay focused while hiring still moves.

The phone screen usually sits in the middle of the funnel. AI resume screening decides who gets a call, and candidates who do well move on to a proctored skills assessment or a live video interview with your team.

Questions about AI Phone Interviews

Everything hiring teams and candidates ask before getting started.

What is an AI phone interview?
An AI phone interview is a structured voice screening call conducted by an AI agent instead of a human recruiter. The AI calls the candidate, asks role-specific questions from a custom question bank, records and transcribes answers in real time, and scores each response against a predefined rubric. GetHirePlus AI phone interviews run 24/7, and call length depends on how many questions you set. The scored transcript is saved to the candidate record automatically.
Does GetHirePlus support multiple languages for phone screening?
Yes. GetHirePlus supports 8+ languages, allowing you to interview candidates in their preferred language and expand your talent pool across geographies without adding multilingual recruiters.
Can I use my own interview questions?
Yes. GetHirePlus lets you build a custom question bank for each role. You define which questions the AI asks, set the expected answer themes or keywords, and configure the scoring rubric. The AI follows your structure precisely for every candidate.
Are AI phone interviews fair and unbiased?
They make screening more consistent: every candidate gets the same questions in the same order and is scored against the same rubric. That reduces variation between interviewers, but it does not remove bias on its own, so review your questions and rubric and check results by role. GetHirePlus does not use voice biometrics or demographic signals for scoring; evaluation is based on answer content against your criteria.
How does AI phone screening integrate with an ATS?
GetHirePlus has its own applicant tracking system. After each call, the transcript, scores and candidate status are written to the candidate record, so nobody has to type up call notes or move the candidate by hand.
Are candidates told they are speaking to an AI?
Yes. GetHirePlus tells every candidate at the start of the call that they are completing an automated screening interview. Disclosure rules differ by location, so check the ones that apply where you hire; our guide on telling candidates about AI interviews is a starting point.
How is GetHirePlus different from HireVue or iMocha for phone screening?
